created MUVE (multiuser virtual environments) to create a virtual life such as
Second Life. In this virtual world, users (or Slifers) can simulate all human behavior
and see if they can use their brain skills independently with their body ones. He can use his avatar to create another
personality and imitate human behavior and life. Avatar can have other job than
the user's real one, another appearance, another shape and another body skins,
etc…
By being
connected with other users he can have another role in the virtual society by
his choice. He can be a musician in the morning, a lawyer in the afternoon, and
a sexy woman in the evening.
So, Second Life allows user to be a digital
actor that can imitate human body and change his role does not consist in
interpreting a role in a fiction nor to play to amuse simply, but to feign its
life, its behavior and its feelings and sensations to various situations.
Avatar in Second Life, can walk, moving, flying, getting married, making sex,
building, buying and paying, selling products, laughing, make gestures, etc.
The presence in the virtual environment makes
avatars more real than the reality, because they are allowed to use all their
imagination to create their own business without having problems with real
problems like the ability to travel and to move. A wheel chair man can be rich
with his mind in this virtual world, simply by imagination of his virtual
products by simply clicking on the mouse and taping on his keyboard or if he
can't he can just talk in voice chat to manage his enterprise.
