Why Spim in Secondlife are interesting?

Second Life is an environment very suitable for
Spim
because inside you can
experiment with objects, which all have their place
per se.


What data can be collected for example in Second Life?


objects in Second Life can collect a plethora of information and in turn, may exchange such information with each other in a relationship "Machine to Machine . Some of these recorded data could be the number of avatars within a radius of 50 meters during the period of the day, or the amount of characters you type in chat, etc etc.

started with references to her teachers, as Jane Jackobs,
Christopher Alexander and Bernard Rudowsky
. Through their architectural and urban theories
showed how everyone could contribute
with little effort to make the best
our city. The slogan also carried through to a sticker pasted on your Laptop
says: "You are the city"
(You are the city).




Much has been said of the city.
City as the result of design or part of the city as a whole
(planet earth). Like
note that in this particular historical period, the theme of the city is a topic of great interest
.
