A system and method for creating a virtual world conferencing experience wherein a first set of real world emissive surfaces and content thereon is replicated on virtual world emissive surfaces where the virtual world emissive surfaces are juxtaposed in a virtual world instance at locations and in orientations that replicate the juxtapositions in the real world arrangement and where the virtual world instance is presented on a second set of real world emissive surfaces at a virtual world workstation where the second set of emissive surfaces are arranged differently than the first set of real world surfaces.

Virtual world method and system for affecting mind state

A system comprising a database storing schedule information associated with different meeting spaces, at least a first threshold display located proximate at least a first meeting space, an employee tracking system, a processor programmed to perform the steps of receiving employee tracking information including locations and identities, determining the relative juxtapositions of employees with respect to the first threshold display, identifying content to be presented on the first threshold display based on identity of a first employee, a distance between the first employee and the display and the schedule information.

Threshold configuration and system for space

A system for use with different space types, each space type including emissive surfaces, each emissive surface controllable to present content within the space, the system comprising a database that includes a separate template for each space type, each template indicating surfaces associated with the space type, relative juxtapositions of the surfaces in the space and content types to be presented in each surface, a processor programmed to allow a user to select a space type, identify an associated space type template, identifying content types for each surface and storing the received content in a session specification for subsequent access.

Template based content preparation system for use with a plurality of space types
