VP Learning Laboratories – Creating in Virtual Worlds

How to make video, perform live…and beyond in the longest running virtual world.

Having spent time in and out of virtual worlds for over 20 years, this past year of relative isolation led me back in. Through this period I have realized the incredible potential for art making within user generated avatar based virtual worlds. I have been performing live sound with an exact replica of my loom built by a friend who I met in world. I’ve also been DJing, building immersive installations and filming short films as part of a genre of filmmaking called Machinima.
