The Metaverse and the Embodied Machine
In this and the next episode I talk about how technological convergence drives the metaverse, the pursuit of virtual embodiment and how Lyotard might think of the metaverse. The texts this week are Lyotard's "Can Thoughts Go Without a Body." Also, Mark Zuckerberg's interview with The Verge is worth a look.
During the recording my mic quit, so the last 10m or so were automatically recorded by my laptop mic. The audio is still serviceable, and a salutary lesson to check your sound source when you go back recording after finishing lunch!
These lectures are brought to you by Staffordshire University's Philosophy team. Come study on our MA in Continental Philosophy via this link. Or, join our MA in Philosophy of Nature, Information and Technology via this link. Find out more about me here. January and September intakes available either F/T or P/T.
