When We Were Robots

Play Quicktime 7 | Play Flash

This is the first video of my machinima series When We Were Robots. I’ve been thinking of doing this longer than I’ve been videoblogging. I started experimenting with creating video using Second Life right after I started playing it in January 2004. I even used some video from the game in my theater show called Holodeck. Now that I have a computer that can run the game well I’ve been trying to learn all of the tricks that people have been developing over the last year or so.

One of the things that I’m really excited about with this is the ability for anyone to join in. Because it’s getting done in the virtual world it doesn’t matter if you’re in Germany (like Tao Takashi who helped me with this video) and I’m in the U.S. In Second Life, we’re in the same space.

So give Second Life a try - it’s free. Then teleport over and hang out with the robots.
