MetaMeets in the making


MetaMeets 2012 is up and running. Only a few little details need to come in place as we thought of a new topic for the Friday afternoon after seeing the movie “The Singularity is Near”.(2010)
It has been an interesting road to organize MetaMeets 2012. We most realize that user created virtual worlds is still not adopted by the masses especially after the hype of 2007.
But we never gave up developing in all areas.
Still it was hard to find new topics not because of lack of it but so many topics still not covered.
Plus we want to interact with the participants and also give workshops to share and learn.
Especially as Mesh was introduced for content creation.
Still it was hard to think of a right direction. Till around March / April Cloudparty was added to the list of user created virtual worlds. From that moment in my point of view there is a circle and topics were born.
To have a web based user created virtual world you can create your 3D object on a user created virtual world show it to the mass with just one click, get feedback from around the world and give it the ability to print it out in 3D.
With that idea The Art of Creation: Virtuality meets Reality existed as theme for this year MetaMeets.
But not only about content creations but also about connecting with reality and document it as in machinima’s.
And we always try to go beyond. 3D internet, User created virtual worlds proved after many years still to be useful in the global usage of the internet.
With the widespread approach we hope you will enjoy another MetaMeets.
