Virtual Reality and a Second Life: Theory, Examples, Practice

On March 8th, Chris Garvin’s class – Survey of Multimedia – will be discussing virtual reality, including versions of it like that of Second Life. Chris thought it might interest the 2nd Life Fellows so he’s inviting the fellows and anyone else who wishes to attend. The class starts at 4pm and is currently held in Room 1102 (Terra). If there’s a lot of interest, we’ll move to a larger room so please let Kim Thomas (ext 2014) know if you’re expecting to attend. The discussion is going to be based upon readings drawn from Multimedia: From Wagner to Virtual Reality (the expanded edition), pp 257-266, 272-299 and 352-269. We have copies of the readings in the Dean’s Office (Terra 1101), and the book is also on reserve in the library.

If we change the room number, we’ll let you know.
