All of which can cause the sufferer to feel, or

17. A second chance to
make sense of a
scattered reality
James Cook, MD MS (also known as Nash
Baldwin on Second Life), is the creator of the Virtual
Hallucinations Project, a space within the Second Life
virtual reality venue, which allow an individual to
experience a setting or environment with the virtual
eyes and ears (examples of possible auditory and
visual hallucinations) of a schizophrenic. The Second
Life building was designed by Doctor Cook based on
the descriptions he was given by two separate patients
with schizophrenia. The project is intended to heighten
awareness pertaining to the disease. According to
Peter M. Yellowlees, M.B.B.S., M.D. and James N.
Cook, M.D., M.S., “A common cause of frustration and
alienation for sufferers of schizophrenia is that their
therapists, family members, and caregivers cannot
really understand their experiences.”
