* Implementation (Scott)
There are 4 themes: Archaeology, Senses of Place, Ancient Ecosystems, and Life Histories.
Archaeology: The first task is to find a piece of fired clay. Fired clay (near fire) leads to Goddess Figurine (pic on anobject). Finding the Goddess figurine leads to flake points (pic). Flake points lead to beads. After getting beads the hunter finishes the course.
Senses of Place: The first task is to find the "forked path." After the forked path (bewteen the mounds) the next space is a place where the dead are buried. This is within building 3, inside the BACH tent. The next task is to finda place along the river that would represent the importance of the river Charshamba. Finally, hunters will be challenged to find an ancient street. This will be a space between buildings. End of course.
Ancient Ecosystems: The first task here is to find where the Neolithic people grew their cerealtype crops. (Noah help me place some) The next would be to find a d]]> Wed, 21 Nov 2007 17:08:14 +0000 mod http://okapiisland.pbwiki.com/Okapi+Island+Current+Plans email.hidden@example.com (Ruth Tringham) Ruth Tringham edited Okapi Island Current Plans Signage

Join us for Remixing Catalhoyuk Day, a public program sponsored by the Berkeley Archaeologists at Catalhoyuk and the OKAPI program. Visit OKAPI Island in Second Life (using slurl provided above) and explore the past and present of Catalhoyuk, a 9000-year-old village located in present-day Turkey. OKAPI Island features virtual reconstructions of excavation areas and multimedia exhibits of research data. The Island was constructed by a team of undegraduate research apprentices during the Spring and Fall 2007 semester. The Remixing Catalhoyuk program includes lectures, guided tours, games, and much more. Mark your calendars!

Daniel Wei is an undergraduate Junior majoring in EECS. He has taken a couple of Anthropology classes enjoys working on this project because of its blend of both subjects. This is his third semester working on recreating Catalhoyuk in Second Life. This semester, he plans to continue to script a portable video player, re-terrain the landscape of the site, and look into ways to update the current visitor center building.

Notes from 11/7 Meeting
Noah: Installed Metalab whiteboard for graffiti cube. Implementing video walk. New announcement board using rss feed from okapiisland.pbwiki.com. Created public sandbox area.
Daniel: Working on a script that can play local audio, embed streaming audio onto object. The River is coming. Working on video walk. Moving the museum.
Casondra: Film about leopards spots. Ready to help with video. Has thursdays and fridays free.
Laurie: Working on signs. Adding teleporting capabilities. Problem with uploading. Maybe file size too big?
Scott: Just completed google earth zoom video to orient people. Have QTVR coordinates. How to import QTVR? Lets try it. Next week, come up with a list of ideas for scavenger hunt and others can help implement. Need to figure out how to do private messages.

11/5 Updates (Noah):
I created a sandbox area for public to build their own reconstructions. I also found a great tool (metalab interactive whiteboard) for the grafitti wall (or cube). Check it out! You can drag your own content from your own inventory. I also think this tool will be great for featuring collections of content. I put some of stanford's image collections in the ones near the South area reconstructions. When ready, I'll put these inside the reconstructed houses. Feel free to make copies of the white board and use as you see fit.

9.26.07 Plans and Agenda
9.19.07. We are currently working on the following tasks, write your names in the tasks that would interest you:
Two smaller signs. Possibly shaped like and arrow! One saying Reconstruction Area and the other saying "BACH Area"
There should be a path leading to Reconstruction Area and BACh Area. At some some point, a fork perhaps, theses two signs should appear again pointing in respective directions. These signs will give a notecard explaining what each place is. Person can choose, from there, where to go
should have have a 'teleport back to museum' so person will always have option to go back.
Free boxe along paths?
Lizzy will find captions to use.
