Worlds

"Avatar worlds are perhaps the most interesting VR at the dawn of the millennium because they are accessible to millions of users, and hundreds of builders are experimenting with these shared worlds to express their vision of virtual reality."
The Transfigured, Transmogrified Virtual World, Michael Heim

Welcome to the wonderfully wild, entertainingly educational, new and improved, bolder, brighter, historical, fantastical, sublime and self-illuminating, ever-expanding and endlessly evolving pulp future pastime of virtual 3D world exploration. Yep. Time, space, identity -- all become Playdough with the fabric of reality a kaleidoscopic concept. Crazy, huh? You betcha, by golly, wow!

Here, humbly presented for your edification and mental digestion, is a dazzling array of our most recent confections, served factory fresh and chock full of fun under fabulous forever sunshine skies.

Lost Vegas - The desert is weird, and Vegas is even weirder. Lost Vegas World plays a pop-cultural riff on the long gone retro-Vegas of yesteryear. Here, the Rat Pack performs nightly in a Haunted Desert Inn, as Howard Hughes wanders dazed across sun scorched sands. Meanwhile, the Shangri-La Showgirls' Hot Rod Revue is revving up in the Jet Set Room -- or, you can try and navigate the maze of hallways heading to the Space Lounge. You can even follow the Lost Highway out of the city to explore a full-sized, old western ghost town.

An insanely huge world, it's literally miles across and will take a few minutes to download via dial-up. Currently still under construction.

Shangri-La - This was built sometime in early April, months before the Lost Vegas idea... but that mid-60s girl group look seemed to fit when filtered thru the lens of a lounge act -- replete, if you please, with circa '67 psychedelic showbiz schmaltz. Slip into a Tom Jones or Nancy Sinatra avatar and get with what's happenin'. Music by The Dave Myers Effect.
