Conceptual Identity

What is your conceptual identity?

Your conceptual identity is your place in the inter-conceptual world. One’s conceptual identity consists roughly of two parts. The first part is the ‘image’ or ‘idea’ that you have of yourself and the world around you, the second part is formed by the ‘images’ or ‘ideas’ that others have of you. In short, your conceptual identity consists of all the existing thoughts about you.

Just as the computer is affecting the inter-conceptual world, it is also affecting our conceptual identities. Because of the computer, and especially the internet, information is easily distributed and accessible from any given place. That means that our conceptual identity can travel around the globe with the speed of light, and people at the other side of the world can come to know of your existence within minutes. The virtual you travels ahead of yourself.
