With 85,000 gallery information cards served from "The Galleries of Second Life" kiosks in the past 18 months, Sasun Steinbeck is one of the best-known supporters of the art community in Second Life. In a virtual world that gets most of the media attention from sex scandals and business, art has been a steadily growing community, with many accomplishments and victories. Steinbeck is one of the longest-running and invaluable catalysts spurring the development of the art world.

Steinbeck's work stands at the foundation of the networking that takes place throughout the various art groups. She offers an organizational and social infrastructure through her gallery information kiosks, now listing some 320 art places throughout Second Life. In addition, the personal attention she offers to any blooming artist or gallery owner who seeks her advice is quite remarkable, especially as Sasun Steinbeck is an artist herself. She has chosen to focus her energy on constantly developing her spectacular morphing sculpture, which is a unique blend of scripting, elegant prim modeling, color, and vision for something literally out of this world.
"The future is so bright for art in SL, we are just at the BEGINNING, all of us", explains the artist. The bright future Steinbeck imagines is one where artists take advantage of the 3D capabilities and scripting potential of Second Life to create things that are impossible in real life.
In fact, Sasun Steinbeck sees herself as a scripter first and foremost. Her gallery kiosks were among the first systems for networked information givers that also provided updates to the users every few days. This allowed her to keep adding to the gallery list, while providing those who hosted the kiosk on their land with up-to-date roster for anyone who wanted to explore art in Second Life.
