Technology evolves pretty quickly these days so I
decided to keep a running compilation of what's
going down on VRML history. I'm slowly building
what one day will be an open, shared database
on the Web about VRML history.
I call it the VRML Sophistron (From the Greek "sophia"
meaning wisdom and the Geek "tron" meaning a device for
the manipulation of subatomic particles).
This could become a fixed paper artifact in the future,
but the way I see it, that sort of misses the point.
The future of history is cyberspatial.
Anyway, the recent multilogue on coordinates makes at least
one chapter subheading obvious: "Which Way Was Up?"
