A friend of mine at CASA does research into Superscape modelling of Town

Planning recommendations over the web.  His favourite ploy is getting

council members and Architects to navigate their way through their own

designs using the 'wheelchair' avatar.  Also, he plans to let citizens

adjust plans using VR and then vote online on what they really think are

sensitive improvements to their own environment.


He's Andy Smith at CASA - http://www.casa.ucl.ac.uk/
