Exporting 3D objects into the real world

“Export to World” by Linda Kostowski and Sascha Pohflepp is a workshop/project that aims to create real-world copies of virtual objects found in the multi-player world of “Second Life”. The site features some how-tos on exporting objects, importing into 3D applications and “unfolding” the objects into 2D cutouts you can print out and assemble at home. Doesn’t this glazed, Second Life donut look tasty?

    So what’s the purpose of this, to show how woefully inadequate virtual reality is? When things start to look like “The Matrix” then I may be impressed and start worrying. So which pill is it I take, the blue one or the red one?
