Virtually Bergson

Here is a musing on the nature of abstraction or virtual reality. I think the question is: as nature is abstracted more and more, and children are raised without directly contacting the non-man-made world, will they mistake abstraction for truth? Or will intuition thirst for the unknown experience of realization? Is intuition truly a human connection to the absolute continuum of reality? Will branches always break through concrete?

Inotherwords:

Although it doesn't seem theoretically possible to recreate nature in fully realized virtual form with any fewer elements than what make up its actual form, is it possible that human senses are limited and will at some point not recognize the shortcomings of virtual form?

I guess my fundamental belief says no. Does that make me a Bergsonian?

The demonstrations of the relativity of our knowledge are contaminated by an original fault: like the dogmatism they attack, they suppose that all knowledge must necessarily start from concepts with a rigid contour in order to reach flowing reality with them. But to tell the truth, our intelligence can follow the opposite process. It can lower itself into moving reality, assume its ever-changing direction, and, in short, grasp it by means of that intellectual sympathy called intuition.
=Henri Bergson from Introduction a la Metaphysique
