It has been a while since our first online symposium held entirely in Second Life, the August 2007 Symposium on Creativity (so much time that we held another Symposium just last week).

But we would be remiss if you continued to forgot about sharing the excellent 5 minute even video shot and edited by the talented Stella Costello, one of the NMC Virtual Worlds builders and a widely recognized artist in the Second Life circles available here via YouTube and below as a Quicktime video from the NMC web site.
