A Man and a Chair
One spring night, Mind Carlberg was hanging out, minding his own business, when suddenly he had the urge to rez two walls and a chair. He was feeling especially happy, so he took off his clothes and started taking pictures of himself around the chair. Of the more than one hundred pictures he took that night, he framed 24, mounted an exhibit and then invited his friends to take their own pictures.
The response he got has been amazing. There are now more than one hundred self-portraits in the exhibit, all of them based on a simple idea: a chair and a naked body. And very fittingly, the installation is mounted in the Buried Man sim, a place devoted to exploring all kinds of artistic manifestations.
Would you be interested? Come to and take a look at Naked with a Chair. If you are so inclined... be a part of it too. But even if you don’t, you’ll want to see what so many people have done with that chair. And you’ll have a great time watching all the other installations around the sim.
