      <title>Fallon Brainfood: Virtuality</title>

      <description>
        <![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><img src="http://cdn.slideshare.net/fallon-brainfood-virtuality-3929-thumbnail-2?1194650903" alt ="" style="border:1px solid #C3E6D8;float:right;" /> <p>from: <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/akispicer">akispicer</a> 8 months ago</p><p>Fallon strategic planners Aki Spicer (Aki Octagon) and Avin Narasimhan (Desi Stoneage) have come back from the future to offer their POV about Virtuality and it’s implications for brands.

One of the hottest debates in marketing circles today is the viability of virtual worlds like Second Life. What are they? What do people do there Why? What’s in it for me—if anything? We’ve seen companies flooding these worlds, and some are finding it difficult to translate their virtual world presence into real world gains. 

The truth is, we traverse virtual dimensions every day without even thinking about it. From financial transactions, to games, to our daily Facebook interactions with friends, Virtuality is a new normal and it impacts many facets of our lives. It is through this lens that we explore what Virtuality means now and in the future, and what our agency needs to know to extract the most from it.
