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…

Burn 2 – Rites of Passage


Yay! The Annual Burn 2 Event has started yesterday! I always enjoy the Burn 2 – formerly known as Burning Man 2 – as it has wonderful displays of Hot Art, cool parties with dj’s and it is a nice place to meet people. The location is, as ever, in a hot burning desert –…

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…

Hope


Hope is the dream of a soul awake ~ (French Proverb) And Hope is also a very cool place in Second Life, which I visited Wednesday! It’s  filled with many surprises, wonderful and funny pieces of art and plenty of romantic spots with intan couple dances. I wandered around a bit, got caught in the…

Tableau – part two


I have blogged about Tableau before, but it is just such a funny and amazing place with lots of different things to discover  that I keep going back there. Not only for the cute stuff you can find in the many stores (I like Paper Couture and the Nylon Outfitters a lot!), but also for…

HuMaNoid


After having seen pictures made on this sim on several blogs and Flickr…I had to go see this wonderful, photogenic (M)place myself! HuMaNoid – Wendy’s dream (by Wendy Xeno) is perfect for playing with the realtime shadows and trying out several windlightsettings. The ground level is amazing enough, but make sure you try all the…

Ice Sculptures by Rebeca Bashly (updated)


Only in Second Life…can you visit an art gallery filled with Ice Sculptures while it is tropical outside :). I visited Rebeca Bashly’s exhibit in UTSA (M), a permanent collection of lovely ice sculptures.  Cool, in all ways…and specially nice when in midnight! (PS: yes, I editted this post. Rebeca told me it is not…

-ajisai-


On one of my travels, I tried out an old LM to [Leroy] – that amazing snowy sim with the pirate ship – and discovered they have a temporary exhibition up in the sky called – ajisai –. You can reach it by using the teleporter on the landing point of the pirate ship. This…

I <3 Diversity


One of the things I loved most when exploring SL8B and attending the events, was the diversity in Avatars and appearances…Furries, tinies, animals, robots, aliens and humans united in one virtual world!

SL8B – Bear Island!


A must see and visit: Bear Island! It’s like a real museum , with  all Linden Bears  up for display, and many for sale for 0 L$ for collectors!  I always have a weak spot for the cute Mole Bears, too sweet looking :).  

SL8B – Main stage last night


Last night I was scheduled as volunteer (Greeter) at the Main stage, my first official shift – w00t! I have been to a lot of performances already and enjoyed all of them on the various stages, different styles and music, but what I saw on the Main stage last night was a new one for…
