Not quite the cheerful post title ever is it? It is the title of a new art installation at MetaLes, by Selavy Oh, so excuse me for the sombre headline!

Inked
‘Inked’ is a photo exhibition by Elizabeth Nantes, in Art Gallery Dathuil. It opened last night and while I usually not particularly like photo’s on display in Second Life (I prefer to enjoy them on Flickr, where I can see them in high resolution and on a big screen) ‘Inked’ is certainly worth a visit.
SL13B – The Automaton and Dutchie
Yesterday at Noon SLT, the doors to the 17 sims of SL13B were opened to all and so the exploring can begin. I’ve blogged about three mainstages yesterday, and today I finally had the time to explore the fourth DJ Stage: The Automaton. A full sim build by the ever so talented steampunk artist and…
Arachnid by Cica Ghost
Over the years I have blogged so many of Cica Ghost’s installations, she is one of SL’s most productive artists, and her artwork never bores and always impresses me. Today I wen to explore her current “Arachnid“ which features, oh surprise, spiders! Big ones. Animated and moving ones. Oh and did I say they are…
Can you use some positive vibes?
Surely you can? Who doesn’t ?! Today I spent some time in the Singularity Tribe. Or ‘on’, rather. [The] Singularity Tribe is a massive space-station – you can spot me on one of the photo’s below if you look real close, to see the size – inside a globe as to make it feel you…
The Sounds of Poems in OtherWorld
OtherWorld, the bright and mysterious land created and sponsored by Elicio Ember – Cerridwen’s Cauldron, is the home of the Literary Festival of the Fantasy Faire. Last night I attended the “Sounds of Poems”, a wonderful way to explore the place – zooming with my camera – while listening to several writers who read their,…

Rebeca Bashly’s Chronophobia
It has been a while since I tried to produce an SL machinima, but yesterday I felt in the mood and wanted to do a blogpost with a video. And what better topic than Rebeca Bashly’s art installation on Split Screen, ‘Chronophobia’. I always love Rebeca’s work and this piece is no exception, though it…
Gates of Memories
Today I took the time for some exploring and ended up in a gorgeous, snowy, place called Gates of Memories. There is not much information to be found, or maybe it completely missed it!, other than the land description tells us: We don’t remember days, we remember moments
Failure to thrive – The Gray Child
This afternoon I have explored and enjoyed a new installation on LEA15 by Storm Septimus, called: ‘Failure to Thrive – The Gray Child‘. A wonderful, magical, place in a globe/sphere, filled with scenes and objects on water. Since it is built in a globe the artist strongly advises to use windlight ‘Places Las Legunas’ and…
A small summerbreak and a new man
The past days – I have been less active online and in-world, and enjoyed a bit of a summerbreak which I spend in real life. Not that the weather is super, but there have been some days without rain (!) and the weatherman on tv has promised some nice sunny days at the end of…
Dreamers – by Cica Ghost
Cica Ghost must be one of Second Life’s most productive artists, or so it seems to me.This morning I visited her latest art installation ‘Dreamers’ and as with all the works of this talented artist, I was delighted! Dreamers is placed in a half globe, or canopied as it is called, and is a magical…
SL12B – so many interviews, so little time!
The past week I have attended all the interviews with the Lindens in the Dreamitarium, and enjoyed them all. Of course, there was not just the talks with the Lindens – although they were for most perhaps the main attraction, but there was more!
SL12B, What Dreams May Come
Hard to miss, but in case you did: this weekend SL12B opened, 15 regions filled with resident-made expositions to celebrate Second Life’s 12th Anniversary. From the press release: Spanning 15 regions with over 200 exhibits and more than 600 performers, disk jockeys and speakers, SL12B is a showcase for the accomplishments and content of all…
Lost Dream
Lost Dreams, or Les Reves Perdu as it is also called, is a delightful place and lovely to spend some hours exploring, taking pictures and enjoying the playful decorations and landscaping. Not sure where the name comes from, or refers to as this place is certainly not a lost dream!
Ego – Being your own Muse
‘Ego – Being your own Muse‘ is a small exposition, in the CKB Art Gallery. It opened last Saturday and since I was unable to attend the opening, I went to visit it today. The exposition, as the name suggests, features works of various SL photographers with as main topic their own avatar. Each artist…
