Cyberspace: First Steps

Cyberspace: First Steps

by Michael Benedikt (Author)

Synopsis

Cyberspace has been defined as an infinite artificial world where humans navigate in information-based space and as the ultimate computer-human interface . These original contributions take up the philosophical basis for cyberspace in ancient thought, the relevance of the body in virtual realities, basic communications principles for cyberspace, the coming dematerialization of architecture, the logic of graphic representation into the third dimension, the design of a noncentralized system for multiparticipant cyberspaces, the ramifications of cyberspace for future workplaces and a great deal more.
