Milan, Italy -- The virtual world
social network Koinup is delighted to announce the release of "3D
Wallpapers", the 1st mobile application, available exclusively on
the Nokia Ovi Store, that brings the avatar art collections of
Koinup directly to all Nokia devices.
Available in the "recommended by Nokia" section of the Ovi
Store, The 3D Wallpapers app is the 1st mobile application entirely
dedicated to "avatar art" (virtual worlds screenshots, 3d art and
virtual photography). The app allows customers to download on their
Nokia devices more than 300 wallpapers, picked by the Koinup staff
among the many thousands of images published on www.koinup.com
The 3D Wallpapers users will have the chance to browse selected
collections of avatar artworks, created by 3D artists, and hundreds
of amazing videogames and virtual worlds screenshots.
The 3D Wallpapers purpose is to raise awareness over a new
generation of artists that use 3D and virtual worlds as their own
canvas. "Virtual worlds influence the way we perceive reality, by
changing our aesthetic taste" says Edoardo Turelli, Koinup
co-founder and CTO.
The incredible success of "Avatar", directed by James Cameron,
shows that virtuality is not more perceived as a way to escape
reality, but more as a canvas to create incredible environments or
to express the human natural inclination to art and creativity. As
stated by Wagner James Au, the author of "The Making of Second Life
(HarperCollins): "Avatars have been a crucial part of online
identity for years. As all culture becomes digitized, it's only
inevitable that the avatar itself becomes a new canvas for artistic
expression".
3D Wallpapers goal is bring "avatar art" to the masses, by
partnering with Nokia Ovi Store . "We chose to launch the 3D
Wallpapers on Ovi Store because Nokia users are traditionally
interested in mobile contents as wallpapers and artistic contents"
says Pierluigi Casolari, Koinup co-founder and CEO.
