From: "nexus" Subject: EVENT: VR Art show 1996 Date: Thu, 10 Oct 1996 09:23:34 +0100 Hi all I've just come back from Nottingham (UK) after being interviewed by The Times newspaper About the VR show which will be happening in November 10th 96 Here is some info on the show for thaws how would like to come and see it. I'm designing a VR world for the massive software sweet on SGIs Nottingham City council decided to hold a one of VR show. Its a live poetry performances with 4 poets on stage. how have poleyhemes tracers on them. Thers tracers move the poets Avatars in side a VR world There is also 10 ardence avatars which are piloted by 10 members of the aedencs around the Virtual world. The performeries avatars are Devils they have a head a hand and a staff each of which has a dedicated tracers. All avatars can talk to each other throw live audio feeds. ( you can talk to any one but there is proximity detection the closer you get the louder the sound) In the center of the world is a stage on which the poets apare and perform. around this is a dye-a-sys which has 4 boulevards leading to 4 cones. when the Aordence movers along the boulevard towards the cone it changes to a strucher which can be entered. each strucher is dedicated to one of the poets and at the center of each strucher is a wall which displays in text form poetry from that poet. The avatars of the poets are all Devils in form and the Aordence are all angels. We have had the world up and running today and to looks fine. The show will be at the Broadway center in Nottingham England on November the 10th 1996 admission 35.00 there are only 200 tickets I will be putting all the elements from the show built with the SIG vrml softwear on to the LVRG site DISCLAIMER:I am DYSLEXIC sorry for any spelling or grammar mistakes _/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/ SEAN.
