But the contest was also about how people relate to their avatar in a shared virtual space- as Fei put it in her opening remarks, 'between realities that penetrate dreams and dreams that project onto realities between visible and invisible, between you and me.' Or to put it another way: How do you feel when your avatar is naked, and people are looking at it, and what does that say about you?ĭuring the question and answer period for the contestants, for example, Storm Vayandar (above) told us she consciously chose a curvier female avatar shape, than is common in Second Life.

On the surface, 'Naked Idol' was pretty much like 'American Idol', except instead of singing old pop songs, people showed off new digital skins. Last weekend about a dozen nude avatars competed in RMB City, the ongoing art project of my friend Cao Fei (known as China Tracy in SL).
