What are experiences? Can we represent them as a set of measurable parameters that can be replayed? If we researched and succeeded in creating a perfect experience recorder and replay what will happen? "If only pictures and words could capture the beauty of the world around us!!" Vijay could have easily dismissed it with that philosophical view. Yet that simple often repeated sentence had got him thinking. Once the train of thoughts had started he could not stop it. He had thought about how in spite of all the technological advancements the very simple act of "recreating a moment" was still not possible by mankind. It was strange that we lived in a world where companies were running behind "creating NEW artificially induced virtual reality experience" but no one could record "a real-life experience" and replay it in a virtual reality environment with exactly the same precision and experience.
