In another first for Australia’s ABC broadcaster, a forum was held last night featuring SecondLife Artist-in-Residence Brad Kligerman<\/strong><\/a> – a Paris-based architect and new media artist. <\/p>\n

\"Brad<\/p>\n

As part of the AVAIR (Ars Virtua Artist in Residence) program<\/strong><\/a>, which provides sponsorship for new media artists in virtual 3D world SecondLife, this forum provided an opportunity fo rthe artist to share his experience working as an artist-in-residence. The forum was attended by 27 ‘avatars’ (virtual presences) – numbers deliberately limited to reduce lag and traffic pressure on the server providing the ‘space’, and was simaltaneously webcast to http:\/\/slcn.tv\/ where I watched the presentation.<\/p>\n

Kligerman has set out to use his architectural sensibility in building both a display space and a series of visual works. He has explored the play of light on virtual objects, and has built an installation called “Hyper-spaces”<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Brad<\/p>\n

One of the more interesting questions from the floor concerned how he articulated the distinction between the ‘gaze’ of the viewer\/avatar and the ‘gaze’ of the camera view – which can be quite separate from that of the avatar.<\/p>\n

Both the presentation and the Q&A session were stimulating, and the ABC site will have the vodcast<\/strong><\/a> available shortly.<\/p>\n
