PeaceFest 08 is a three day benefit event for worldwide peace running from the 15th Aug to the 17th. Covering ten sims, this festival will feature live music, theatre and dance performances, art exhibitions, panel discussions and a rally at the SL Central Park.

All proceeds from PeaceFest 08 will go benefit several charities including Amnesty International, UNICEF, the World Peace Organization, ONE.org, the World Council On Religions and Peace and Kids for Peace.

The NMC Campus, PeaceFest 2008 and CARP are delighted to announce that 'The Wall V-2' will be performed in Second Life as part of this great festival at 2pm SLT on the 15th August and 17th August 2008.

'The Wall V-2' is collaboration of international artists working with the Cybernetic Art Research Project (CARP) to bring a unique vision and interpretation of Pink Floyd's "The Wall" into Second Life ™. It is an extravaganza of sound, light, dance, giant animated puppets, effects and many other surprises set to the original soundtrack.

Since opening in April 2008, the show has been performed 24 times to more than 1800 people, always accompanied by rave reviews and filled sims.
