Meta's Tiger & Buffalo Ad Esoteric Analysis

According to Webster’s newly dedicated section for Zuck’s virtual world, this is how Webster defines this word [metaverse]:


“In its current meaning, metaverse generally refers to the concept of a highly immersive virtual world where people gather to socialize, play, and work. “

Meta- here efficiently conveys the idea of transcending reality (as in metaphysics) and the more current use of meta as an adjective meaning “self-referential” or knowingly distinct from the conventional and concrete world.

 

Zuck says that “meta comes from the Greek word for beyond,” and that’s basically correct. Etymologically, meta meant “after” in Greek, so metaverse also neatly implies a world or conception that requires the “real” world in order to move beyond it and acknowledge another realm.

 

Interesting.


In the Tiger & Buffalo ad, a strange visual tale unfolds. Saturated with esoteric symbols, this merits analysis and what I've discovered might shed tremendous light on where the Meta-verse plans to take those who enter.
