In this two-hour hands-on world building session, we will start by reviewing a range of Open Wonderland features. For the bulk of the session, we will focus on building a virtual space from scratch. By the end of the session, attendees will be able to add content to the world including graphics, video, slide shows, 3D models, and shared application, arrange that content, and add "capabilities" such as audio, tooltips, clickable links, security, and a variety of others. For this workshop you are encouraged to bring your own laptop. Windows, Mac, or Linux are all fine, but please check the minimum system requirements in the Open Wonderland FAQ to be sure your laptop will work (http://openwonderland.org/about/faq#Download). This workshop is open to everybody, also for not registered at the Summit, but there is a limit of 15 participants. If you want to attend this session, please send an e-mail to any of these addresses: dmorillo@it.uc3m.es or dmaroto@it.uc3m.es |
