Abstract

Our sense of presence in the real world helps regulate our behaviour within it by telling us about the status and effectiveness of our actions. As such, this ability offers us practical advantages in dealing effectively with the world. It is also an automatic or intuitive response to where and how we find ourselves in that it does not require conscious thought or deliberation. In contrast, the experience of presence or immersion in a movie, game or virtual environment is not automatic but is the product of our deliberate engagement with it, an engagement which first requires a disengagement or decoupling with the real world. Of course, we regularly decouple from the real world and embrace other, possible worlds every time we daydream, or engage in creative problem solving or, most importantly, for the purposes of this discussion, when we make-believe. We propose that make-believe is a plausible psychological mechanism which underpins the experience of mediated presence.

Putnam’s Twin Earth thought experiment asks us to believe (pretend) that elsewhere in the universe there is a planet exactly like Earth in virtually all respects, refer to as “Twin Earth”. Having said “virtually all respects”, Putnam goes on to propose some differences between the two for the purpose of philosophical discourse and exploring the nature of semantics.
