Two years ago I took one of my foundation-level art classes into Second Life for the first time. One student, having never had the opportunity to explore virtual 3D space, was approached by another newcomer who immediately offered her a pink cowboy hat. Startled, the student jumped out of her seat. It was this reaction that inspired me to design a course to show real life artists how to make the transition from material space to SL. Thank you, Sowa. This will be a nice segue to upcoming, scheduled Art2.1 write-ups on the Harbor Gallery show in April 2010. I've been in touch with Georg/Gary. Let's chat soon (Nettrice Beattie in SL)!

The mission of the Virtual Human Interaction Lab (http://vhil.stanford.edu/mission/) is to understand the dynamics and implications of interactions among people in immersive virtual reality simulations.

Memorable pieces, like the Hadron Collider by Second Front, could never have even been performed in RL, and I would certainly not have gone to see it. ...and altho, you are talking about a different aspect of time.....I have time on a Sunday to go to 4 or 5 art openings/first nights .... a wonderful bonus.
