The Kansas To Cairo Project Part 1 (Second Life Machinima)

Students from Cairo and Los Angeles used the virtual world of Second Life to design a large open space situated between the Grand Egyptian Museum and the Pyramids of Giza.
And yes: they had never met in the physical world, using merely their avatars to communicate, collaborate and create sustainable urban design solutions while overcoming cultural boundaries.

Half the people here are 10 year olds that only want to see a steady flow of identical black ops gameplay videos every five minutes. This is far to complex for them to even begin to understand.

this is really interesting, if you think it is boring then leave you imbicile!!

[Mcfly1233]

technology will be the end of us all

[gamewize6]

i tried playing it but i was so confused the whole time and i didnt find any real people for 3 days so i just stopped playing lol

[LktAlfra]

@Gielinorian And what the problem at being 8? I'm sure that many Eight Years Old kids could have a much more adult behavior than yours...

And no, I wasn't looking for attention.

Can I only make a question?

Why are bashing at me? Did I said anything wrong?

[raynhornzxz]

THIS IS NICE =D

[MultiMung]

@pkerch00b1

I'm not saying that communicating by using the internet is a bad idea, but do people have to get a second live, an avatar and design a virtual working room instead of writing E-Mails?

[PaintsByNumbers]

I saw Second Life and thought the worst. Just happy there were no furries.

[jeavii]

Why is this in michinima

[ssj4gogeta444]

@Tinymclean but games are fun ='(

[pkerch00b1]

@MultiMung so what you would be sugesting is that the class in caito or kansas have to fly home and back everyday so that they can performe a school project......Ya real life is a good way to comunicate but there isnt anything wrong with the internet. You made a youtube acount so you could ut video's on youtube or leave a comment or rate a vid this also includes communicating...just saying
