He has been called one of the most important people of the twenty-first century by Esquire magazine. He is one of MIT's leading computer design gurus. And he is now in 3-D! On Friday, August 4, 2006 at 5:00 p.m. SLT, John Maeda will discuss virtual communities and his thoughts on the new wave of the future. Hosted by John Hockenberry, this historic mixed-reality broadcasting event, called “Through the Looking Glass” is the first of a four-part recording series. Residents will be able to ask questions of the guests in a town-hall style event in The Infinite Mind sim. The music and conversation will be broadcast on live streaming audio as well as being simulcast at The Infinite Mind website. Tickets are free and will only be available beginning 9 a.m. SLT the day of each show. The Infinite Mind sim will be open at 9 a.m. each day. Click the ticket booth at the amphitheater to receive your ticket and be added to the guest list. To ensure an enjoyable experience to all in attendance, low lag rules will be strictly enforced. Prim hair, skirts, animators, poofers and attachments of any kind will not be allowed under any circumstances. Collars and furries excepted. Go Now!

Try any and all of these links to connect. http://www.lcmedia.com/secondlife/For Video: If the link for Quicktime from this website doesn't work try these directions: If the video refuses to play at that web address, try opening the Quicktime Player software, click File > Open URL, and type in "rtsp://qt.venuma.com/im.sdp" and hit enter. For Audio: If the link for winamp from this website doesn't work try these directions: If not, try opening one of the aforementioned media players, click "Open Location" (or "Open URL" or "Open Stream", depending on the player) and type in http://lcm.serverroom.us:4338/listen.pls and hit enter. If that doesn't work, try typing in http://lcm.serverroom.us:4338 instead and hit enter. After a few seconds of buffering, the audio should start playing. To get to the sim: Last night it wasn't visible to most people. Perhaps it was only visible to those that had tickets. But if you want to get to the island try these directions: To get to The Infinite Mind's campus log into Second Life with your account. If this is your first time in Second Life (aka "in world"  , then we suggest giving yourself 15-30 minutes to proceed through "Orientation Island"...it's very helpful in getting you used to moving around inside Second Life. Once that's done, click MAP and in the REGION textbox, search for "The Infinite Mind" sim. Click TELEPORT and you'll appear at our campus. Head over to the Ampitheater and you'll see the concert. If it hasn't before, Second Life will ask you if you want to make your music control active, you'll want to answer "yes". A small control box for the music will appear in the bottom center of your screen. Click the "play" button and adjust the volume slider as needed.

Is there any plan to offer tickets at some point to those of us who work 9-5? Or will we continue to be locked out of actually attending at the point of origin?

Ticket time and attachments
08-04-2006 13:12
I doubt any tickets will be left by the time I get home from work on the event days. Also Collars and Furries can wear attachments -  I would go nakked if I could still keep in my teeth  - Vampires attachment is only 1 object made of 2 single prims

Just letting everyone know that there are still tickets available for the show tonight! The ticket booth is the black and glass thing on stage at the auditorium. Also, for those that don't know, much of the technology that we use in SL would not be possible if it weren't for the brilliant mind of Dr. Maeda. He is a fascinating thinker and design guru. For more info on his work, check out his webpage and his page at MIT. Guaranteed to be a mind-stretching and boggling event

Streaming The Infinite Mind on your Media Parcel
08-04-2006 17:40
FYI -- for those of you looking to pull the audio stream into your sim via the media parcel player, you should be using the URL: http://lcm.serverroom.us:4338. This is an acceptable URL format for an SL media parcel stream. The other URL is a non-compliant format and will not stream to your media parcel. /BB/ From: milady Guillaume Try any and all of these links to connect. http://www.lcmedia.com/secondlife/For Video: If the link for Quicktime from this website doesn't work try these directions: If the video refuses to play at that web address, try opening the Quicktime Player software, click File > Open URL, and type in "rtsp://qt.venuma.com/im.sdp" and hit enter.
