Cica Ghost’s ‘Forest’: A monochrome wilderness
Cica Ghost’s art installations never disappoint me, and her latest creation, Forest, is no exception. While it doesn’t directly refer to the upcoming “spooky season,” it certainly evokes the kind of eerie atmosphere that makes you think of it. Forest is a monochrome wonderland. As the name suggests, the installation centers around a forest,…
I am Second Life
Recently, a tweet by VCSL (Tori Greyson) caught my attention. VCSL was seeking individuals to pose for a portrait for their upcoming exhibition, “I am Second Life.” What piqued my interest even more was that the exhibition would be showcased not only in the virtual world of Second Life but also in the physical world….

The Valley of the Pondering Eggs
Yes, you read that right: Pondering Eggs. In a valley. That is where I spent my Monday night and it was lovely! The Valley of the Pondering Eggs (A) is an installation by Num Bing-Howlett and Clifton Howlett, the creators of the Empire of Dreaming Books a while ago. The Pondering Eggs are huge, well…eggs….
Underwhere
“Art for arts sake, no real purpose beyond that” says Hera (zee9.resident) in her notecard, telling about Underwhere. Hera’s latest sim, or art installation as you will, is very different than her previous cities. If you are expecting a new Drune or something Cyberpunk, you will be disappointed. If you want to be amazed and…
Stömol backstage – my life as a Second Life actress
In my last blogpost of 2019, I briefly mentioned Stömol, the feature-length machinima by my dear friend Huckleberry Hax, and that I have played a part (or two…three…) in this Sci-fi movie. People often ask me ‘Cait, what is it like? Being an actress in Second Life?’ Well, to be honest. Nobody has ever asked…
