Press Release: Intergrid Metaverse Art Biennial

Intergrid Metaverse Art Biennial (IMAB)
Grand Opening September 6, 2012 at 1.30pm PDT/SLT
Simultaneously in France, Hungary and Second Life

The Intergrid Metaverse Art Biennial (IMAB) is a six-month long
metaverse art festival. It is a historic first, celebrating the new
art of the evolving Metaverse.

In the 21st century virtual reality is home to new forms of artistic
collaboration in which national and art form boundaries disappear. New
art forms, as yet unnamed, emerge, as well as new expressions of the
visual arts, music, dance, poetry and drama.

The festival spans different grids - InWorldz, OSGrid, Craft,
Metropolis and other Open Sim grids, and Second Life.

It opens on 6th September in honour of the 100th anniversary of the
birth of architect Nicolas Schöffer, the father of Cybernetic Art. The
CHANGE will launch on that day in Benvolio, Second Life, in his
honour.
