I’m working on a virtual museum project these days, and one question that often comes up is “What is the most fun thing we could let visitors do here that they can’t do in the real world?” After all, most of our ideas don’t require a virtual landscape; any museum could commission Kid Rock’s tour of the galleries. So why do it?
