This is a beautiful neutral house. It really appeals to my senses. I don't know if it was my luck, but it rained the day I was there, so I got experience the strange reality of walking in the rain without getting wet. When I couldn't open the doors, I imagined using the house space as a sort of labyrinth or meditation exercise with stations. The windows allowed good sun and shadows in creating a realistic and "breathing" space, not just shapes where moving shapes can go. The various areas had lots of space to consider different uses. As I went upstairs to the small group area, I wondered what it would be like to have an AA meeting or Alanon group there. It's hard to know what intimacy happens in these virtual spaces (this is my first time in such a reality). The fact remains, the space felt safe and open to possibilities, many at one time. I was alone inside so I couldn't test the interaction aspect. The created physical space feels pretty intimate and I wouldn't want more than a few small groups inside. While the avatar was fun to make dance and sit, etc. I found I d idn't really care. If what my eyes saw was appealing, the avatar could stand on her head for all that matters. I had difficulty keeping my perspective behind my avatar and at points I was looking at the wall when the avatar was on the other side. I'm sure this is user error, but something to set that would be helpful.
