abstract = {The author examines the role of landscape in the so-called
"digital age", verifies the suitability of that which we
collectively term landscape for the computer-generated
worlds of the digital age, and follows the theory behind the
path of landscape into the digital codes of computer
technology. The frame of this dissertation is mainly defined
by two principles of landscape theory, on the one hand the
understanding, that the aesthetic event which we term
landscape exists solely as mental construct in the mind of
the individual perceiver, on the other hand the convention
that landscape images in the mind of the individual are
affected to a considerable extent by secondary influences
such as upbringing, education, experience, mood or even
physical condition. Through digital media we find ourselves
able to generate alternative worlds, which we can convey
using the appropriate interfaces. The most sophisticated
tool currently available for the perception of digitally
generated environments is Virtual Reality (VR) technology,
which allows people to perceive an artificial reality that
the human brain classifies as reality. Landscape too, if
understood as a mental construct specific to the individual,
ultimately represents a virtual product, a virtual reality.
Thus it comes as no surprise that landscape is perfectly
suited to being communicated and experienced in
computer-generated virtual reality.},
