Architects and builders in Second Life

Architects and builders in Second Life

       Haha! This time we were architects and builders! What did it mean? It meant that we learned how to build! Each of us were architects and builders. We had to design what we wanted to create as an architect, and practice it as a builder. It sounded not so difficult, but, in fact, it bothered me at that time. It was a little bit hard that I did not know what to create. Well, maybe I needed more imagination.

Alright, where we built was Beautiful Beach. In Figure 1, we gathered here again. Then, we started to build. What I built first was a tree. For those who never play Second Life, they might think that I am so talented. Hahaha! In fact, it was pretty easy. I just clicked to choose ‘tree’ and dragged onto the ground. Then, it showed up! You can see the tree in Figure 2, behind the ball. How about the ball? It was also my creation with cute Donald Duck’s image. Both of the tree and ball were not difficult to create.

       In Figure 3, I also made a sign which showed Made in Taiwan (the image on it is from http://stn.eslite.com/Article.aspx?id=226). Taiwan is my country. I am a Taiwanese. We Taiwanese prefer the products made in our own country, as others from different ones do. The black image in the middle is the shape of Taiwan. Chinese on the sign means Made in Taiwan 100%.

By the way, in the end of the class today, Emma asked us to record what we said. As so, here is a video. Evelyn and I were talking about the Figure 2 and 3. Enjoy!
