Two Way Webcast to help blur the worlds

Art on the Horizon, featuring work by Theresa Jones, opens at noon Tuesday August 14 in Blue Horizon Business Park.

The official opening runs alongside a RL opening in St Ives, Cornwall, UK.
Although Theresa is now based in St Ives, she previously worked and lived in in New Orleans, and was there when Hurricane Katrina struck. Her paintings, saved from the hurricane, are currently viewable in SL and the gallery launch is roughly timed to commemorate the second anniversary of Hurricane Katrina.

Now get this, a large plasma screen will display live footage from both the SL gallery launch and the RL party in St Ives, and the launch will feature two-way webcasting from the St Ives gallery. So we get a simultaneous art gallery launch in both worlds. In RL, the cameras will show the SL gallery at the same time streaming live video into the SL gallery.

A little blurry? I’ll tell you about it after the event.
