The virtual communities created by online games have provided us with a new medium for social interaction and communication. Avatar Machine is a system which replicates the aesthetics and visuals of third person gaming, allowing the user to view themselves as a virtual character in real space via a head mounted interface. The system potentially allows for a diminished sense of social responsibility, and could lead the user to demonstrate behaviors normally reserved for the gaming environment.

Damned! They stole my design. I've actually been designing exactly this thing without knowing someone else where doing it. The only thing I didn't include was the odd animewannabe outfit. Anyways feels nice not to be aloe then.

Hilarious project.. interesting to find out how this different perspective would lead to a different feeling of self and possible different moral. Rolf, i've cleaned up the post a bit, scaled the youtube and added tags.
