Disney, Second Life and Erotica

Second Life’s once-officially embedded journalist, Wagner James Au reports (Link 1, Link 2) on the use of the virtual space to provide design feedback to filmmakers. In this case, the tools were apparently used to prototype a character used in the Disney film “Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy”. From his comments:

…you have through Fizik’s client Disney another international corporation indirectly financing a Second Life project. But even beyond that, you have that giant media company using SL to create assets for use in their own IP.

In the meantime, you have tiny, unknown individuals using SL to create assets using Disney’s IP for their own use. Hmmmm. Is the opposite of Avalon an island called Erotica?
