Ideally, we'd eventually achieve a balance of the extreme polarities, but I do see a shift from information age to the #ExperientialAgepic.twitter.com/zqsvfhgL4p
I say we're moving from the Information Age to the #ExperientialAge.
But what's that mean?
Here are some metaphors & emergent properties:pic.twitter.com/AnDSXLu7wB

Yes, but only 1 part of the world. Other part seems destined to slip further behind, and apart. Could this b the fork in the road 4 humans?
-
Excellent point. Diversity & equal access to immersive tech is a major open question / needs $$ & attn. Smart phone market offers some hope.

Kent, what do you mean by "fated" in the Information Age. Curious!
-
When you read a book, you have no ability to change the outcome of the story. It's fated. More expression of free will in
#ExperientialAge -
Not the best example imho. Isn't that reducing story to a plot, and overlooking various contexts of reading?
-
There's always inner subjective context, but what's different w/ video games & VR is ability to change objective reality of story w/ agency
-
Fair enough. Literature/media scholars would challenge your notion of objective though.
-
You always have choice to impact your subjective experience & internal meaning making process. You can't impact outcome of most movies/books

This need s definitely further thougts. Similar shifts in so many parts of society.
#VR and other realities are just a metaphor for that. -
Yep, I see many indicators both in tech & pop culture that we're moving to the
#ExperientialAge. More in this talk:https://youtu.be/FP9CXBVmO4w

Any good examples of experiential ways to express this shift?
-
The most obvious is any VR or AR or immersive theater experience. I go into a lot more detail into this here:https://youtu.be/FP9CXBVmO4w

I've really been appreciating your insights and concrete metaphors on this shift. The age of Aquarius is upon us.
