Second Life Destinations

Now open at MetaLES, curated by Ux Hax and Romy Nayar, is OpeRaAnxiEty, by JadeYu Fang. Reached via teleport from the landing point, it presents a haunting mix of ideas and images intended to play on our anxieties – albeit at times in the most subtle of ways (make sure you have local sounds enabled when visiting). A misty landscape awaits visitors, across which web-like lines faintly ebb and flow and the air throbs with a steady beat, warping at times into the high-pitched beep of an electrocardiogram. These combine to offer the first play on feelings of discomfort.
