The Genesis of the Virtual Realm

The Genesis in the Virtual Realm front room exhibit is the centerpiece of the exhibition's narrative structure. The project illustrates the cultural and philosophical underpinnings of virtual reality from ancient times to the present day to introduce, popularize and educate. From the ancient Zhuangzhou Dreaming Butterfly allusion to “virtual” and ‘real’ to Qian Xuesen's Chinese terminology definition of the term “Lingjing”, the exhibition integrates all concepts into a narrative of virtual reality space as a journey through time and space. The exhibition integrates all the concepts into a virtual reality space narrative like a journey through time and space, guiding the audience to understand the historical background behind virtual reality and paving the way for the prologue to the main exhibition area.
