Conversation Week in Second Life
We’ve always said Conversation Week is a grand experiment. Yesterday, a group of people tested out the Conversation Cafe process in the virtual world Second Life. Check out these snapshots, taken by a participant who goes by the name ~C4Chaos, who blogged about the experience here.
We’re looking forward to more reports from participants, particularly on how well the Conversation Cafe process transfers into this virtual world where, even though users are represented by humanoid avatars and some can chat by voice, most communication happens in the form of live text chat.
Special thanks to Vivienne Cassavetes for hosting this dialogue at her Peacemaker Institute on Second Life’s Commonwealth Islands.
Vivienne will host one more Conversation Week dialogue tomorrow (Friday) at noon SLT (that’s Second Life Time; same as US Pacific time). If you would like to join tomorrow’s event, please RSVP here.
These Conversation Week dialogues are just the beginning. After this week, Vivienne will be hosting ongoing Conversation Cafes at the Peacemaker Institute every Wednesday. Join the group “Conversation Cafe” in SL for updates and weekly questions.
