- Pygmalion's Spectales (short story) by Stanley G. Weinbaum
'You drink,' said the elfin, bearded face, 'to make real a dream. Is it not so? Either to dream that what you seek is yours, or else to dream that what you hate is conquered. You drink to escape reality, and the irony is that even reality is a dream.'
Published June 1935 ~ Wonder Stories

this sounds very close to virtual reality to me
Written in 1935 it eerily foretells the psychedelic 60's and the 21st century culture of video game immersion.
@@inceptional are we unwittingly constructing the Matrix?
Virtual Reality in 1935 !!
Cool story. I liked the semi-happy ending.
2019. Your comments make it sound interesting. No way this was written in 1935! 🤯
Purple Haze all in my brain.
Suddenly things they don't seem the same.
An amazing prediction or someone who had read a lot of philosophy and reflected a lot.
... probably both 👍🏼😉🖖🏻
amazing prediction of vr and occolus rift type technology.
I think Mr. Weinbaum was a feet fan.
The guy who selling the product also wrote the program, it's just amazing, maybe they copied this writer and wrote the matrix, or could be this man concept of God, as humans we are so below those makers, we have creative brains, but really so small unless teamed up with others, from 1864 to 1945, we brought out of the dark ages, steel, movies, medicine, telephone, radio, mass production, airplanes, atom bomb, and all the intricate circuitry, just to much to mention, one it all stemmed from the idea of one man and the belief of others, team work, Dr Banting ww 1 knew if a man lost his pancreas he would die of wasting disease, he team up with a chemist, Dr Best, these two isolated insulin, the rest is history, from these two modern medicine was born, could be the Wright brothers, an idea, these short stories open the mind, to bad this generation has put there minds inside the program, hope this is readable
