Art in Second Life

Interesting article about a new art-magazine (in print form) that illustrates / catalogues art being produced in Second Life. Apparently there are already 200 galleries with Second Life. The publisher of this magazine also argues that every avatar, as a creative, unique and novel expression of the person creating that avatar, can be seen as art. Apparently SL art is already being sold (IBM is named as one of the biggest buyers), despite the infinite reproducability of digital art - with the lack of scarcity prices will not increase.
