3. Name of 3D artist who built a small island and lives in Chelsea, New York?

I am not sure of who you are thinking of. But if you looking for an artist whose work is very material specific look at Christo and Jeanne Claude's work. EDIT, This is still not the artist you are looking for, but they might be someone else for you to look into. In 2005 the Whitney Museum created a sculpture planned by Robert Smithson before he died in a plane crash. The sculpture was a floating island that was towed in a loop around Manhattan by a tug boat. So it fits the island part, but not the dress thing, plus he has been dead for 34 years.

13. What is the easiest language to start learning 3D programming with?

Assuming you're on a Windows PC, I would highly recommend C#, because you won't have to worry about so much that you need to worry about with C++, and the syntax is similar enough that the transition isn't too bad. The caveat with C# is that you should also go to http://creators.xna.com and download the Microsoft XNA Game Studio, which takes a lot of the frustration away from game development and lets you focus on the games themselves (or you can use it as a sandbox for 3D development). Yet another benefit is that that site contains tons of video tutorials as well as written ones. Good luck!

Rigging is the process of creating a custom sized skeleton for your characters purportions, this would pertain to(2) bipedal for human type characters, (4)quadraped for cats dogs horses or four legged animals, (8)octopeds for eight legged freaks and the like. Skinning is the process of attaching your characters mesh to the rigg you have created so that when the rigg moves or you move the rigg via inverse kinmatics, the skin (aka mesh) will move with the rigg(aka bones) to create character animation.
