Changing power mechanisms and architecture: Metaverse and nanopass example

The change and revolution that will be experienced in practically all professions, particularly with Industry 4.0, will lead to the birth of new professions as well as differentiation on existing professions. Because architecture is one of the most fundamental professions that emerges naturally in response to human needs, it will have a significant impact on all fields, including architecture. As a result of this interaction, the profession's importance and demand will grow in all sectors that the metaverse and web3 will develop, particularly virtual world design. As a result, the goal of this research is to see how architecture, which is one of the professions that has changed as a result of the information age, can adapt to this system in the face of metaverse technology, which is widely regarded as one of the most radical advances. An interpretative qualitative analysis was conducted during this process, and a model was attempted to be put forward using the inductive technique between the power relations of architecture and cultures throughout history. The example of Nanopass has brought up discussion about how it is compatible with the inferences made from the created model and the aspects of the emergence of the metaverse society. As a result, the never-before-seen demand on architecture will vanish, especially since the metaverse platform's decentralized nature would naturally effect the power diffusion stage.
