The State of the Metaverse
Grand Tour of the Virtual Landscape
circa 1997 (60)
Where have we been, where are we going?
This panel will chronicle the early investment period in the on-line virtual worlds medium
(1994-1996) and detail the notable successes and failures. The companies, strategies and
the current state and future of online virtual worlds and tools will be the focal point of
this session.

Building the New Cyberspace
2D or not 2D, That is the Question
(90)
This panel will feature another installment of the famous debate over the relative merits
of 2D versus 2D interfaces? Does 3D just bring a lot of performance and navigation
headaches? Is 2D simply not sexy enough? Do you always need to see your avatar or is first
person point of view the natural way we primates interact?
Jim Bumgartner, The Palace - Coordinator
Randy Farmer, Electric Communities
Steve DiPaola, Saatchi and Saatchi
Fujitsu Speaker (TBC)
Designing Worlds that Work (90)
What makes a World Worth (re)Visiting?
This panel of experts will tackle the often missed point of: how
do we make worlds that really draw people back. It turns out that some of the sexiest 3D
worlds have a tiny fraction of the users that simple postage stamp avatar environments. Do
you always need to be multi-user to attract visitors? Do you have to allow users to
leave their mark or otherwise build in the world for them to take ownership? How
do gaming worlds compare with just plain social spaces? What about great episodic
performance worlds, are they attracting viewers? Will sales-bots turn off the users or
does your community need a really great bartender bot?

Virtual worlds in Cyberspace are relatively new -- but the art of community-building is
very old, and the basic social dynamics that bond human beings into groups are timeless.
As designers and builders of online communities, we can learn powerful lessons by studying
the ancient social rituals that have succesfully shaped real-world communities, and
applying these lessons to our own work. Now more than ever, we need to understand the
pivitol role that rituals, archetypes and mythology play in community development, to give
our brave new worlds some history, depth, and soul.

Transcending Gender in Virtual Environments
Wendy Sue Noah, WEAVE and Fujitsu/WorldsAway - Coordinator
Other speakers TBD
The panel will be about the opportunities we have to transcend gender through the medium
of the internet. For the first time in recent history, the internet offers us a neutral
playing ground - everyone is equal, and there are no major barriers as to what your gender
is or what you look like it's about the content - the heart and soul of the matter.
However, in the same breath, gender still plays out a tremendous role in our social
reality, and gender is still an important piece of cyber-interactions - but how
significant? And how can you trust that this avatar is really male, or this email
correspondence is really female?
As chairperson of the Contact Consortium special interest group WEAVE http://www.ccon.org/weave (Women Entering Avatar
Virtual Environments), I see great opportunity for gender unity through the means of the
internet and beyond.

Avatars, the Evolution of a New Species
Fred Davis, noted journalist and cyber-futurist
Avatars represent the most highly evolved virtual life-form. But even so, it's still a
very primitive species. Unlike biological evolution, which creeps imperceptibly along,
technologic evolution occurs in leaps and bounds. In order to make avatars more
meaningful, useful, and valuable, rapid evolution and even mutation needs to be
encouraged. But the evolution of avatars is not merely technological, it's also
sociological and psychological, and our own thinking about avatars needs to evolve
considerably before we can address the magnitude of the problems and even hope to create
meaningful solutions.
As a first step into increasing the evolutionary rate of avatar development, developers
need to broaden their vision to consider a paradigm shift that places social evolution on
equal par with technology development. How well an avatar is rendered is trivial compared
with the
larger question of what the avatar's purpose is and how it can be used as a tool for human
communication. Scripted environments, simulations, and psychodramas can be used to help
evolve the sociological and psychological aspects of avatars and to help us learn how they
can move beyond being merely a puppet show and instead become an important new
communications medium.

From: Charles Ostman
Asthetic Exlploration in Synthetic Environments - "Experiential
Artforms" In whatever way this may be "morphed" into the evolving entity
space of Avatars 97 event is welcomed with anticipation . . .
I am a featured artist at the COMA event in S.F. as part of the San
Francisco Computer Museum project, and related activities. Also, I am developing some
materials for the actual museum technical content, as per computing technologies of the
future, of which the domains of experiential and immersive environments and computing
processes are certainly a likely component thereof (my personal interest here is more in
the nanocomputing development arena, and in experiential computing for advanced
visualization purposes).
As for your earlier interests in possibly having my art (canvases, prints, etc) available
for the Anon events, etc., this fits in just fine, as I will on display at the COMA event,
then potentially at Avatars 97, with a brief sojourn of some of the pieces to Arcosonti,
and then back to S.F.
I have just published an article with CGW (Computer Graphics World) about the
development and applications of 3D graphics acceleration chips and technologies for the
P.C., relevant to the world of interactive 3D immersive environments, VRML, and so on. In
that regards, I have just sent in a series of materials about Avatars, this conference and
related events, and in general another article with thematic trajectory of:
"Experiential Artforms" - as evidenced by the Avatars 97 and Paradox
conferences, the newly released "Avatars" book, etc.
Also, I made note of the IEEE Spectrum cover article on "Sharing Virtual Worlds -
Avatars, Agents, and Social Computing" appearing in the March '97 issue.
Theme of presentation as sent to CGW: "Asthetic Exploration in Synthetic Environments
- Experiential Artforms"
Charles Ostman
Avatar entities, autonomous behavioral species components, and the synthetic
environments they flourish in need not be confined merely to the
"traditional" interpretations of vicarious experiential access to the
virtual terraform. These domains, as per contextual portals to the "virtual
terraform", and the environments they provide access to, can in fact be experiential
and asthetic renderings of "alternative realities" of any scale, thematic
content, or translational
content, to provide the potential visitor to such domains access to worlds, environments,
even ecosystems that could not other wise be visualized or experienced.
Experiential technologies, and the enabling technology processes spawned by the
implementation of the global internet system are rapidly converging into a new
"existance matrix" which the human population will learn to adapt, and evolve
into. At the heart of this realm will also be an entirely different definition of what
constitutes "entertainment", and by what mechanisms a sense of recreational and
asthetic fullfillment can be experienced.
The potential exists for an infinite variety of choices of experiential asthetic content,
both as a singular experience for the individual, and a collective experience for
"virtual communities". The quest for experiential asthetic "discovery"
and conveyance, in whatever new forms become available, will continue to be an assential
component of the next increment of societal evolution.
Articles focussing on the 3D graphics acceleration chips and related products are also
appearing in Midnight Engineering, and MicroComputer Journal, with an application
"interest" focussing on Avatars and "virtual environments".
Theoretically, they should be in print in time for the conference.
From Mitra
There are two potential presentations - one would be People Space - the multi-user
system we build in Japan. The other would be a Living Worlds - where are we now -
presentation.
The PS presentation can be around 5 to 10 minutes, (I presume that's what all the
systems would want?). LW could usefully be anywhere from 2 mins to 15, but I'd suggest 5
minutes to bring people up to speed with where its at?
People Space Would probably be just me, or me+1, using a pair of laptops (two phone
lines, or two internet or any combination). I could do it with one but there would be a
risk of noone else in the space.
LW would be me+Honda from Sony if he's there. Standard power-point setup (my laptop).
From: Mitra
Bruce
I'd be happy to put a panel (for example on standards) together. Maybe get the
Panasonic people to show their H-anim based Virtual Kareoki etc. Also, I'm sure that I, or
someone else, can show People Space.
From: Dara Schlissel
dara@oz.com
Per your request that I propose an area for OZ's presentation, I would like to suggest
that OZ participate in the "The Big Apps" topic, either by speaking/presenting
or sitting with others on a panel or round table discussion.
OZ has recently announced a partnership and product launch with Ericsson (see attached)
and is in an ideal position to discuss issues such as "The Virtual Workspace:
conferencing, work process visualization, data navigation, training." Skuli Mogensen
and Garry Hare are the 2 people who are available to speak for this conference. Skuli, as
you may know, is the President and one of the co-founders of OZ; Garry Hare, our COO, came
to OZ in April of this year. Prior to joining OZ, he founded digital publishing companies
in the United States and Europe including Fathom Pictures, Inc. and Philips Interactive
Media ? Europe on behalf of Philips N. V.

Greetings: I just heard about avatars97 from David Richards. I have been designing what
are now called "avatars" since 1990, and am very interested in your 1997
conference.
Please send me any information, as I would be interested in speaking and or showing my
avatars.
From: Hannes Vilhjalmsson To: contact consortium,
powers@insideout.net Subject: Avatars '97 Participation
This is in response to your call for participation in the Avatars ´97 conference in
San Francisco.
Last June I submitted a Master's thesis to the program in Media Arts and Sciences at
MIT titled "Autonomous Communicative Behaviors in Avatars". This thesis
addresses a fundamental issue regarding the design and implementation of avatars, namely
how avatars can best reflect the communicative intentions of their respective users.
I beleive I have an important message for the community and would appreciate the
opportunity to give a talk or in some way present my work at your conference (a talk would
be preferred). I had originally planned to give this presentation at the Lifelike Computer
Characters ´97 as a follow up to my presentation there last year, but the organizers just
announecd that LCC was going bi-annual and that there would be no LCC '97!
To review my work, please visit my project web-site at:
http://avatars.www.media.mit.edu/avatars
From: Jim A Larson To: via our Webmaster Subject: Ideas about Earth to Avatars
Bruce,
Some ideas for the earth to avatars conference....
A virtual world contest: Get some "experts" to judge a collection of new
virtual worlds and aware prizes for various categories: most fanticiful, popular,
artistic, functional, etc.
A session devoted to legal issues (such as the one I'm facing now). Topics include how
to protect against real world law suites over stuff in a virtual world. E.g., copywrite
violations, harrasment, local porn laws, etc. Is a virtual world provider like a book
publisher or a book distributer, or is a virtual world like a public park where the
provider has minimal responsibility?
Migrating avatars: what can we do to enable avatars to cross worlds? What is the
current status of the Universal Avatar working group? What minimal set of standards is
sufficient for avatar migration among worlds?
Build it yourself avatars. How can average users construct and personalize their
avatars. What tools are available? Show examples of cool avatars. Maybe a "cool"
avatar contest.
Applications of virtual worlds: using virtual worlds for education, electronic
commerce, just-in-time help, games, talk radio, auditorium/performance, etc.
I'm always interested in promoting IDMOO 2. Could I have a couple of hours for
"how to construct your own virtual worlds using the Intel multi-user application
development kit."
Birds of a feather session with topics suggested at the beginning of the conference
Other sessions might include awareness in virtual worlds, VRML 2 and beyond, audio in
virtual worlds, scripting for virtual world users,
I think you should present a "intro to virtual worlds" for people new to the
area (the "intro to chi" tutorial was vary popular) prior to the beginning of
the conference.
From: Keith Wescourt Subject: Re: Directions to Saturday CCon Meeting and RSVP
Bruce,
We are planning to participate in some way in Avatars '97: our CEO Barbara Hayes-Roth
could speak on "Cybermask", as she did at the recent CGDC (Sue Wilcox told me
she recommended this talk to you); in addition, we might exhibit this year.
From: Mike Sellers
Hey Bruce,
Doing something at Avatars sounds great. I'll be meeting with Amy Jo later this week;
would you like me to mention it to her? I just read about your "Virtual Communities
and Virtual Worlds" panel coming up on Oct 22 as part of the NTT New Media Minds
Forum. Is that part of Avatars too?
Congrats on going to print with the book. I'd love to contribute something (quickly, I
know). Did you have something particular in mind in terms of subject matter and/or length?
Give me a call if you'd like to talk about this (I'm at (510) 461-1507), or I'll call you
later today.

From: "Nathan Wagoner"
Bruce -
Judging from the Ccon WWW site, there's a lot of stuff I could either talk about, or
organize a panel on, or participate in a panel on.... Are you looking to fill any
particular niches at this point?
V-Worlds Biz: where are the $$ to build the new Cyberspace? Worlds that work: what
makes a world worth revisiting? Designing the inhabited interface
Any of the above...
The Virtual Workspace: conferencing, work process visualization, data navigation,
training.
The main project I am working on at the moment is a Palace designed to support field
sales staff and training for FORE Systems...
The Art of Virtual Community: lessons from the WELL and other communities Virtual
communities and the worlds they live in
and either/both of those as well - where do you need things?
Also - I really *would* be interested in showing the paintings I made for Palace
environments, they are quite different than any other virtual worlds I know of - Randy
Farmer liked them a lot too! :)
Let me know where I can help, and esspecially if there is any long distance help I can
offer between now and then. And if, during the time I am out there, we could manage dinner
or just some time to catch up, that would be great - I'll have Monday evening in SF as
well.
From: oosterhuisassociates
Dear Bruce,
I visited the Avatars 97 website. I think our work could contribute to the notion of
introducing virtual reality extensions to buildings. I found a preliminary progtram at the
site, but not yet any information on keynote speakers. Do have a short-list already? I
want you also to know that my work relates closely to that of my friend and collegue
Marcos Novak of the UCLA. You can find him on several websites. He research is exclusively
on virtual immersions (as far to the 4th dimension, ask him what he means by that), and my
work tries to relate the immersion in physical environments with the immersion in virtual
environments. In the waterpavilion we developed immersive sound-scapes, immersive
lightscapes (lightmassage) both feeding upon data from a maritime board unit merged into a
building sculpture.
Could you send me some more details on the list of speakers. First then I can judge if
my work would fit into the Avatars 97 Conference!
Regards,
Kas Oosterhuis

the Palace and Java technologies to offer party games, group discussions and comedy
performances to a broad audience. Our comedy show received high marks from Entertainment
Weekly, who called it a first in avatar-based virtual entertainment.
