1. A method for providing programmable virtual events, comprising:
providing, in memory of at least one server computer comprising at least one processor, a virtual environment enabling interactions between users represented by user graphical representations created from media feeds received from corresponding user cameras;
responsive to a session request received from at least one client device, setting up a virtual event session between at least two users;
obtaining an event flow rule set comprising a plurality of rules, the rule set determining an event flow sequence comprising presentation of media streams of the users in the virtual event session;
applying the event flow rule set to the media streams of the users in the virtual event session; and
responsive to the application of the event flow rule set to the media streams of the users in the virtual event session, triggering an event flow action in real time in the virtual event session,
wherein the triggered event flow action comprises modifying presentation of a media stream in the virtual event session, and
wherein the user graphical representations comprise a user 3D virtual cutout with a removed background, or a user real-time 3D virtual cutout with a removed background, or a video with a removed background, or a video without a removed background.
