Virtually There.
Lanier, Jaron
Scientific American, v284 n4 p66-75 Apr 2001
Describes tele-immersion, a new medium for human interaction enabled by digital technologies. It combines the display and interaction techniques of virtual reality with new vision technologies that transcend the traditional limitations of a camera. Tele-immersion stations observe people as moving sculptures without favoring a single point of view. All participants, however distant, can share and explore a life-sized space. (PVD)
