What is a fact, what facts are architectural, and what are factual social networks that would build up into architectural facts. Back to our virtual socially interactive networks discussed ditto-the Internet Relay Chat (IRC)- the first question that comes into mind is, is IRC a fact? Who are those users, clients, visitors, guests, we talk to. Are they real people, are they bots, virtual robots, guests that are generated algorithmically to react to certain keywords, or even to try to initiate any topic?
Or is IRC the 21st century ECHELON? Was it found to try to detect people online, to intercept their words on main channels, to breech their networks, to initiate virtual, yet faked social networks, that might end, maybe for some as being herself a victim of one foul romantic scammer whose girlfriend might have lately ditched him, and found revenge on irc? (Or he might turn up into a serial killer...). And what about him, that person who goes there out of boredom, to meet a whole new parallel reality, a reality which for once seems to be realer than the real, but it turns out to be just the perfect place for a romantic scam (I mentioned romantic scams as examples cause few of my friends were victims of such cases).And what has architecture to do with IRC. What if IRC is a fact indeed, what if it leaves no doubt for possibilities, after all this is what a fact all about, to eliminate possibilities. Hence the hypothesis would go as such; if IRC is real, then 3D built virtual environments are real, therefore social interaction that was once found to flourish among the 1 Dimensional channels of its servers would add to the corroboration of such social interactions among the 3Dimensional and hence the (n-1) dimensions generated within the 3D architectural virtual space of the computer.
It goes without saying that unless IRC is not a fact, unless IRC leaves doubts for possibilities, then, architecture as we know is not real, and the only real architecture, that would relatively and asymptotically tend into becoming the for sought BWO, is the only “REAL” world we need to seek for, to beseech, to acquire, to develop and to cultivate in the sub-conscious minds of nomads.
