If you would like to understand the webmaster's thinking about the Loch Ness
mystery then you should visit the Loch Ness Exhibition in Second Life. We have
created a simulation of Loch Ness and part of the Highlands of Scotland in
Second Life. The map is shown below:
The map represents three simulated regions which are, from left to right, Augustus, Urquhart and Inverness City. The estate, of which they are all part, is called Scottish Highlands. The following link is the entrance to the Loch Ness Exhibition.
The exhibition begins with an explanation of the natural history of the loch, explaining why Loch Ness has such a flat bottomed, steep sided profile. It covers how the ending of the ice age affected the appearance of the loch both above and below the surface.
The real business of the exhibition deals with its most famous resident ... Nessie. However, there are no punches pulled in this presentation. Fake photographs are exposed, but along the way I show how the story developed from humble folklore origins into the media-plesiosaur-monster of today. That story, although true, is also fascinating and those who have visited my exhibition acclaim it as a Loch Ness work in its own right. Some interior shots appear below. However, the information on the wallboards is supplemented by additional extensive information in notecards which are obtained by clicking the panels in-world. All of that information can be read at the time or cut and pasted into a word or other word-processing document.

Our Story of Scotland exhibition is located in our simulated Fort
Augustus Abbey and
this hyperlink
takes you to the main entrance. My work on reconstructing the abbey
is very much a work in progress, but it is taking shape and now
comprises the original 19th century abbey buildings, two bastion walls
from the 18th century fort and a more in-character church than at the
real abbey! The church is used for real services in Second Life and is
well supported.
The Story of Scotland exhibition follows very much the concept of what I did in the real abbey in the nineteen nineties. Find out more about about the abbey here as I bought the website when the abbey closed and have tried to maintain it very much in its original state.
The exhibition tells the story of our people from their Mesolithic
arrival, through their Neolithic, Bronze and Iron age tribulations to
the birth of Scotland towards the end of the first millennium. I then
take the history through the exciting medieval kings like Macbeth and
Robert the Bruce and on through the Stuart dynasty to the religious
divisions of the late seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. We continue
with the story through the industrial revolution and up to the new
Scottish Government. Some screenshots are shown below and, as with the
Loch Ness Exhibition, each information panel or artefact can be clicked
to provide a massive amount of additional information.
