In todays lecture we looked at virtual philosophy. The question as to wheether the virtual world is infact a real world in the sense that it is part of of our everyday life. In the movie the matrix which was made back i the mid nineties, this questions was brought to the large or wider audience. It seemed to suggst the way in which technology was heading and therfore the direrction in which all our lives were heading. the french philosophers , Dleeuze and Guatttanis ideas were discussed and it was proposed that if there ideas were supported then virtual reality is infact or at least is probably best considered a real and genuine part of our lives. Finally the video on "Second life" also prooposed that all of us would have a "second life or a virtual life. further supporting the concept that the virtual is infact real.
