| Will Wright and Brian Eno - Spore Metaverse |

o
"The Sims" designer Will Wright demonstrates the
user-created "metaverse" from his latest game,
"Spore," with additional commentary by musician
Brian Eno.
-----
Will Wright and Brian Eno on "Playing with Time."
In a dazzling duet Will Wright and Brian Eno give
an intense clinic on the joys and techniques of
"generative" creation.
Back in the 1970s both speakers got hooked by
cellular automata such as Conway's "Game of Life,"
where just a few simple rules could unleash
profoundly unpredictable and infinitely varied
dynamic patterns. Cellular automata were the
secret ingredient of Wright's genre-busting
computer game "SimCity" in 1989. Eno was
additionally inspired by Steve Reich's "It's Gonna
Rain," in which two identical 1.8 second tape
loops beat against each other out of phase for a
riveting 20 minutes. That idea led to Eno's "Music
for Airports" (1978), and the genre he named
"ambient music" was born.
The Long Now Foundation was established in 01996*
to develop the Clock and Library projects, as well
as to become the seed of a very long term cultural
institution. The Long Now Foundation hopes to
provide counterpoint to today's "faster/cheaper"
mind set and promote "slower/better" thinking. We
hope to creatively foster responsibility in the
framework of the next 10,000 years - The Long Now
Foundaton

Derek Lerner 2007 Digital video 04:39:00 minutes
640 x 360 pixels
Soundtrack: La Muchacha de Los Suenos Dorados
composed by Harold Budd, Daniel Lentz, and Ruben
Garcia
For the last year I have been heavily involved in
virtual worlds, primarily Second Life. This has
prompted many thoughts about the concept of
virtual space in general as well as blurring lines
between simulation and real.
Mixing of realities, infinite space, multi-user
online 3D collaborative environments, and time
travel.
When asked to contribute work to the NOKIA Trends
Lab project I immediately started to think about
the level of connectivity and immersive experience
handheld wireless hybridized multifunction devices
offer, resulting in a type of virtual space. The
sense I get when walking down the street taking
photos, listening to the radio, & then uploading
images to a server is of a disjointed reality
where one's mind is in another place but body is
walking down the street.
Inspired by this, I used a NOKIA N93 to film video
feedback loops creating abstract video drawings as
a metaphor for 3D immersive virtual space.
Infinite syndicated regurgitated communicative
white noise evoking feelings of becoming so
intertwined with digital communications that the
grayness of life as we currently know it is a
blurry place of virtual and real.

ABSTRACT
Linden Lab is the producer of Second Life, an
online world with a growing population of
subscribers (or "residents"); currently, the
community has well over 140,000 residents from 91
countries. By providing residents with robust
building and scripting tools, Linden Lab enables
them to create a vast array of in-world objects,
installations and programs. Since its early
stages, Linden Lab has allowed its residents to
retain full IP rights over their own creations,
thereby insuring that their contributions to the
community remain truly their own.
