As part of my doctoral research on the metaverse, I am creating some sci-fi vignettes which can be used as “imaginaries” of the future of the Metaverse. Each Metaverse Imaginary vignette will have a specific theme and incorporate multiple threads (see below) I will also add some commentary about the state of the imaginary vis a vis startups and larger companies that are toiling to turn these imaginaries into reality. This is a near future imaginary and is more about the Future of Work, but not as extreme as some futures where new jobs and careers will be created.
