di Blake Pieck (Autore)

Blake Pieck, 2025

Virtual reality and cyberspace lie at the heart of cyberpunk's exploration of digital frontiers. They are the imagined landscapes where minds connect to networks, identities shift, and information becomes both weapon and commodity. From immersive simulations to vast online realms, these environments define how characters in cyberpunk escape, resist, or are controlled. Within the larger cyberpunk tradition, virtual reality links closely with artificial intelligence, surveillance, and human-machine interfaces. It reflects the growing presence of digital culture in everyday life while asking questions about authenticity, autonomy, and the meaning of experience. By studying this theme, readers uncover how cyberpunk anticipates debates about online identity, virtual economies, and the merging of physical and digital worlds. This dictionary organizes the essential terminology of virtual reality and cyberspace into structured entries. It includes terms related to neural immersion, avatars, data havens, virtual architecture, and the cultures that thrive inside networks. Each entry is written with depth and clarity, offering guidance for students, support for educators, and a dependable reference for writers and researchers. The dictionary format allows readers to approach complex ideas step by step, connecting terms into a coherent understanding of digital worlds. By building fluency in this vocabulary, readers not only strengthen their grasp of cyberpunk but also gain tools to reflect on real-world technologies shaping society today. With its focus on immersion, identity, and connection, this volume equips learners to engage with one of the most iconic dimensions of the genre. Virtual Reality and Cyberspace - Settings, Digital Frontiers - Virtual Reality and Cyberspace define the boundless digital dimensions where consciousness detaches from the body.

These digital realms reflect both humanity's creativity and its hunger to escape the physical limits of existence.
