The official biography of Prism Malone
last updated 27 days ago
Prism was born on the world of Cova Mar in the Fed Year 1934. Her parents were both employed, and were able to provide young Prism with a private education. She studied Online Psychology before changing her field of focus to History and then to Theoretics. She developed a taste for commentary and exposition and began chronicling events when she was seventeen.
Her early writing was marked by a strong distaste for virtual reality worlds, including The City. She argued that virtual stimuli received through virtual senses produced virtual reactions and emotions, and that therefore, they were not real and of no consequence. Experiences in VR, as she saw them, were not real experiences, any more than daydreams and fantasies were real experiences.
As she grew older, she backed down from the extremism that had marked her early work, and began to see VR as a two-layer experience - that is, a real experience consisting of a virtual one. Her first book to receive starwide attention was Infinite Soul, released in 1955. It discussed this two-layer experience and expanded the concept into that of the infinite-experience, wherein, a real person enters a virtual world and then within that virtual world enters another virtual world and then another and so on. She became so interested by the idea, she would follow up Infinite Soul with the similarly-themed, but more philosophical And Onward Forever.
In 1959 she released twentyfive hours of personal chatlogs, calling the collection, Eternal Conversations. She followed it with an essay entitled The Past Always Is, in which she put forth the theory that information can never be lost; rather, it is our ability to interpret or remember it, our technology, which may vanish. It marked the beginning of what some critics have dubbed her Eternity Phase.
Her latest work, Is This Now? has currently been viewed by >36% of the population, making it one of the most-viewed texts of the last several decades.
Prism lives on Port Mar Moon with her two dogs, Shone and Shine. She is twentyeight.
