Abstract

Human beings' desire for openness and self-fulfillment in various alternative fields has actualized the problem of virtual reality seen as a transcendental environment for us to relocate our cooperative game in. The fact that this environment is cluttered by singular points, which are widely seen as “existential segments” featuring coincidence (unity) of opposites (coincidentia oppositorum), suggests uncertainty to be its principal characteristic that has a significant impact on our existence at both individual and social levels. It is safe to say that virtual reality grew into an environment that offers us a completely new social experience leading to total social and cultural redesign of the world.
