What follows is a collection of images and media to demonstrate the work of Vidal Tripsa in the world of Second Life. Much of her recent work has been for the benefit of Extropia, a digital city-state on the Grid, hence the portfolio's title.
For more information, see Vidal's homepage.

The Central Nexus
The "Nexus" was the first building to arrive in Extropia and still undergoes minor changes as it evolves as the region's administrative and cultural hub.

The Secret Goldfish
This retrospective cinema first found life on the Grid's mainland, and now resides in Extropia Core, set to showcase choice films and archive footage with a retrofuturistic spin. Its design is heavily influenced by real-world art deco cinemas.

The Diversionarium
A current work in progress, my responsibility in redesigning this legacy venue from its mainland incarnation led to this set-back stack of gaming balconies, currently in the process of being furnished to make this a comfortable and lively hotspot in the region.

Nebula
My personal corner of Extropia is my shop, selling furnishings and prefabricated buildings the likes of which may be seen on the next page. Its design is intentionally less symmetrical than my communal projects in Extropia, and its look more radical.
