Abyss Museum of Ocean Science

From virtualartpedia

The Abyss Museum of Ocean Science celebrated its grand opening on Saturday, November 10, 2007. Created by Second Life artists Rezago Kokorin and Sunn Thunders, the Abyss is an exhibition of the Earth's oceans that combines art, science, and education. The exhibit occupies more than 10,000 square meters both above and below water level in the southwest corner of the Gun sim.

Following the successful summer run of the first Abyss in Blekinge Sculpture Park, Kokorin and Thunders set out to expand the exhibit into a more permanent and realistic ocean setting. The new Abyss features a variety of displays and experiences in a natural setting (both above and below sea level) for visitors to tour at their own pace.[1]

The opening of the Abyss Museum of Ocean Science was selected as Best Educational Event of 2007 by Rik Riel (aka Rik's Picks) of New World Notes.
