Abstract

Lag in network technology prevents absolute synchronization of distributed Virtual Environments (VEs); our experience of them is in this sense inherently subjective. We describe how subjectivity of this kind provides a means of enabling coherent shared experience in a VE, and present an architecture based on this.
