How to focus my next Harbin book, and building a 3D, interactive, film realistic virtual Harbin as field site, when these information technologies develop as part of a virtual earth and which don’t quite exist yet.
Since at least 2 films have been shown daily for decades at Harbin, how further to add the an interactive, film realism in the Oculus Rift of both these films – can we enter into them visually, and eventually with a brain wave headset built in even, as well as enter into virtual Harbin from our bathtubs for a warm water relaxation response meditation?
If this interactive, film realistic virtual Harbin were already built and done well, what would be my first foci in fieldwork/pool play?
Pool play that works in the Oculus Rift, and meditation and bliss and hanging out and exploring vis-a-vis talking and language between people and avatars in these devices will be fascinating.
How to make it possible to wiki build virtual Harbin in an ongoing way – so multiple voices and people might shape it …
... for ‘ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy,’ an idea I’ve explored most fully in my blog –
