Abstract

The article reviews a phenomenon of virtual reality as an ontological dimension of a human in informational society and social consequences of immersion of a modern human in a hyperreality. The virtualized reality, the hyperreality, forged by the virtual socialization, is by nature unstable and stochastic, which, in turn, encourages modern philosophers and social scientists to develop so-called "nomadic" ontologies in order to uncover its essential traits.
