-Neal Stephenson, Snow Crash
The Metaverse:
“Developers can build their own small streets feeding off of the main one. They can build buildings, parks, signs, as well as things
that do not exist in Reality, such as vast hovering overhead light shows, special neighborhoods where the rules of three-
dimensional spacetime are ignored…”
The Future
OASIS:
“… contained thousands of simulated worlds.”
“… the world’s biggest public library… access to every book ever
written, every song ever recorded, and every movie, television show, videogame, and piece of artwork ever created.”
“Chat rooms were stand-alone simulations - temporary virtual spaces
that avatars could access from anywhere in OASIS.”-Ernest Cline, Ready Player One
