Art in SecondLife
- 16.May.2008
- Enlightened visitor number 324
- By Johan Bichel Lindegaard / Sophie Zhu
During the Virtual Moves exhibitions i have counted all unique avatars that have reached the Tagging Art platform. That means all the visitors at the National Museum of Art have been counted as only 2 unique avatars. This is intentional. I wanted to see how many would venture in to Second Life in the shape of their own avatar. […]

- memory SLot - final edition
- By Annette Finnsdottir / Nettska Dreamscape
I agree with Ida Grøn in her post “Keep in Touch” : working with SL has been a long exploration of the possibilities and limitations of SecondLife.
My work “memorySLot” has moved far from the startpoint. I knew from the beginning that this piece would not have a fixed outcome, because the aim was to work […]
Identity and public space

- Making exhibitions politically
- By Pierre Marteau /Pierre Marteau1 Public
How can art do more than just fill the empty space designated to it? This topic is discussed in a text by Dmitry Vilensky in which he ponders how the exhibition can be:
“a prototypical social model, capable of formulating and realizing its goals independently, taking on the function of an alternative power, an open system […]- 27.Jan.2008

- Technical requirement to the (physical) exhibition-space
- By Mogens Jacobsen / Art Magne
As we spoke (shortly) about at the meeting Dec. 10th, there are some requirements to the internet access from within the museum.
For safety reasons a lot of institutions have closed most of the TCP-ports (except port 80 for access the web and port 25 and 110 for emails). By according to the SL FAQ some […]

- RealityHUBs - not technical enough?
- By Nielsen / Duchess Yokosuka
An avatar have been following Virtual Moves from SL, and participated in all four exhibitions, asking our avatars questions about the different artworks and the whole project in general. It’s great that a visitor examines the project with so great interest, and her more critical observations, published on this blog, really hit the bull’s eye: […]
