Approaching virtual reality as a semiotic phenomenon, independent scholar Ryan considers "textuality, mimesis, narrativity, literary theory, and the cognitive processing of texts in the light of the new modes of artistic world construction that have been made possible by recent developments in electronic technology" (from the introduction). She discusses the virtual as a philosophical concept, explores the concepts of immersion and interactivity, and considers their synthesis in virtual reality as art. Annotation c.
