If you’ve read (I haven’t) Neal Stephenson’s cyberpunk science fiction novel, Snow Crash, you’ll recognize the term. It describes the future shaped by virtual and 3D technologies. The Metaverse Roadmap, in effect a roadmap for the future, is an ambitious proposition nonetheless, I’ve been circling back around to it for definitions and ideas. It’s a big-picture heuristic that’s useful because it’s descriptive and predictive.
It’s a “first-of-its-kind cross-industry public foresight project” that asks challenging questions about “near-term” (2017) and “longer term” (2025) trends.
