VRG #2: THE CHANGING FACE OF THE CYBERSPACE INDUSTRY

The recent changes at VPL, the best known virtual reality
company, have radically altered the face of the emerging
cyberspace industry.  At VRG's second meeting we will discuss
what these changes will mean and how they will impact the
development of virtual reality technology.

VRG's second meeting will feature open discussions with:

        MICHAEL EVANS (formerly of VPL, Inc.)

        BEN DELANY and SHERRY EPLEY (Cyberedge Journal)

In addition, virtual reality systems will be available for
experimentation following the discussion (more details to
follow.)

The second meeting of VRG will be held in San Francisco at
Tarzan Studios, on January 19 at 7:00 PM.  A $5 donation
(sliding scale) will be requested at the door to help cover
expenses for refreshments, chair rental, etc.  Tarzan Studios
is located south of Market Street at 410 Townsend between 3rd
and 4th.



UPCOMING VRG EVENTS:

The topic of the third meeting of VRG will be "Computer
Graphics and Virtual Reality." The third meeting will include a
videophone link-up with the Southern California VR SIG, where
Brett Leonard (Lawnmower Man) will be speaking, and other
speakers to be announced.  The third VRG meeting will be held
on February 18th.   The tentative location for the third VRG
meeting is the Exploratorium located at the Palace of Fine Arts
in San Francisco.  We'll keep you posted as further details
become available.

The topic for the fourth VRG meeting, to be held in March, will
be "Homebrew Virtual Reality."
