"Art plays a critical role in the metaverse. The platform offers a unique opportunity for artists to break away from societal conventions and stigmas. It also frees them from traditional constraints, ranging from costs to the very laws of physics. So, it’ a natural venue for art galleries. Like the art they display so beautifully, many metaverse art galleries also tear down expectations by providing an experience that’s out of this world (at least, the physical world)."

"The question of identity / pseudonymity has been linked to Second Life pretty much since the platform from the start; we have complete agency of how we represent ourselves and how much of ourselves we chose to reveal to the world. It is often said that this pseudonymity allows us to more fully express who we’d like to be.

But who are we, really? The person we are at home and among family is not the same as the person we are at work;, and that person is not the same as the person we are when with friends, and so on. Even within our family group, who we are with loved ones – husband / wife, children, parents – can change from moment to moment."
