Blog Prompt #4


Freed from the constraints of "Architecture School", I would hone my programming skills and develop a software/hardware/mind/body interface that would allow the user to live indefinitely in a semi-abstract 3-dimensional universe. Aspects of the world would be controlled by thought, however many variables, such as smell and temperature, would be determined by ones location in the virtual environment.


The world would develop its own species and ecologies, perpetually existing even while no human is interacting/existing within. The laws of physics in terms of light and gravity would inform but by no means dictate the world. I can only imagine what could be constructed when freed from the constraints of economic, cultural, academic, physical and temporal laws and forces.
