Red Shoes at MIC
“Red Shoes” is an impressive art exhibition on MIC – Imagin@rium, featuring……red shoes and is made possible in collaboration with Il Murgutta Art Gallery. As the information notecard says : ‘Elaborating on the idea of the Mexican artist Elina Chauvet, who in 2009 exhibited his first installation “Zapatos Rojos” in Ciudad Juárez, which later became…
The Machine
This afternoon I managed to get completely lost….yeah, I am just terrible when it comes to mazes and staircases, but eventually I made it! I visited ‘The Machine’, an art installation by Lilia Artis and Moeuhane Sandalwood on LEA. It is interactive, and I am not going to give away the clues – except that…
Invisible People – by Rebeca Bashly
The brandnew art installation by Rebeca Bashly, called Invisible People, has been featured on many blogs and in Flickr already and that is not without reason! I always enjoy Rebeca’s work very much and could not wait to tp to ‘La Citta Perduta’ in which this work is displayed. Invisible People is a story, presented…
RiTai Dreamland
RiTai Dreamland is one of those places I will have to re-visit over and over again, because there are so many hidden treasures and spots to explore! It may seem as ‘just another’ tropical island, and yes….there is sand, sea and palmtrees but…it is also the home of Bryn Oh’s shop of Curiosities and Oddities!…
Rebeca Bashly’s Colour Key
Colour Key, by Rebeca Bashly, is a full sim art installation on LEA and I find it not easy to write something about it…..It is amazingly built, and I adore the windlight setting that is used for this immense structure – although a bit dark! There is not much information on the installation, which leaves…
The Cosmogony of Rafts and other improbable floating beings
For the third time in a month I have started a week with a Monday morning appointment in the hospital, for yet another treatment on my foot. I hoped this morning they would just look and say it’s all healed, but alas…some cutting and fiddling was needed (but now really last time!) and so I…
Burn2 – now open!
Last night Burn2 – Cargo Cult opened to the public and if you love art, desert and burning sun…..you should go and let yourself get amazed by the creativity on display! Burn2 will be open till 27 october, so that gives plenty of time! For information and schedules on events and parties on the official…
Arithmos, numbers from Zero to Infinity
A favourite destination for me in the weekends, while having breakfast and liters of coffee, is the cluster of LEA sims and then hop around from one sim to the other, exploring and hoping to find something that excites me. This morning I ended up at LEA17, in an overwhelming installation by Giovanna Cerise: Arithmos….
Burn2 – Cargo Cult – A preview
This weekend Burn2, with the theme: Cargo Cult, will open its 6 sims, for everyone! I had the privilege to have preview access at the press day, so I spent most of this my evening running around in the desert….taking pictures and enjoying the many art installations. Every year I look forward to Burn2 and…

Romy Nayar’s Overto Omonto
In the past years I have enjoyed several art installations by Romy Nayar and I was happy to learn she has a new one, on MetaLES: Overto Omonto. Overto Omonto is an interactive art installation, sim wide. It is the story of a city where people became isolated and stopped communicating with each-other and it…
The Beguiled, mainland at its best
Last night I saw some pictures on Flickr, uploaded by Torley, from a lovely colourful garden and naturally I got curious and had to check it out! The Beguiled, is a full mainland (!) sim, dedicated to providing a lush and wonderful environment for all to explore, use for photoshoots and hang out. There is…
World’s End Garden – The End…
Ever since I discovered I enjoyed taking pictures in Second Life and started my first exploring trips, there was the gorgeous sim of Lucia Genesis : World’s End Garden. Over the years I have visited it often, ‘used’ it as background for artistic poses and I am not the only one doing so. This morning…
Pangloss. Epic!
If you do not like pink grass, green flamingo’s and giant flying turtles and fish…you should not go to Pangloss! I love all of the above and had a great time exploring this epic, weird, sim! Pink allover, strange settings…surreal and amazing. I will let the pics speak for themselves and yeah, you should go…
Romeo and Juliet
Last night I went to see the play Romeo and Juliet, performed by The Basilique Performing Arts Company, in the Playhouse on the Basilique sim. I had no real idea on what to expect, of course I know the story, and how this was supposed to be in performed in Second Life. I can only…
