Augmentology project Social Tesseracting Part 3

A working manual discussing the formation and evolution of synthetic environments.

Social tesseracting is a three part series of link-rich blog entries that functionally describe how synthetics – people who explore within and create augmented/cross-reality platforms – operate in emergent social areas. These entries expand upon earlier concepts as outlined in _Augmentology 1[L]0[L]1_, which explores concepts that shape and are shaped by networked encounters:

“These concepts are formed through principles generated internally within specific online environments. The aim of this Augmentology project is to construct a new discipline. This discipline is to be formulated and documented appropriately online. This discipline is not intended for traditional academic ratification. Augmentology does not adhere to canonised standards of referencing and/or validation. All materials linked are accessible online. References are presented in order to encourage link-based – rather than directional – information accumulation. These references include a mixture of verifiable and speculative sources.

Each entry is constructed to reflect how participants absorb information within attention economies and synthetic environments. The entries are designed to function within a system dependent on embedded information streams. Concepts are condensed to reflect this.”
