Dear Augustine:  I will be happy to meet you at SPT in May.  But please
note, I retired from teaching at age 78 in 2012 so I cannot supervise your
Ph.D.  I was also curious about your comments regarding virtual reality,
 My whole book, BODIES IN TECHNOLOGY (Minn. 2002) is about virtual reality,
although I think I have a take different from yours.  According to Reseach
Gate this is now my third most cited book, very well know in science
circles.  Almost all grad students at my 2018 MIT talk knew of it.   Don
Ihde
