As a result of the successful 2006 Fall Health Fair, Dr. John Anderton, through CDC avatar, Hygeia Philo, was interviewed by the social marketing expert Nedra Kline Weinreich, as part of her blog series Spare Change. This image depicted the interview, between the two avatars, which took place within the virtual Second Life environment. This was the fourth design stage of the avatar, Ms. Philo. The first CDC Health Fair took place inside Second Life in October 2006, where Hygeia was again outfitted with a more corporate look, more realistic facial features and hair. See PHIL 10002, 10005, 10007, 10008, 10009, 10011, 10013, 10014, 10015, and 10016 for additional images of Ms. Philo. Dr. John Anderton designed the initial CDC space, using in-world tools, creating hyperlinks to CDC websites, including the MMWR, CDC.gov homepage, CDC podcasts and the Public Health Image Library, PHIL. |
