First 3D VR Art Gallery Virtual Vancouver
Join The Launch of the First 3D VR Art Gallery in Vancouver
Launched Sep 2013, we were involved in virtual currencies and Bitcoin at Coinfest before we really knew its potential! LJL DECOR – luxury. joy. love. is a Vancouver online art gallery of carefully-curated, fine art, fine craft and commercial art for luxury tiny homes. The brand is a social commentary to the stratospheric prices of famous art auctioned off to the super rich: “When art is an object of luxury, it is merely decor.” Fine art or craft is a relatively stable and long-term investment that appreciates:

LJL DECOR is one of Virtual Vancouver’s first 3D Virtual Galleries on the Curio, 3D browser with Utherverse’s Virtual World Web software for immersive and 3D environments. Supported on both PC and MAC, the graphics are photo-realistic for original art.
As an artist or gallerist, showing art on the internet has limitations as it loses both size and spatial qualities on a 2D flat web. Now with 3D virtual web technology widely available, it’s possible to turn your website into your own 3D virtual gallery with free DIY web tools. Amazon is already a directory of the largest online stores, including independent art galleries. Now this retail giant is entering the 3D virtual gallery space with Amazon Art. It will be a matter of time, virtual art galleries will become the “norm” for selling art online.
In 2020, The Art Party is collaborating with IMPACT Festival and small businesses for virtual charity festivals July 16 to 20 and September 5 weekend. These will involve 3D Virtual World, Twitch TV and Zoom!
Workshops will include breakout rooms on Zoom with workshops, such as yoga, Kirtan, healing, live art demos, vegan cooking shows and more! For our healthy recipes cooking shows on Zoom, we’re looking for and showcasing easy vegan recipes or vegetarian recipes. Our community of changemakers at IMPACT Festival embrace a more plant-based diet, whether vegan meals or vegetarian meals.
3D VR Gallery in the Metaverse
The metaverse is a term that has different meanings depending on the context. In general, it refers to a virtual world that is connected to the internet and allows people to interact with each other in immersive ways. The metaverse is not just for gamers or developers, it will be for everyone. It will enable people to connect, shop, work, play, and learn in new ways that are not possible in the physical world.
There are different ways to access the metaverse, depending on what you mean by that term. The metaverse is not a single app or platform, but rather a network of virtual worlds that are connected to the internet and allow people to interact with each other in immersive ways. Some of the technologies that enable access to the metaverse are:
- Virtual reality (VR): VR is a technology that creates a simulated environment that you can explore and experience using a headset and controllers. VR can transport you to different places and times, or let you create your worlds.
- Augmented reality (AR): AR is a technology that overlays digital information or objects onto your real-world view using a device such as a smartphone, tablet, or glasses. AR can enhance your perception of reality, or let you interact with virtual elements in your surroundings. Some examples of AR platforms that are part of the metaverse are Meta Spark AR Studio, Snapchat Spotlight, and Pokemon Go.
- Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs): BCIs are devices that connect your brain to a computer or machine, allowing you to control it with your thoughts. BCIs can enable direct communication between your mind and the metaverse, or let you access information without using any external devices.
These technologies are not mutually exclusive, and they can work together to create more immersive and interactive experiences in the metaverse. However, they also pose some challenges and risks, such as privacy, security, ethics, regulation, accessibility, and social impact. Therefore, it is important to be aware of these issues and how they affect our future in the metaverse.
