On June 17, 2007, I gave a presentation of my piece A Rose Heard At Dusk at Dorkbot SL, the Second Life chapter of Dorkbot. They have adopted the Dorkbot motto of “People doing strange things with electricity” to “People doing strange things with SL”. An excellent turnout to hear a great presentation by Miulew Takahe (Björn Eriksson in RL) and Bingo Onomatopoeia presenting the Avatar Orchestra Metaverse (AOM) followed by yours truly. Here is a report, more screenshots, and a chat transcript from Evo Szuyuan who organised the event.

It went very well, and it was gratifying to see so many people accessing my work, even though Rose is designed to be a fairly intimate work for 2 or 3 people. This session saw more like 20 people in there, so there were lots of sounds happening all the time - an interesting version. Miulew recorded it, and posted a podcast.
