Go on a cultural tour of Second Life

It seems everyone’s getting into Second Life but if you’re still not sure what it might house that interests you, then this weekend’s event at the Whitworth Gallery could prove useful.
The artist, musician and media critic Mathias Fuchs is offering a cultural tour of the virtual world tomorrow afternoon – but in the real world setting of the gallery.
Organisers say: “The tour will introduce some of the cultural highlights of Second Life and looks at the possibilities (and limitations) of culture and creativity in this online environment. This tour takes place in ‘real life’ in the Sculpture Court of The Whitworth Art Gallery. No specialist computer or Second Life skills are needed.”
This event coincides with the major retrospective exhibition Autonomous Agents: The Art and Films of Lynn Hershman Leeson who is currently working on a SL art work.
The sesion is free and runs from 2.30pm until 3.30pm on Saturday, December 1.
