Recently, I have noticed a side effect of virtual worlds is really vivid dreaming. It is perhaps an important aspect of the experience that is often overlooked.
I keep having these dreams of the dune buggy I designed for my Avatar "apfeljung" in

that is so convinceing that I wake up believing I'm having an accident. I even visit my virtual house in my dreams. This cycle is often reversed in that my modeling is inspired from my dreams, which to me, demonstrates that this medium is allowing me to share my dream space with others by adding "a little electricity."
I miss that environment. It was quite beautiful.
