- Jaron Lanier
Legendary computer scientist, visionary, artist and Virtual Reality pioneer Jaron Lanier introduces his new book, Dawn of the New Everything. In it he tells the extraordinary story of how in just over three decades Virtual Reality went from being a dream to a reality – and how it will continue to transform us and our world. He argues that VR is the most effective device ever invented for researching what a human being actually is – and how we think and feel.
Blending scientific investigation, philosophical thought-experiment and a memoir of a life lived at the epicentre of digital innovation, the ‘father of Virtual Reality’ explains how we are standing on the threshold of an entirely new realm of human creativity, expression, communication and experience.
