Boxing Day and I woke up this morning , exploring an amazing art installation on MiC – Kuru Kuru World by Mikati Slade. As the short decription says: a future Pop Art Exhibition. It is bright, it is pink, it moves and it is absolutely worth a visit! I have used the advised windlightsetting [TOR]…

Bubbles in Wonderland
There are many, many places in Second Life that are dedicated to or inspired by Alice in Wonderland. I have been to a lot and not all are impressive. However, today I found one that is worth a visit, because it is fun, surprising and a clever build! I enjoyed exploring Bubbles in Wonderland a…
Enjoy Life..this is not a rehearsal
The title of this post is not just some quote I found on the internet, but the title of the art installation by Shellina Winkler on the MetaLES sim! I went to visit this tonight and can recommend it! It moves, vibrates and can make you dizzy at some point, but once you are used…
Originalia
A couple of months ago I blogged about Originalia – The Docks, and how much I enjoyed that cartoonish envirnment. In the mood for a bit of cartoonworld, I decided to go back today. Thankfully, the place still exists, including the lovely pink and purple docks! To my delight I also found out they have…
RazorZ’s Forest “The Walkthrough”
If you are into a walk in the forest and expect nice green trees, mushrooms and fairies….RazorZ’ Forest may be a shock! It is, as described, a digital jungle. Filled with psychedelic creations, moving trees, rolling balls and very colourful. I found it brilliant and loved exploring this simwide art installation on one of the…
MachinimUWA IV: Art of the Artist
In June the UWA (University of Western Australia) kicked off their 4th Art of the Artist event. Machinima artists from all over the world sent in their works and the result is a list of 81 (!!) machinima’s, produced by SL’s most creative people. The artists go their inspiration from the many art projects, hosted…
Gretchen and Teddy
Gretchen and Teddy is another masterpiece by Bryn Oh. I admire his work and everytime I see a new art installation by Bryn I am simply amazed. The atmosphere, the textures..and in this case the combination of poetry and prims. This is the story of Gretchen and Teddy, and I recommend to go see it…
Tyrehl Byk’s “Catharsis”
It does not happen often that I am totally immersed and off the real world by something that happens in Second Life. In fact, I think it never happened to me. Till last night….. I went to see Tyrehl Byk’s “Catharsis” on LEA and had a most wonderful experience, completely unexpected as I thought I…
LEA 2 – The Path
Nothing better than ending a long week of work with some delightful art in Second Life and thus starting the weekend with a smile! Friday night I visited two exhibits on the LEA2 sim (LEA = Linden Endowment of Arts) and I recommend those to all of you! I am for sure going back, there…
Light and Gravity
Thursday evening and I felt kind of restless. For no reason, just one of those days. After having shopped at Leezu (I blame Venus, she mentioned the L-word in one of her comments…) I was all dressed up and had nowhere to go. Le Sigh.. I started looking for a nice place to make some…
Shades of Gray – by Chic Aeon
A wonderful SL machinima, by Chic Aeon, to match my mood.. A visual poem featuring work by 3D artists at the University of Western Australia Open Art Challenge.
Burn 2: Dance!
Ah, finally I found some parties to dance on Burn 2! First I went to the mainstage on Center Camp for DJ Gemini Enfield. I brought my (4 year old) firesticks and had put on some golden disco-outfit and had a great time. Good tunes and nice crowd! After Gemini’s show I wandered around a…
Bryn Oh’s Family Unit
Everytime I see an announcement of a new installation by Bryn Oh, I can’t wait to go and see. He is one of my favourite SL Artists and never fails to impress. I think it is the general style and the ambiance I love so much in his works. The latest installation, Bryn Oh’s Family…
The Catalan Institute of Nanotechnology
This weekend, in between sleeping and feeling awful due to a nasty flu I must have picked up in the UK, I visited the Catalan Institute of Nanotechnology. Heh! Sounds very impressive and intelligent, doesn’t it? This place is not at all what I expected, I was delighted to see what they did with the…
Alice: Madness Returns
‘Ow well..another Alice in Wonderland inspired sim’, that’s what I thougth when I decided to visit: Alice, Madness Returns. But to be honest, this is a different kind! Very much Burton-like and wicked. Not the sweetness of other sims about this little girl in her blue dress and no nice cat either! It’s a bizarre…
Daytime Dreams
In this wonderful place called Daytime Dreams, I really had the feeling of walking around in a dream. A mad one too! On the surface you walk around on a checkerboard floor, filled with gigantic mushrooms and teapots. Plants with soft leaves have poses to meditate on and if you look carefully, you will find…
