extended reality

Extended reality or XR, is a term that brings together all technologies like Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR) and Mixed Reality (MR) and all the other immersive technologies that are yet to come.

Those immersive technologies allow users to explore other realities in a whole new world using VR, augmenting their world using AR or transforming their world into a new one using MR.

Extended Reality is blurring the lines between the digital and the physical world.

Night Reading

This is the opposite of DayDreaming.

Katie: Hey, bro, what book are you reading?
Josh: I have no idea. I just put my finger in the book night read it.

Katie: Huh?
Josh: Yeah, you know how when you're in school and you're reading in class and your mind wanders off?
Katie: Ya, like daydreaming?
Josh: Exactly! But the opposite! Night Reading is when you sleep while holding a book, and while you're asleep you'll just absorb the information.

silent reading

the long and annoying 10 minutes at the start of an english lesson where the class is silent reading or acting that they're silent reading whilst the teacher uploads the powerpoint. you can usually hear a lot of shuffling, muffled sniffles and whispers about how someone wet themselves at lunch.

failure to bring in a silent reading book can usually end you up with a 10 page essay.

english teacher - ok everybody, 10 minutes of silent reading everybody and i'll take the register. where's your silent reading book?
student - at home, sorry.
english teacher - that's it, the third time this week! 10 page essay for monday, is that understood?

Close Reading

When you heavily analyze someone’s Instagram post or general personal information to figure out who they are as a person/ what is going on.

Very similar to stalking but with an intellectual and analytical twist.

Like criminal minds- but taking it too far.

Friend 1 - Did you see Sam’s Instagram post?

Friend 2 - Yeah I did. It was so chaotic that I had to do a full close reading last night.

Friend 1- Did you hear that Ariana and Finn got back together again?

Friend 2- Wait what!? We need to close read this situation later so we can fully understand what is going on.
