Ballet in Second Life, live perfomance another key use of the metaverse

Over on the IBM islands Jessica Qin pointed out that we now have the Second Life Ballet. Now demographically you would not expect to see epredator at a ballet. However, I am looking forward to seeing a performance.
We have all been talking about how the metaverse is about people, and people connecting. It is therefore no surprise that we need to consider artistic live performance in that too. Doing things live and to an audience is what is missing from many of the other ‘social’ experiences in the Web 2.0 world. Games of course with coop missions and tasks, live competition online, have long had this element of performance.

So pop on over to IBM 10 (just type that into the main map), this is now my favourite way to find things. Slurls are great but sometimes it seems to take a while. Going to the map, and getting a visual prompt on the surroundings seems to add to the experience of where I actually am in the world.

The following is the part notecard information, recreated here for your convienence. Visit the website for links to reviews, pictures and more information.
