Virtual Worlds from the Other Side of the World: The hybrid virtual worlds of Singapore

The following is a presentation given by CarrieLynn D. Reinhard at the project’s October 1 workshop on Augmenting Reality.

This presentation contains my initial analysis of the Singapore virtual world Singapore 2010 Odyssey. The analysis focuses on how the virtual world is constructed and positioned as a “hybrid world” by its developers and content/design structures. The conceptualization of a “hybrid world” is discussed by demonstrating the virtual world’s features.

The PowerPoint used in this presentation is available by following this link.
