The Dissemination of Metaverse from an Embodied Perspective and Its Shift Towards Human Physicality

Abstract

The Metaverse is a digital society that seamlessly merges reality and virtual, where users take the form of digital avatars. As the Metaverse evolves, user consciousness may detach from physical bodies and exist autonomously in the virtual world. The Metaverse’s dual nature, both virtual and real, strengthens individual consciousness, but it can also lead to a dissolution of practicality and cognitive subjectivity. This prompts a reconsideration of the evolution of human nature, as the maturity and evolution of the Metaverse not only changes the fundamental structure of human existence but also alters corresponding methods of communication.
