"Realism" is the Objective, Not Necessarily "Metaverse"

Google’s multisearch function, which will support searching with images and text at the same time. Google likens the experience to pointing at something and asking a friend about it.

That is part of a broader trend: a continuing development of “realism” in media and content. Realism is said to be enhanced by immersion: into a game; a shopping experience; a meeting. So in a broad sense, the many changes that are said to be part of “metaverse” experiences are simply the latest evolution of realism in content and media. 


Structured search keeps getting better, and multisearch is just one example of how realism is manifest at a concrete level. 


Movement in the direction of greater realism is broadly what the metaverse might be said to represent, though some would likely focus more n “immersion” than “realism.” Realism and immersion are hard to separate. 


The objective of high-performance videoconferencing always has been the feeling that “you are there.”
