Dowden/42/60/52) will be the in world host a series of salons held at
the CADRE Laboratory for New Media.

Sharon Daniel will be discussing her work at 6.30 Tuesday March 13.

Sharon Daniel teaches classes in digital media theory and practice.
Her research involves collaborations with local and on-line
communities, which exploit information and communications
technologies as new sites for "public art." Daniel's role as an
artist is that of "context provider," - assisting communities,
collecting their stories, soliciting their opinions on politics and
social justice, and building the online archives and interfaces that
make this data available across social, cultural and economic
boundaries. Daniel's work has been exhibited internationally at
museums, festivals including the Corcoran Biennial, the University of
Paris, the Dutch Electronic Arts Festival, Ars Electronica and the
Lincoln Center Festival as well as on the Internet. Her essays have
been published in books and professional journals such as Leonardo
and the Sarai Reader. Daniel has recently presented
"Improbablevoices.net" at SFCamerawork in San Francisco, the
Fundacion Telefonica in Buenos Aires and at the conference "contested
commons" in New Delhi, India. Her current research is supported by
grants from the Daniel Langlois Foundation and the Creative Work Fund.

Ars Virtua is a new media center and gallery located in the synthetic
world of Second Life. It is a new type of space that leverages the
tension between 3-D rendered game space and terrestrial reality,
between simulated and simulation. Ars Virtua is sponsored by the
CADRE Laboratory for New Media.
