"You
are about to take part in a great adventure. A rift has been discovered
in the fabric of 2D computing. Early reports suggests it leads into
the Multimedium - a third dimension where Multimedia meets Virtual
Reality, a realm of immensely powerful tools and ideas. Can we bring
these back to our world?
You
will board the CyberSpaceShip powered by the fastest 3D graphics
accelerators, equipped with 3D stereoscopic projection, controlled
by the most advanced virtual reality software and peripherals, connected
to the World Wide Web, and interfaced through 6 huge View Ports.
Together we will venture into the Multimedium, navigate the World
Wide Web in 3D, search for the origins of 3D computing, discover
it's relevance and value, and learn how to extend and expand out
capabilities in business, science, and art. Discover the secrets
that create Maximum Impact!"
