This networked-multiuser-VR artwork has been shown at SigGraph96
(NewOrleans,) ArsElectronica96 (Linz,) and DEAF96 (Rotterdam). While it
returns to Japan, it upgraded its version for #3!.

In this version, new features are added to enable some accessibility
from the Internet. From the homepage, you can open/close the links
between each virtual room which is neccessary for the people who travels
from the kiosk at the gallery. For example, if you close links of a
certain room, from the Internet, people accessing to it from the gallery
gets impossible to move around. You will become the only person who can
help enlive the people traveling the virtual world.

To make a change of this virtual map, please access to the following
address:

From this page, you can see both the real-time captured images of the
gallery, and the real-time images which people accessing from the kiosk
is seeing. Also, you can see the status of links between each rooms
in the VR space that you are Opening/Closing.
