The official prize ceremony, discussions and a party for the first annual Second Life Architecture Awards.The jury deliberated over the 126 submissions before a live audience at the Architekturforum Linz, while being simultaneously streamed into Second Life. Four outstanding projects, that took advantage of both the artistic and technical possibilities afforded by Second Life were selected as finalists.

· Berliner Tanja Meyle's "Living Cloud", is a semitransparent cloud that travels with her and provides privacy and sanctuary, a consistent need for an avatar in Second Life.
· From San Francisco, DC Spensley creates "Full Immersion Hyperformalism" an usual and innovative user interface, constructed to allow an avatar to view a fine art exhibition.
· Adam Nash's "17 Unsung Songs" allows avatars to be physically immersed in interactive sound scapes, constructions that create a tension within their Australian parkland environment.
· Conceptually and technically innovative is "White Noise", a work from Vienna based Max Moswitzer.
