Preserving Virtual Worlds
Written on February 18, 2008 by Katherine W. Prawl
After the Metaverse U conference for the past two days you’d think I was ready to take a rest or maybe get some real work done, but no! Today and tomorrow I’m participating (remotely, via Skype conference call) in a workshop with some of the same people at Stanford. This time, we’re working with the Library of Congress on a project to archive ephmereal 3D content in virtual worlds (VWs).
Several months ago, Henrik Bennetsen, research director at Stanford Humanities Lab asked me if the International Spaceflight Museum would agree to participate in the project as one of a few test subjects. Our museum planning group agreed, so here I am.
I won’t be “live blogging” this workshop, since I need to concentrate on what’s being said rather than try to capture the bare events, but I will come back to this blog space to comment on some of the highpoints.
