Dualistic References within Virtual Environments - Deutschbauer, Arno

. .

Résumé :
Our contemporary media driven social reality represents a hybrid, not homogenous form of global perspective. Within virtual spaces, one finds increasing differentiation and aspects which establish a tendency to build new communities online, devoid of traditional identity. A globalized media communication system, generates multicultural platforms, in which fundamental aspects of diffusion or distraction shape contemporary social and collective thinking, and thus, new forms of reality perception. We find ourselves in a continuous development process creating complex online communities based on multiplex identities. Our global hybrid multicultural lifestyle, creates unique possibilities to reflect on our own inherent limitations, within our used convergent virtual environments. These environments create unique hybridity and a significant distance to our own cultural background, in which we as user are able to reflect our habitual behaviors. For the first time in human history, a multicultural collective consciousness is emerging within enormous potential by its peculiar form driven by global, software-based communication and increasing cultural diversity.
