Death and Resurrection of the Ivory Tower
Today in Second Life (2006.06.17), Lumiere Noir demolished his old Ivory Tower and invited us to visit his new one. In SL, the Ivory Tower is a holy grail of learning how to build hands-on in 3D, for those who don't like squinting at notecards. The Tower itself is a fine work of art, with many intricate levels and geometric forms arranged in cascading structures leading to the top floor. And, bonus points for being so warm and welcoming despite the cliched snobby name. ;)
