Well i thought i would post about our new assignment. This assignment is very random, not only do we have to use a virtual reality program called "Second Life", we also have to create an event inside it.
I have a slight experience inside this program, from using it years ago. My one memory of it was logging in, the program being really slow, and seeing someone flying past me. Oh what fun this is going to be.
This project has started well as well... not only do we have to use a program i dont really like, i also missed the 1st lecture, damn plumber! Me missing the 1st lecture meant that i missed the chance to get in a group. Luckily after a brief scare with another group i got put into a group with Luke Best, who i've done many projects with before.
Ive never worked with the other people in the group but they seem focused on doing something cool inside this "program". Lets hope there focus rubs off onto me!
We've come up with a potentially great idea, the idea is to hold a charitable fundraising event inside Second Life. This event will have two sub events going on, the first will be a art auction, the second being a live streaming music gig. The second event is the one im very eager to do, hopefully this idea can be developed further. My next task is to go away and use second life a bit more, and try to get this idea off the ground... Stay posted!
