Epoq 2.2 Exploring a Virtual World
A SMALL GALLERY OF SECOND LIFE IMAGES

Can a virtual world be beautiful? Can a computer-simulated environment where life is represented by three-dimensional graphical representations on a monitor screen offer a meaningful design or pattern that gives intense pleasure or deep satisfaction to the mind? Maybe. Most of the more than 12 million residents of Second Life would say yes. In fact, when asked what they like to do best in Second Life, many will say explore. They travel the length and breadth of the land and across the sea in search of new discoveries of beautiful places and things in regions previously unknown to them. They savor the shapes, colors and personality of the virtual world.
