Please print out these articles and bring them with you to class on Monday for discussion.\u00a0 Alternatively, you can bring digital versions of the reading with you.<\/p>\n

Post 1 (Pick 3, write one paragraph for each):<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Do you agree with Slater\u2019s breakdown between PI and Psi? \u00a0Do you agree with Slater that these concepts are orthogonal? Explain why.<\/li>\n
  2. Slater writes \u201cThe\u00a0illusion [PI], given the right physical set-up and the appropriate SCs in a particular modality, is automatic\u2014it\u00a0can coexist with different (but not contradictory)\u00a0sensations in another modality.\u201d \u00a0Do you agree? Explain why.<\/li>\n
  3. Do you agree that breaks in Psi are harder to overcome than breaks in PI? Explain.<\/li>\n
  4. The paper references the Milgram Experiment (http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Milgram_experiment). \u00a0How do you feel about this experiment being run in Virtual Reality?<\/li>\n
  5. Select a topic that you find interesting, dubious, confusing or curious and explain why.\u00a0 Write at least a paragraph of explanation and add citations if warranted.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    1. The article brings up many concerns about VR. \u00a0Pick one to either argue for or against<\/li>\n
    2. Pick one of the quotes listed in the article that you find apt, interesting, misleading, problematic, etc. \u00a0Make an argument for our against the citation.<\/li>\n
