Thoughtcrime in Second Life An interactive and competitive game in which participants role- play as characters from the novel. Played in a virtual world that replicates key locations from the novel, the game brings the totalitarian regime of Big Brother to life. Players are pitted against each other in a subtle struggle for survival that parallels the plot of A virtual museum and classroom space where students and teachers can examine 1984 within broader historical, political, and contemporary contexts. The museum will contain a range of media and materials, including streaming video, audio, and three- dimensional displays, all intended to illuminate the central concerns of the novel, its author, and its continuing influence on modern thought.
