Virtual reality

"Virtual reality was mystically conceived in mathematician Vernor Vinge’s sci-fi writings, and, famously, inhabited by the vodou loa in William Gibson’s Count Zero; however its genealogy goes back to origins in West African Vodun that precede Western computation, Leibniz’s binary code and geomancy by centuries perhaps."

The Reality of the Virtual is a 2004 documentary film lecture by Slovenian philosopher Slavoj Žižek. Recorded in a single day by Ben Wright. The discourse concerns the concept of "real effects produced, generated, by something which does not yet fully exist, which is not yet fully actual", with numerous examples from psychoanalysis, politics, sociology, physics and popular culture.[1]
