Kamimo Islands Project

Kamimo Islands Project

We have just been watching a series of presentations on the Kamimo Islands project in Second Life, chaired by Luisa Panichi (University of Pisa, Italy). The presentations were given by Bryan Carter (Central Missouri University, USA), Judith Molka-Danielsen (Molde University College, Norway), Mats Deutschmann (Mid-Sweden University) and – “virtually” in Second Life – David Richardson, University of Kalmar, Sweden). It was a varied and technologically fascinating session. You can find out more about the Kamimo Islands Project if you search for Kamimo in Second Life or for Bryan Carter’s Virtual Harlem in Second Life – a reconstruction of 1920s Harlem at the peak of the jazz age.
