A
new
aesthe8c
phenomenology
is
emerging
via
advances
in
digital
technology
which
might
lead
us
to
muse
how
far
the
paradoxically
named
‘virtual’
brings
us
closer
to
lived
experience.
(Sian
Ede,

and
Science,
2005)

4. Rela8onship
between
Virtual
space
and
Outer
space
• New
spaces
of
technology
in
virtual
reality
explored
in
the
work
of
ar8sts
such
as
Char
Davies,
Osmose
(1995);
• Explora8on

Now,
for
the
first
8me,
this
secret
story-­‐line
(of
inner
narra8ve)
is
being
opened
up
to
the
outside
world
…
A
par8cular
iden8ty
is
therefore
no
longer
an
internal,
subjec8ve
experience,
but
is
constructed
externally
and
therefore
is
much
less
robust
and
more
vola8le.
