i'm doing my thesis proposal on "experiencing virtual architecture".
in a nutshell its looking at designing a "virtual gateway". this physical structure or building will be a porthole or host where virtual environments an be injected into. The idea around the whole WEB 2.0 movement comes in where anybody can create virtual spaces and inject it into this physical building - a gateway from physical to virtual.
The most important aspect is to find a way for physical architecture to create "true" experiences for virtual realms, which too often becomes dead, cold "electronic" environments...
hope this makes sense...any ideas or comments surrounding this would be much appreciated...
