Coinciding with the first of a series of articles in Aperture magazine by Fred Ritchin exploring “postphotographic” media and emerging technologies, this panel focuses on the community within Second Life, where within a 3D world, users can explore, build, and socialize. Panelists include Fred Ritchin, a contributing editor to Aperture magazine and professor at NYU; Michael Van Horn, curator of the Joseph Monsen Collection in Seattle, and Richard Minsky, founder of the Center for Book Arts, an independent not-for-profit organization.
