Introduction.

My art class makes me fall asleep because all I hear is, "Art is not just production, quality, and expression"; but that is all I know it to be. It seemed that art could be in any form and since the new generation, 3D or virtual worlds/games ranked number one. I began to think about second life and I realized that second life is the most amazing form of art ever created. Second life is a 3D form of art and it contains many different Sims involving theaters and museums. The arts of second life can be expressed in many different forms and expressions. According to Susan Steinbeck, creator of the Art Gallery Owners Group, there are over 900 different art galleries in second life. An avatar can play, interact, touch, and watch the art in second life. Museums in second life play a major role; the quality is what makes museums the main attraction in second life. Some museums are historical and educational, while others are fun and hands-on. However, theaters are the most exciting and there are many different productions taken place in various locations. Theaters in second life produce great plays, such as Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet, and Macbeth.

~~Theater, Museums, and Art in Second Life~~ Thesis Statement

Theaters in second life produce great plays, such as Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet, and Macbeth.

I have decided to change my paper topic..... From Social Interaction to Theater, Museums, and Art in Second Life

SOCIAL INTERACTION

Interacting with people in Second Life is easier than interacting with people in the real world because you wouldn’t be as nervous and you could express yourself freely.
