Alright, it’s not that literal. But the Arts and Technology World’s Lab students have a virtual space in Second Life and will be blowing up the studios they made. Why? The invite said because they built it, it didn’t work, so now they are blowing them up!

What worked so far is their gallery where they have used it for shows featuring metaverse artwork from students. Some includes videos. They have also been able to setup a live stream that comes from a webcam.

The space is growing and the ATEC World’s Lab group works hard to continue to be inventive and continue to improve it.

Also, if you come up with an interesting sponsored research project, I’m sure they can take it on!
