| The SL Residency Grant |

Filed under: Arts and Culture  The Australia Council Second Life Artists Residency recently awarded their AUD $20,000 grant to Christopher Dodds (aka Mashup Islander), Adam Nash (aka Adam Ramona) and Justin Clemens (aka S1 Gausman) of Babelswarm. First of all, I didn't know there was such a Residency program, and second of all, that's a pretty fair amount of money! This speaks well of Australia's devotion to promoting the arts in general, and SL in specific.The post referenced above also includes an example of their upcoming SL- related project, which sounds really cool: RL people speak into a microphone and their speech gets converted into letterforms that drop into a transparent well in-world. This is meant to be a metaphor for the Tower of Babel story, and it's particularly apt for SL. Keep an eye out for The Australian Centre of Virtual Art (ACVA), in which this installation will manifest. (Thanks, Elizabeth) Read Posted originally: »
