UWA Professor wins Pearson Prize for Second Life Study
.
Professor Wade Halvorson Teaching at the UWA Sky Theatre
A/Professor Wade Halvorson of the School of Business, University of Western Australia (UWA) has won the Pearson Education Prize for the best Case Study paper at the July 2010 Academy of Marketing Conference. The Academy of Marketing annual conference is the largest academic marketing conference in the United Kingdom, and was held this year at the Coventry University Business School.
The case study concerns “Virtual Dublin”, a very successful online business in the virtual world, Second Life (Halvorson, W., Bal, A.S., Pitt, L.F., and Parent, M. (2010) Cashing in on the Green Dots: Marketing Ireland in Second Life, Academy of Marketing Conference, Coventry University, UK. July 2010).
Professor Halvorson who uses Second Life as a teaching tool to undergraduate and postgraduate students at UWA for the Bachelor of Commerce and Masters by Coursework programmes said, “This means that Second Life businesses can be taken seriously. The case study presents a viable business model that works in the virtual world and that increased our knowledge in this field. Virtual world businesses have seen exponential growth. The total annual revenue of virtual products has reached a staggering USD 2 billion.”
Professor Halvorson described a paradigm breaking moment while he was completing his PhD at a Swedish University, while using Second Life to conduct classes with his students in Perth who were logged in at the UWA Sky Theatre within Second Life while simultaneously being addressed by a guest lecturer from Vancouver, Canada.
Since its official launch on the 2nd of October 2009, by Vice-Chancellor, Professor Alan Robson, the UWA presence in Second Life has seen a meteoric rise and is a recognized education leader in the virtual world.

“It opens up the world to my students. We have students using the computer labs to conduct international consumer behaviour research. Second Life also allows me to conduct tutorials in brand communities such as at Harley Davidson Island in Second Life and give students exposure to brand community members without leaving their desktop.”

FreeWee wins Imagine, Nyx Breen & Herrick Straaf share honours: June winners of the June 3D Art & Design Challenges
.
A brilliant and mesmerising piece by FreeWee Ling, VERTICAL SPIRAL KALEIDOSCOPE has taken top art honours (1st Prize: L$5,000) for the JUNE Imagine Round of the UWA 3D Art & Design Challenge! The Flagship (Architecture) Challenge went down to the wire, and in the end, the builds of Nyx Breen and Herrick Straaf could not be separated as the judging panel were hopelessly deadlocked, thus resulting in the first ever joint winners for the Flagship Challenge. Herrick a first time winner, and Nyx coming in with an incredible 5 wins across the 10 months of the challenge! Nicci Lane took 2nd Prize in the June Flagship Challenge.
Concluding the 1oth month of this year long L$550,000 challenge, June saw 68 amazing Imagine artworks and 7 Flagship builds submitted by artists hailing from all corners of the globe, including by a number legendary SL builders.
Commenting on the win, FreeWee said, "I am just astounded at this prize. The June round had some of the most amazing work yet seen, including many pieces by some of the true greats of SL. Artists who have truly inspired me for a long time. To win first place in this field of entries is truly humbling. I was amused to see several kaleidoscopic pieces in this round. The nature of SL prim building lends itself to recursive forms like that. It's not hard to create interesting forms. But I admit my discovery of the effects of gravity on rotating flexible prims was a happy one. There is almost and organic quality to the piece as the parts spin and dance."
South American winner Herrick Straaf was left stunned, "First, I have no words to describe my delight at winning this competition. It is an honor, since it's my first participation in the UWA Flagship challenge. I would like to thank everyone who gave me this vote and all of the jury and also to Keystone Bouchard who sent me a notecard about this contest. As a Brazilian, I have great affection for the people, culture and Australian architecture. The moment I heard about the contest, I became interested in researching more about Western Australia, and one of the first great impressions was the Stirling Park Ranges, which gave me the start to my building, so i made a reduced version with high-technology style of the Bluff Knoll peak. I am very pleased and honored to have had this recognition, and from now on will be tuned to the forthcoming events of UWA. My sincere thanks to everyone who recognized the work."
Takni Miklos - Rain Prize winner, Imagine 2nd prize & Joint 2nd prize People's Choice winner
Another first time entrant Takni Miklos won a host of prizes with her piece, Sierpinsky Sieve, taking the newly established Rain Prize, joint 2nd Prize in the People's Choice Award, and also joint 2nd Prize in the IMAGINE Art Challenge.
MidnightRain Glas, one of the founding patrons of the UWA 3D Art & Design Challenge and after whom the Rain Prize is named, explained, "Its very interactive, it tempts you to disobey the instructions, and you know you will, and so the artist.... is very clever and takes advantage of human weakness"
Takni herself was thrilled at the outcome, "I came to SL to chat and I didn't discover that you can build things here until a year later. Now I'm discovering that other people like my things, and I'm VERY surprised. Thanks to all."
pravda Core - Best Non-Scripted Imagine Prize Winner - June
The exquisite MEDUSA'S GAZE, masterfully crafted by pravda Core took the prize for Best Non-Scripted entry, and will prove very hard to dislodge in coming rounds. He's thrown down the gauntlet, and submitted his pieces for July already (The Vampire Heritage & The Minotaur's Wrath). A believer in the wonders SL can offer, pravda said, "nothing is impossible, dream, believe, be inspired and make it happen."
It was truly a month for joint awards, as EINSTEIN'S UNFINISHED SYMPHONY (Gleman Jun) and A BEAUTIFUL SOUL PASSES (Jeri Rahja) were both joint 2nd Prize winners, Imagine & People's Choice Awards respectively.
MUSIC OF THE SPHERES by Lea Supermarine & Jarapanda Snook also won a couple of awards taking 1st Prize in the People's Choice as well as the "Honourable Mention Prize for A BRIEF HISTORY OF EVERYTHING".
There were 5 Honourable Mention Prizes in all, with the others being won by Madcow Cosmos, Abstract Baroque, Silene Christen and Theoretical Afterthought.
Theoretical Afterthought - winner of Honourable Mention for Philosophy
Theoretical Afterthought put it very nicely when she said, "Recognition of someone's creative attempt to describe a feeling or emotion through the use of uncomplicated building blocks signals some degree of success, albeit temporary, for its creator. Being at the receiving end of that recognition for creation of The Panopticon is very cool, indeed. This being a build based on surveyance, on watching, on gazing, of one's physical depiction or that of others, I have to wonder what it signals to the spectator. It is that connection, that relationship that develops between the idea of the creator, and how the spectator receives it, that intrigues and challenges me. As a lifelong student of identity, introspection /self-reflection is always at the forefront of all my work."
Some other exciting developments with the UWA presence were announced at the awards ceremony.
First of all the Residents of Artemesia, through FreeWee Ling, have stepped in to help run a UWA 3D Art & Design Challenge Trophy Contest, to create a Trophy that will be given to the winners of the Grand Prizes in the UWA Challenges. The creator of the best trophy, that we select to use, will win a L$3,000 prize. The closing date for submissions of the trophy design is the 31st July 2010. Basically no scripts are allowed for the trophy, and the limit is 10 prims. There are notecards available here for anyone who might want to help design a trophy.
The Rain Prize was also established. This is a special prize of L$1,000 offered by one of the founding patrons of the UWA 3D Art & Design challenge. This Rain Prize winner will be selected by the patron and provided for the June, July & August rounds.
We also had Second Life's 7th Birthday (SL7B) celebrations happen and UWA were represented by a lovely build by quadrapop Lane which was dedicated to the 180++ SL residents who have taken part in UWA events. JayJay gave a talk at SL7B which described all the "Unexpected Collaborations" that have driven the growth of the UWA presence.
Thanks was given to the master machinimatographer Iono Allen who created the Machinima of the May winners. His works have been much sought after, and his amazing interpretation of the winners will be sorely missed for the June round winners as Iono goes away on RL holiday. We are lucky however to have another very accomplished machinimatographer Suzy Yue, to pick up the reins for the June winners! Big boots to fill. But if anyone can fill them, Suzy can.
