[ISEA2009] Artists Talk: Paul Sermon, Charlotte Gould & Peter Appleton – Urban Intersections, 2009

Artists Statement

This collaborative urban installation brings together multi-user virtual environment research within a site-specific Second Life urban intersection, designed and constructed for presentation at the Waterfront Plaza in Belfast. By reflecting on the ironies of contested spaces, and stereotypes in multi-user virtual environments, this project exposes the cultural identity, gender roles, digital consumption and virtual desire within this augmented world.
