RL->+SL+and+SL->RL+Communications

This page is a work-in-process.

At the NPO Tech meeting on June 18 we decided to try to develop a Cookbook to help all NPOs to do different forms of Real Life to Second Life and Second Life to Real Life communications, up to, and including dual RL/SL Events. If you have any additions for this page please contact Don Singleton at donsingleton@cox.net.

Personally I am looking for several things. Is there a way I can:
 * 1) take a streaming capture of what is on my screen, and make it appear on a board in SL,
 * 2) take a camera image of a group of people in RL, along with audio, and make appear on a board in SL, with the audio being available to listen to,
 * 3) have a camera viewing a certain location in SL, and have a live image of it appear on a webpage in RL, and any other techniques used in Joint SL/RL events.

Adalace Jewell has a bunch of scripts at [|Free SL Scripts:]
 * Turn an object into a button to set your parcel music URL [|Set Music Parcel Script]
 * Allow anyone to change the stream by saying in chat the music stream URL (for example http://64.71.145.133:8010) [|Simple Music Stream changer]
 * Load Flickr images on a prim in a slide show [|Flickr Screen for Second Life]
 * Feed CNN top stories into Second Life [|CNN RSS Feed]
 * Basic radio script with commands in chat to change radio stations [|Basic Radio Script]
 * Touch the prim to start or stop the video display set in Land Media: Video [|Basic Video Display script]

I have made contact with a number of people, including and hope to have more suggestions soon.
