The "nonvirtual" events mentioned in the passage are: music shows and art openings. They, by the author, are considered "nonvirtual" because the presentation in done through the Internet, where people log in with their ID and enjoy art within his/her monitor. In the "nonvirtual" event, physically dressing up and going to the presentation would not be necessary, since, conveniently, everything can be done with a click of a mouse.
Many times people experience famous events through a nonvirtual projector. A nonvirtual event is a real event that occurs someplace else although you can participate in them through media; it is an event that you can experience withou having to attend. In paragraph five, Wurster's examples of nonvirtual events are things such as music shows, art openings and listening parties. What makes these events nonvirtual is the fact that a person can attend to them without actually being there physically. This is done through the internet and could actually also be done through watching television.
Nonvirtual events, which Wurster describes as "music shows and art openings" (paragraph 5), are events in which people are physically attending. They are able to socialize, mingle, and unite with other diverse people. Virtual events, on the other hand, are events in which people are only mentally and emotionally present, still interacting with others, but not in a physical, face-to-face, manner.
