The Why
“The world is full of magic things, patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper.” W.B. Yeats
The Irish Shebeen was designed to give people a warm welcome to the metaverse. Gather without purpose, for the sheer sense of enjoyment, relaxation, connection. The Irish Pub is the ideal way to offer budding artists, musicians, poets and writers a home in what may otherwise seem daunting for newcomers to the metaverse. The Irish pub is a symbol, a scene, a state of mind, a place to mingle and a place to share a love for the arts.
The Who
“Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.” W.B. Yeats
The people that will use the Irish pub are artists, musicians, clubs, friends and families that want to gather in a comfortable setting to showcase their work and discuss the latest things happening around the virtual world. We are creating spaces that facilitate connecting with others, areas that allow groups to discuss their ideas. The spaces provide a warm welcome for everyone who enters. Events include but are not limited to: Open mic poetry, Acoustic music sessions, Spoken word nights and literature festivals.
The What
“Being Irish, he had an abiding sense of tragedy, which sustained him through temporary periods of joy.” W.B. Yeats
Maintaining a homely feel of a traditional Irish pub is crucial to keeping the essence of the pub. The aim would be to provide a casual, friendly, hearty atmosphere throughout each space. It needs to mimic the traditional charm with symbols, low lighting, chatter in the background. Old Irish pubs are full of nooks and crannies, often housing antiques and memorabilia. The atmosphere should inspire conversation and encourage participation.
