By projecting our sense of self into intangible, conceptual representations while neglecting our transparent senses, we are risking becoming disembodied, two dimensional. In our virtual worlds we may be gaining certain kind of freedoms, but at the same time we are sacrificing the profound depth of human experience, one that is fundamental to our wellbeing, as previous examples showed us. In our obsession to chase “other worlds”, we are choosing a voluntary exile from the flesh of reality, enamoured instead with surface and appearance. Floating in cyberspace, we are becoming lost, disoriented, no longer fully active agents enmeshed in the fabric of reciprocity, responsibility and interaction, enacted on our common ground. Our pain may be reduced but so is our joy. The more disembodied our world becomes the less meaningful it is. With our diminishing sensory skills, we are simultaneously weakening our ability to access our own emotional worlds, thus also losing our ability to understand and empathise with each other.
