Week 1

I attended the first lecture and it was just an introduction to the module of Virtual Space. The key concepts covered in this lecture were "Simulation", "Virtuality" and "Artifice". Simulation means to 'imitate the appearance or character of something'. Virtuality means to 'not physically existing as such but made by software to appear to do so' Artifice means the 'clever or cunning devices or expedients as used to trick or deceive others'. These are excellent starting points for me to find an interesting concept proposal. These words are generally quite similar but intricately very different. I have brainstormed initial ideas that relate to these words.
