One World Wallet and the Virtual Art Wall

Anybody looking for inspiration for how to use virtual spaces in real life could do worse than look in a oneworldwallet.

Artist Jon Coffelt is creating a virtual art piece in the gallery Ten Cubed. This virtual installation is then photographed and becomes the first in a series of art works made for oneworldwallet.

One world wallet in turn is a social network that people sign up to and receive a one world wallet. They then tell their stories around the wallet - where they take it, how people react to an art work wallet, and the artist creates more art works from their stories, photographs, videos, blogs.
