“Virtual Reality” Articles

How do we make sense of truth in a world where deepfakes are leaping from the big screen into our homes?

Ultimately, the problem with VR was that it, like so much that happened in the nineties, put technology ahead of content.

Each week Drew Dixon and Tyler Burns interview a CaPC writer about a recent article they have authored in order to go deeper into the subject matter. This week Derek Hiebert joins the duo to talk about his article, Ready Player One and the Escape From Reality and the value in escapism.

In Ready Player One, humanity longs for the inner self to be unshackled from captivity to a meaningless and confining real world.

Technology promises to give us our own personal utopia. But is that better than God’s shalom?

All is not lost on this epic episode of The CaPC 25 for 2016 as Amanda Wortham and C.T. Casberg join Jonathan and Sarah for this week’s episode.

Drew and Tyler chat with Stephen Addcox about the longing for a better world that is present both in pop culture’s handling of virtual reality.

Like the world we live in, the virtual worlds we create are just a shadow of a better world to come.
