Primtings is a “primmed paintings” museum.
“We are a museum
dedicated to the
interactive explora-
tion of famous
paintings and art-
work brought to
virtual life via 3d
prims and other
techniques.”
“The role of art is to make a world which
can be inhabited.”
To help create “What Second Life can be,” Primtings contributes
to the Prime sLiterary Initiative to bring the arts to virtual worlds
to help make a better virtual world… because art humanizes the
globe.
—- William Saroyan
aspires to...
To explore how traditional 2D art can be directly adapted to the virtual world of Second Life by different SL artists. Primtings presents innova-
tions in virtual world avant-garde art with each exhibit adding more than
just a new 3rd dimension, but often also interactivity, and interpretations
only possible in the virtual world, as envisioned by a range of master new
media artists.
Participating Artists (as of 2009): AM Radio, Blue Tsuki, Bryn Oh,
Cel Edman, Dekka Raymaker, Eshi Otawara, Gatz Morang,
Ina Centaur, Kacy Despres, Paula Dix, Shellina Winkler,
Solkide Auer, Tezcatlipoca Bisiani, Ub Yifu, Voodoo Shilton,
Wizard Gynoid, Wyatt Wellman, Zephyru Zapedzki
To share the wealth of RL art history through famous paintings with SL
residents, in a uniquely SL-way. Primtings educates its visitors in both RL
art and SL artistic techniques, through informative kiosks associated with
each exhibit and Primtings.com website content.
Thousands of SL residents have experienced Primtings since its
founding in 2008—all through word of mouth!
RL Schools from K-12 to higher education have brought their
students and faculty to Primtings, through computer lab activi-
ties, on-screen presentations, and extracurricular assignments.
Goal: To raise tier for our island on SL, for the upcoming year
beginning in March 2010.
In Second Life: To be able to expand
each exhibit to an entire sim, such
that one might truly be able to “walk
into the world of a painting”—or live
in one! . In “Real Life”: To be able to create an
entire museum of 3d recreations of
2D paintings in “real life.”
From having your name engraved on a wall in the virtual world’s
most formidable art museum to gaining entry to the coolest art pa-
trons’ party on SL to coveting exclusive-access to Primtings Museum...
to getting a real 3d replica of a primting snail mailed to you in RL!
