Every now and then Alles Klaar, a friend I have known for all of my Second Life and a very talented Photographer/Artist, asks me to pose with her for some pics. Of course I am always happy to hop on one of her pose stands, as the endresult of her shoots are never a disappointment…

Romeo + Juliet 2.0
I guess I am back! Was I gone? Not really, but the past week and a half (and maybe, in hindsight a bit before that already) I have been miserable and dealing with an ear-, throat- and sinus infection of (for me, not used to much..) epic proportions. I got antibiotics, painkillers and nose-spray and…
The Timewalkers
The Timewalkers by Solkide Auer on LEA15 is quite epic! It is so huge and colourful, and it moves and changes….hard to explain in a blogpost and it was also not easy to make pictures that give a good impression! I therefore keep this post short and just say: go see it and take the…
The closure of Mad City
Mad City, home of MadPea Productions, startpoint of so many awesome hunts – which I enjoyed so much, in fact…they were the only ‘hunts’ I did in SL , just because of their storylines and not even for the goodies – is closing per 31th May. The reason makes sense, as QueenPea and CEO/founder of…
Ghosts of the Internet
It does not happen often that I have to leave Second Life and enter a different virtual world, in order to complete a blogpost on an art installation, but “Ghosts of the Internet” by Glyph Graves made me do it! Ghosts of the Internet is located on the LEA21 sim in Second Life as well…
The Golden Age of Russian Avant Garde
Yesterday I visited LEA8, and initially I thought – upon landing looking at the land information – I landed in ‘WE’ by Eupalinos Uganjin. Upon walking about I noticed the names of the parcels changed and when I saw work of Bryn Oh and Sorror Nishi…I knew I needed to do some more research on…
Lacrimosa, in stone
For some reason, Lacrimosa from Mozarts Requiem – my all time favourite part of the Requiem, has played an important part in my Second Life this year and seems to become a theme. I cannot get enough of this piece and often play it while exploring or photoshopping. Of course, I was delighted to see…
H220 – ‘Never run in the rain with your socks on’
In between parties on Saturday and of course exploring and taking pics on the 11 sims of the Fantasy Faire…I took the time today to explore a brand new destination, opened 3 May: H220. A watery, rainy sim created by Squonk Levenque and Miuccia Klaar, who also made the wonderful 2304 Rain which I enjoyed…
Spanish Wells, for art and sports
One of the sports, aside from my years of katanafighting, in SL that I really enjoy doing is surfing. It’s fun, it looks great and important: it’s not that difficult. On most surf-beaches you can also get a free surfboard to use, so it’s really something everyone can try. When I read Ziki‘s and Inara‘s…
Please allow me …
…to introduce myself I’m a man of wealth and taste I’ve been around for a long, long years Stole many a man’s soul and faith And I was ’round when Jesus Christ Had his moment of doubt and pain Made damn sure that Pilate Washed his hands and sealed his fate Pleased to meet you…

The {Lost} Garden Of Sundarya Lahari By Xineohp Guisse
When randomly teleporting around, I ended up in The {Lost} Garden Of Sundarya Lahari By Xineohp Guisse, on LEA13. I explore a lot and often, well..actually it is how I spend most of my SL time. I do not blog about all places I visit, sometimes I just travel around without making pictures and other…
3D Fractals by Mac Kanamishi
Today I was into some art and so I visited the new installation ‘3D Fractals’ by Mac Kanashimi, curated by SperimentArt and Tanalois Art. I have blogged about Mac’s previous installation “Dragon Curves” and enjoyed that a lot, so I was curious about this! I didn’t get disappointed! 3D Fractals is not as huge as…
