i came to the conclusion its likely out of game too, but back of my mind i seem to remember seeing quoted somewhere that this game is meant to blur lines between the game and reality.
An example of this already is if you look at the www.envirocitizen.org link. that too seems to be a legit non-game site yet it has unusual content on its site (environmental newsletters for perplex city, linked above my original post).

This is the third time I've said this today, and I'm gonna say it again! Please use the

Search facility before posting, or at the very least read the other threads below yours first. The Metaphor Gazette was addressed in this thread of the same name, which was only 10 below this one.

Thanks alot Smile

you'd have to be a giant to lose a vr-cube, as they are essentially cube-shaped "rooms", where stereoscopic images are projected on various walls. you can then stand inside such a cube and see 3D-objects floating in the air in front of you (or simulate a whole different room, in which limited movement is possible).

it is very fascinating, but i really don't see how that would fit into the game....
