The End of Reality - The Atlantic

'Fake-but-realistic video clips are not the end point of the flight from reality that technologists would have us take. '

'Virtual reality will test us. '

'The apotheosis of this vision is virtual reality. '

'Vladimir Nabokov once wrote that reality is one of the few words that means nothing without quotation marks. '

'In other words, manipulated video will ultimately destroy faith in our strongest remaining tether to the idea of common reality. '
