He is a person who ‘gets it’. The people writing about him ‘get it’ such as Eric Rice and the people I meet in Second Life and related places all seem to have the same approach and same ideas. Not identical, but birds of a feather. It is important, as Eric writes, that we still work with the rest of the world. No technology or social change just happens overnight. I think that they guys and I here in Hursley have both a creative and future looking point of view, but mix that with practical uses. So it feels like the Metaverse is the place to express this and make a serious and innovative contribution. […]

Interestingly, to me at least, my brother introduced me to Regina Spektor a while ago but I rediscovered her work recently when one of her songs was used in an advert for Sky (featuring crazy vert ramp skateboarding stunts against a stunning canyon backdrop) at the cinema recently. Great to see her delving int Second Life too.

Incidently, anyone seeking validation of grown-up uses of Second Life and other metaverses might appreciate these two links: Ethan Kaplan’s teaser for the project, and the press release announcing it.
