Call-out Points:

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: Hi everyone, and welcome to this weeks SL Education Roundtable.

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: These meetings are made possible by the Office of Information Technology at Montclair State University.

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: We meet here each week at 2:30pm SLT for an hour. Normally our meetings are roundtable in style.

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: Today is our Special 1st of the Month meeting, when we feature a particular person or panel of people.

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: For these Special First of the Month Meeting the guest(s) and I use voice chat. This means that you need to have your voice chat on.

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: There are help signs along the back wall of the Amphitheater.

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: If you are still having problems, please IM Margaret Michalski for assistance.

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: It is very important that you keep your mic muted during the meeting.

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: If you have a question for our guest, please IM me directly and, time and subject permitting, it will get addressed.

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: The local chat is available as a back channel and I encourage everyone to use that to comment. The local chat can go by rather quickly.

Olivia Hotshot: 50 people in the sim for the transcript

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: That is why it is important that you IM your questions directly to me.

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: As a hint, it is better to have "local chat" open for these meetings, it will help you follow the conversation better.

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: You can find local chat by clicking COMMUNICATE in the bottom navigation bar and you'll find LOCAL CHAT as one of the tabs at the bottom of the Communicate window.

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: This is a public meeting, so we do keep a transcript of what is said in local chat.

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: For the convenience of those unable to use voice, and for the history of the chat transcript, we do try to have transcribers.

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: For today's meeting Mirt Tenk will be capturing the essences of what Jon and I are saying in voice into text.

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: This week's transcript will appear by week's end, so please have a look!

Mirt Tenk: yw

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: I encourage everyone to join the group and to take pictures from our meeting and add them to the group. Its a great way to show, and grow, our community.

RightAsRain Rimbaud: olivia rox

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: I'm Joe Essid, University of Richmond Dept. of Rhetoric & Communication Studies

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: and it is my great pleasure to introduce tonight's guest, Jon Himoff, CEO of Rezzable

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: Jon's work with virtual worlds is well known and broadly respected in SL and beyond.

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: Prior to founding Rezzable in 2007, he held CEO-roles at enterprise-software development and services companies that delivered innovation solutions via hosted platforms and advanced planning technologies.

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: Rezzable may best be known for Greenies, the whimsical and powerfully envisioned sim in Second Life that puts visitors in the perspective of pint-sized aliens who have invaded the earth, or at least one very unlucky house.

SLER_10_6_09_003

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: A few images from the SL sim appear on the presenter behind us. Greenies can be found in SL at http://slurl.com/secondlife/Greenies%20Home%20Rezzable/128/128/32

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: While Rezzable made some outstanding content in SL, the company decided this year to withdraw most content from this virtual world and instead concentrate heavily on the Heritage Key project, starting with an immersive Virtual King Tut experience using the Open Sim virtual world technology. For information on this world, consult http://heritage-key.com/ and follow the links to create an avatar to explore ancient Egypt.

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: Given Jon's role as a preeminent content creator in SL and elswhere, we're honored to have him as our guest tonight.

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: Let's plunge right in with a few questions.

RightAsRain Rimbaud blushes

Mirt Tenk: ty!

RightAsRain Rimbaud: ty

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: What got you interested in virtual worlds?

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: the future of the 3D web, first imagined in SciFi & moviesw, now in SL

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: you can also create your env in SL

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: learned about SL from cousin David who runs LanguageLab

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: they're using SL to teach languages

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: my cousin pestered me for a year before I tried it

Mirt Tenk: Iggy: how long have you been inworld?

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: I've had mult avs

Mirt Tenk: that was supposed to be a quote

Mirt Tenk: yay!

Olivia Hotshot straight from Norcal. =)

Mirt Tenk: Iggy: If you want info RE HeritageKey, see TieDyed Beachball for info (touch)

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: Tell our audience about the sorts of services that Rezzable provides its clients.

Mirt Tenk: Iggy said: RE Rezzable, tell us about yoru services

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we didn't provide services initially

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: when looking @ VW space we thought we'd created our own brands & destinations

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: that seemed a better investment of our time to demo to other companies what is possible

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: the whole VW online exp is still v new, many don't understand it well yet

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we decided to "get on w/it" and make things

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: Heritage Key is the first content-centered area w/community

Mirt Tenk: Iggy said: Why Virtual Online Experience instead of using "Virtual World?"

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: VW is a fairly old concept

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: SL isn't the first or last VW

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: good point, that

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: I don't like the metaphor of our planet as a constraint on a virtual experience

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: SL is more of a Virtual land sales company
Oct0609_020

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we didn't get into virtual land

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: this seems flawed

Thinkerer Melville: great for those people who can make the land

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: I can see why others use this concept & take advantage of it

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: I believe computer capacity & speed should become faster over time

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: virtual land in that instance won't increase in value

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: you are early adopters

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: next mass market won't be interested in virtual land

Mirt Tenk: Iggy said: I like that

Olivia Hotshot: 57 in sim for transcript

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: if I was longer @ the pub I might argue virtual land is not an accurate or legal term

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: land can't be virtual by definition

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: metaphor gives comfort & orientation & land is useful in that sense

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: can't create a contract w/someone over something thtat doesn't exist

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: Virtual land sales people want to create false sense of capacity to increase prices

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: technology drives the opposite direction

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: someone like King Tut: everyone should be able to come see it

Mirt Tenk: shouldn't be restricted to a quarter of a SL server

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: Rezzable is best know for Greenies. What inspired that concept?

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: when we began Rezzable

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: wanted to explore qualities of virtual environment

Olivia Hotshot: Not Possible in Real Life

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: ??community

Olivia Hotshot: <-- proud member

Mirt Tenk: ty Olivia

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: artist community much more exploratory

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we want to take advantage of the native material in the env

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: w/Greenies we were inspired by the figures

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: when he (?) understood how to make stuff in SL

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: he could make realistic things but chose to make createive things

LittleToe Bartlett: he= Light Waves

Mirt Tenk: ty LToe

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: Light Waves always inspired us, took advantage of what was possible

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we created an environment to showcase that

Oct0609_015

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: what makes greenies great is that everyone goes there & has fun doing random stuff, meeting people, goofing off, exploring meetin others virtually

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: it's a fun place

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: it fits the SL community & experience well

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: more than 2.5 million have been through the Greenies experience

Mirt Tenk: Iggy said: my students love to go to Greenies & play

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: If you had to look back over your work in SL, what would you say is the most complete realization of Rezzable's vision?

Mirt Tenk: Iggy asked: RE all your work in SL, what is the most complete realization of Rezzable's vision?

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: Heritage Key

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: Greenies is a good example of how people enjoy the virtual env

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: yes it makes sense...more than a playground

Mirt Tenk: but not the purpose of it

Olivia Hotshot: <-- 1 of the millions - Greenies: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Greenies%20Home%20Rezzable/145/16/23

Mirt Tenk: Iggy said: many educators here may not know what Open Sim is

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: OpenSim is a 3D Online simulator

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: similar to SL but written separately and behaves differently

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: OpenSim replicates many SL features but provides different opportunities

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we run our own Open Sim servers

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: We run Drupal and run our own grid

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: quality of prims & scultpies is identical to SL

Mirt Tenk: Iggy Said: got my first av in Reaction Grid this week

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: Why did Rezzable choose to remove most of their SL content? What might get you to expand your work again in the Linden metaverse again?

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we view Rezzable as a content creator for virtual experience

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: if it's on different platforms, we're not committed to a platform

Ahlan Oh: How to you fund your work with Heritage Key?

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: you don't buy software, you buy a relationship w/a software developer

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we're on the web as a 2D experience

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we are talking w/OpenSim

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we like OpenSim b/c it is less risky b/c you don't deal w/a Software dev house, you deal w/the code

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we've been fortunate to work w/the core dev team on OpenSim

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: We don't make the software

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we migrated off of SL b/c SL is too expensive and LL is not as responsive as we need

Ahlan Oh: How to you fund your work with Heritage Key?

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: Rezzable & Heritage Key are about experience, not platform

Mirt Tenk: ty whew

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: Tell us about Heritage Key and the Virtual King Tut experiences. How do you imagine educators might use these resources?

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: everyone wants to have a personal experience w/some ancient world site

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: ppl go to Egypt, Stonehenge, Chichen Itza, etc

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: I hope you do Istanbul!

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: everyone wants to personally explore the ancient world

Lokum Shilova: :)

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: Generally, you don't understand what you're looking at; you can get a tour from a guide or read a book but not a sense of the original creation of it

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: Terra Cotta Warriors--saw the exhibit--thought could make them in a VW, could make them they way they were first created

Mirt Tenk: not as they are now

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: made us think this is a domain w/a VW that is fantastic, lets you travel through time & space, can't possibly see all of them in RL

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: Heritage Key concept is a lot of web material

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: the virtual piece adds a new & exciting dimension

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: can see who discovered it, why it was made, how made

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: interact w/others w/similar experiences

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: you can see virtual Stonehenge, learn more about it today that you can't do elsewhere

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: combo of web w/virtual has unique impact

Mirt Tenk: Iggy told his students to imagine building Stonehenge

Oct0609_017

Mirt Tenk: Iggy said: we've discussed museums & their resistance to using this type of technology. Are they changing their perspective on it?

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: that seems so odd

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: museums are interested in this, trying to do innovative stuff, not on bleeding edge of technology as a group

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: they don't have big budgets, not willing to take significant risk

Mirt Tenk thinks _Crossing the Chasm_ applies

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: more museums are incorporating more technology

Mirt Tenk: Iggy asked how do you vet your staff who write for your web portal?

Arielion Clawtooth: Do you get there through SL or is it an entirely different process?

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: they're professional journalists, we check writing samples & references

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we try to fact-check it as much as possible

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we're trying to allow people to decide which authors they want to trust

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: users can segment the content themselves

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we don't tolerate abuse but try to allow people to share their opinions

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we're trying to be respectful of people's opinions

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we do have a Rezzable grid which people can still access

Julala Demina: /do you have to have a new avatar for each opensim grid?

[Iggy's reply: It seems not, for the one I created with Reaction Grid. The client I used, from Hippo, lets me log on to multiple grids but of course my inventory will not follow me. I donÕt know if Open Sim avatars can log onto Heritage Key. I created an account just for that grid].

Mirt Tenk: Iggy asked from Olivia: all your prior SL content is now on the Rezzable Grid?

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: yes

Mirt Tenk pants

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: King Tut in particular is the greatest archeological find ever

SLER_10_6_09_016

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: Educators struggle with getting often-resistant students to create one avatar. What would be compelling enough about your OpenSim sites to get educators to try a second virtual world?

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: I've seen it three times

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: I saw that in Philly

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: saw in NY, London (more disappointing exhibition)

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: and Cairo

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: yes--disappointment in terms of the artifacts they chose to share

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: when you see it in a virtual environment you can see more, study at your own pace

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: the level of detail we can share is spectacular

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: you can read the hieroglyphics in detail, things you can't see in detail in RL exhibits

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: you won't get this from a book or an exhibition

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: it's a combo of details, understanding the context WHILE you are in the environment

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: virt environments are unbeatable for looking at details

Mirt Tenk: Iggy said: looking at assignments for his students at the King Tut exhibit

Mirt Tenk: Iggy asked about Builderbot

Mirt Tenk: ty

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: Your creation Builderbot made many residents angry at Rezzable. Could you first explain what builderbot does? Then tell us what you have changed to reduce
some of the anger expressed over your initial announcement to release it?

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: Builderbot is a toolset we used to move our content to OpenSim form SL

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: existing tools didn't work well for this

Olivia Hotshot cries.

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: 40 sims at one point in SL!
SLER_10_6_09_008

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: at one point we had about 40 sims and we abandoned about 20 of them

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: SL won't allow you to even pay to remove content from SL after paying to put it there

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we built a bot to take content out of our sims to move to OpenSim

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: LibOpenV is an Open Source Project

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: many people thought sharing the code would encouratge content theft

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we modified the code to allow only builders to move content

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: there may have been changes to the grid or issues around how we can archive stuff off of SL

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we're retooling the Builderbot and trying to decide if it's worth it

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: since we're focused on Heritage Key it's hard to allocate resources to maintain the tool

Olivia Hotshot: i'd give it to you Igg.

Mirt Tenk: Iggy said would like to make a backup copy of his own House of Usher project out side of SL

Mirt Tenk: Iggy said the tool would not permit him to take material made by others for him

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: all our property was developed under contracts which allow us to reuse the content however we want

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: our contractual agreements permitted us to take our stuff off of SL

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we talked to the Lindens about this

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: LL said "not really right, not really wrong"

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: it's a big gray area, many feelings emerged RE who can do what w/content

RightAsRain Rimbaud: ooooo matrix

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: You have considerable costs involved in running such a project as

Heritage Key. How it all funded?

SLER_10_6_09_005

RightAsRain Rimbaud likes the matrix

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: is there a danger the virtual will be superior to the real?

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: yeah, HK in particular, we say you have to go the site for the experience

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: how does an online exp enhance your experience

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we're aiming to add value to the real world

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we can process metaphor about time travel, allows you to fantasize or imagine & think back in time, build a richer understanding

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: is it different from what the Egyptians were going through? We want to try to trigger imaginations but not to have imagination supplant real life

Olivia Hotshot: 59 people in the sim

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we have investors

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: I've helped start other companies

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we've had two funding rounds

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: that's how you get new ideas going

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: other companies I've helped start have worked out well, so I have a track record

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we're looking to monetize the work we're doing

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we'd like to generate revenue from sponsorships, paid ads, paid access to more resource-intensive activities

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we are working on an educator toolkit

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: people may pay to use our DB to deliver specific stuff

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: may pay for enhanced resources

Mirt Tenk: Iggy said many of us are developing edu resources that might evolve into that
Oct0609_022

Olivia Hotshot claps.

Mirt Tenk: Iggy asked: if I do a Heritage Key assignment, will you encourage educators to develop materials and provide for free to others?

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: my project with HK: http://iggyssyllabus.pbworks.com/Saving-Isis

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: everything is Creative Commons, we ask people to provide attribution but can pull stuff off our site

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we won't be happy if people abuse our CC requests

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: Did they use an Egyptologist/Historian as a consultant on this Heritage Key project?

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: Yes we used several

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we were lucky to work w/leading Egyptologists in the world

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: working w/(name?) leading in this field

Olivia Hotshot: What does he think of Virtual investigations?

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we dont' know about archaeology, our role is to help people discover it

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we are working w/ppl who write about the topics, bloggers, authors, movie-makers

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we love all the experts

SLER_10_6_09_015

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: I'll get his name for our transcript, Mirt...I think it's at the site for HK

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we can package it and make it friendly so users can find it

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we're relying on the experts to explain all these discoveries & the relevance

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: I'll avoid the Spinal Tap refs

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we're getting interviews w/experts about Stonehenge

Ashy Viper: Zahir Hawaz was the name ... pretty sure

Melchizedek Blauvelt: Zahi Hawass, for whoever is looking for the name

Mirt Tenk: Iggy asked: was there any interest in the Smithsonian in the Virtual Tut exhibit?

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: these organizations are bureaucratic & hard to work with

Dagmar Kojishi: http://www.drhawass.com/

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we're working in Cairo

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: here in Europe there's the Louvre, Berlin museum

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: Smithsonian isn't at the top of our list

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: The Met in NY is a goal

Mirt Tenk: Iggy asked: what about future plans?

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: the big picture is that the whole online media is changing the world dramatically

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: online advertising has passed TV advertising in the UK

Oct0609_014

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: and note the projection that Hamlet Au published about VWs for business

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: the established media world is trying to come to grips w/dramatic changes

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we see the 3D web as fantastic opportunities (real-time social)

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: http://nwn.blogs.com/nwn/2009/10/new-world-newsfeed-.html

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we see multiple-device access to this coming soon

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: as convergence occurs, there will be a gap for new experiences

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: HK wants to pull all this together

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: this is where HK sees ourselves as a new media organization

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: great there is so much interest, esp among educators

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: TV has played down to lowest common denominator

Ignatius Onomatopoeia: good term there, to make "aspirational learning more fun"

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: we want to see people be more engaged and better community members (teach kids to become this)

Mirt Tenk: RightAsRain said: the Internet is one big community, we all need to be better community members
