In May of 2007, an avatar contest was held on Global Kids island in Teen Second Life. James Paul Gee, the noted professor, came to Global Kids to try on the various avatars- such as a chicken, a cyberninja and a dragon -- while reflecting on a variety of issues related to games, learning, avatars and online identity.
This segment is called:

"In the modern world, art and technology are not separated anymore. They go hand in hand and the divide between art, science, and technology are disappearing."
