Join us at 2pm SLT today, Monday 20th March, for the new episode of Designing Worlds at our studio in Garden of Dreams, when we’ll be returning to the fascinating Second Life Museum of Nuclear Warfare for a Second visit.

You can see the earlier visit here. In today’s episode, we join the Director and Curator of the Museum, OtakuSenpai Button to take a look at how different nations have tackled the idea of civil defence against the dangers of nuclear warfare, and memorials at the Museum to the results of nuclear accidents. We conclude with a deeply moving display of drawings created by children who survived the horrors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

It’s a fascinating show – both in terms of the content Otaku has gathered, and also in terms of demonstrating how Second Life can be used for a learning experience.
