"What is real ? How do you define real ? If you're talking about what real you can feel, what you can smell, what you can taste and see, then real is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain." Morpheus to Neo in "The Matrix"
Parallel universes have existed within the webbed world of culturally constructed reality within which we live for a considerable time now. These universes have taken the form of anything from graphic, gory first person shooter games to timeless works of fiction such as The Hobbit, Peter Pan, The wizard of Oz and many more familiar publications.
In a world of mass consumption, identity crises and social inequality, interpreting everyday life through the "unreal" has become commonplace for many an individual. As such, the thin veil between the "real" and the "fictive" is thinner and more translucent than ever before.
