The Internet... a shapeless mass of interlinking websites and data streams, in my own words.
These are some quotes I found that describe the internet in these people’s views.
Advances in computer technology and the Internet have
changed the way America works, learns, and communicates. The Internet has become
an integral part of America's economic, political, and social life. ~Bill
Clinton
Internet: absolute communication, absolute isolation. ~Paul
Carvel
The Internet is the world's largest library. It's just that all
the books are on the floor. ~John Allen Paulos
The Internet is just a
world passing around notes in a classroom. ~Jon Stewart
I believe the first quote is relevant because it describes the internet as a place people escape to and a place people spend most of their time. A place people spend money and a place they develop relationships among other aspects of life.
The second two quotes I believe relevant because they describe the internet in a repressive state i.e. books or paper... this made me feel like the Omnitrix could be the next stage of the internet.
So as the internet is to books
The Omnitrix is to the internet.
It took me a while to come up with a name, I researched more than a few before I settled with Omnitrix, and here are a few.
UnaMatrix
iMatrix
eMatrix
Omniweb
Omninet
oMatrix
Intertron
Interweb
VE3D - Virtual Environment 3D
Intertrix
Lifeweb
When I was researching these names I wanted something that meant all,everything,perfection,one,unity,collective,network,interlink,
So that’s what made me think of these terms.
Now, the Omnitrix is a 3d virtual environment, a city. This city will have one of every store in the world or at least a 3d representation of it. People can enter these stores and look at detailed 3dimentional products and purchase them as if you were on the internet. Not only will this give you a chance to see the item as if you had it in front of you but some retailers may give you the chance to try them before you buy them, which is a problem most people face when purchasing on the internet. The Omnitrix won’t only be for stores. All websites on the internet (excluding those that be illegal or unethical) will also have a structure as well as actual people. Accounts will be made for every individual who has access to the Omnitrix. These people, which I hope will include the whole world one day, will have their own space, a structure in the centre of the city which will virtually hold every accountholders free space, simply enter the building input your desired room and the door at the end of a hall will lead you to whatever you inputted. More about this method will be explained in my theory work.
These buildings will have a “smart input” where the user simply describes details of rooms or objects and they are created ready for editing and viewing though the user (apart from world moderators) will have sole manipulation over these objects and different levels of manipulation can be assigned through a hierarchy effect. Though the 3d aspect is a relatively small one considering all the different parts of this world changing technology, there will be security to manage, physics and other scientific aspects to be taken into account. As far as the Omnitrix environment is concerned it will be developed as a high-end computer game would be but things such as security, accounts and personal information, corporation information and databases, the interface technology. All of these aspects will require multiple companies from all industries to work together to create a safe and secure virtual environment.
More on this may be posted if i get good feed back over the next week or so.
