The VCU Sculpture Department is
using different three dimensional computer technologies to create
objects and environments that can be shared over the World Wide
Web. One web page accessible project uses Virtual Reality Modeling
Language (VRML) to create interactive 3-dimensional simulations
that incorporate animation, sound, and motion physics. A second
project is a collaboration with Boston University's Scientific
Computing and Visualization Group that uses the Access Grid,
a software application that runs on the Internet 2, and permits
three dimensional "virtual" experiences to be simultaneously
shared among participants in different remote locations. Individual
participants in this environment can examine a common shared
space and interactively create drawings within that space.
