Life is Art: Arimo Teixeira

Mario Metsovaara Torrez, a.k.a Arimo Teixeira in the virtual world of Second Life, is one of the subjects in the dissertation study of Deborah "Debe" Wise of the University of Colorado Denver. Wise's is entitled Life as Art: The Interplay of Real and Crafted Identities Among Virtually Performing Musicians in Second Life. The study uses her experience as Flameheart Sol, founder of the House of Flames live music venue in Second Life, to observe normal psychosocial development and subject-object orientation among musicians in the interdependence of real and virtual identities. More of Wise's work can be found at ‪http://debwise.com.
