Augmented Reality

In investigating the different categories of virtual (experiential, digital and societal), I came to the conclusion that I would like to incorporate all of them into my design. In a large part, I would like to create a digital realm which affects the experiential realm of the user. I think that the societal realm is generally covered by the entire concept of an agent of parliament, as parliament is one of the most societally-encompassing areas I can think of.

It affects everybody.
It unites everybody.
...sometimes uniting for bad reasons but all the same...


Notes on augmented reality:
- Augmented reality adds graphics, sounds, haptic feedback and smell to the natural world as it exists.
- Augmented reality is changing the way we view the world -- or at least the way its users see the world.
- With augmented-reality displays, which will eventually look much like a normal pair of glasses, informative graphics will appear in your field of view, and audio will coincide with whatever you see. These enhancements will be refreshed continually to reflect the movements of your head.
