My interest was piqued by an exhibition I saw advertised called 'Death by Design'. I teleported over to see it and found myself on an island called the Institute of New Religions & Ideology - how intriguing!
The exhibition is arranged as if in a museum. I can't help but think that it doesn't make the best use of Second Life. It would be so much more interesting if it was interactive in some way. Thursday's Fiction was truly thought-provoking. In contrast, this was interesting but hardly engaging.
The build was created by Guardian Light Publications and a quick look at their website is very interesting (far more interesting and useful than their Second Life presence!) A look in another building shows another museum-like build - this time displaying information, two-dimensionally, about various minority religions.
I didn't hang around here too long. It's much easier to go to the relevant website for this kind of two-dimensional information. Why struggle with camera controls when there's an alternative? Still, the build is quite nice, very atmospheric.
