Happy 2nd Anniversary to Binemist!


Yesterday, 18 may, it was exactly two years ago that Biné Rodenberger took over the sim she loved so much, Mystical Falls, and created her own virtual world, naming it: Binemist. I have, and still do, loved this place so much, with the changing scenery, the lovely way of decorating and landscaping and also the…

City Inside Out – by Haveit Neox


Opened on 26 march, but I got to explore it last night for the first time, is a marvelous art installation by Haveit Neox on LEA20, called: City Inside Out. It will be open till 30 June, so plenty of time to re-visit or go see it for the first time! Typical of Haveit’s work,…

Life in a Bowl – Cica Ghost


This weekend Cica Ghost opened yet another wonderful art installation on her home sim Wondering Dew, named: Life in a Bowl. This installation transformed the sim into a somewhat tropical island, and doesn’t have the funny buildings anymore but palmtrees, colourful flowers and large tanks and bowls in which large fish and seahorses live. The…

Fantasy Faire is open, come see the magic!


One of the best moments in my Second Life the past years, and 30 minutes ago,  have been for me: standing on one of the 11 Fantasy Faire sims, a few moments before opening…looking at the world map being as good as free of green dots, and then the countdown to opening.

Balloons- by Cica Ghost


The lovely and talented Cica Ghost is certainly one of SL’s most productive artists. In March she let us all enjoy her installation ‘Ruins’ about which I blogged here, and since a few days ago The Ruins made way for a brand new, wonderful and whimsical work ‘Balloons’. Characteristic use of Cica’s sunflowers and rusty…

The Making of Explorers and Warriors


When I am not exploring, or clubbing, I love to go out and about in Second Life and take pictures. Lately I have been practising in some more post-processing, mainly for Fantasy images, because I enjoy doing that – a nice change to my other passion: landscapes and art (which I do not post-process). This…

Lobby Cam – Bryn Oh


Last night I visited Bryn Oh‘s sim Immersiva to explore her new work: Lobby Cam. An interactive ‘installation’ and as all her works it is very photogenic. You land in a museum-like hall/room where Bryn’s works are on the wall. You can pick up the free HUD, which you will need if you want to…

Sparkys


Sparkys is a wonderful, black and white/greyish, art installation on MetaLes by Romy Nayar, telling the story of a world without colour. Luckily a scientist found out how to produce colours, by collecting them from the ‘Sparkys’ ( a bee-like creature, living in a black forest) and so the residents of this world are busy…

Metamorphosis


If you love the work of M.C. Escher, than you will most certainly enjoy a visit to Metamorphosis, by Beq Janus! A sim filled with black and white buildings, lizzards and staircases – Escher in 3D, in which I spent some hours exploring and walking through the fascinating build. What can I say, other then:…

Ruins – by Cica Ghost


To my delight Cica Ghost has a new sim, which will officially open today at 12PM SLT, with yet another amazing installation: Ruins. From the description: ‘Only the blackbirds and wildflowers remain to inhabit the ruins of the once active city, its brick edifices having collapsed to reveal the deserted worlds within’ Ruins is, as…

Light thoughts


Although my own thoughts are not exactly ‘light’  at the moment, this post isn’t about my thoughts – light or not. After Owl gave me a landmark to LEA 15 – and urged me to go see the installation by Mario2 Hellstein called ‘Light Thoughts‘ I paid it a visit today. Light Toughts is, as…

Firefly and Eclipse


A fantasy blogpost, for a change..just because I can and because I have had so much fun with the new skin from Fallen Gods Inc,  Lumina Eclipse, together with my good friend Coober who got the Luminous Firefly skin. (both skins are rares at the Fantasy Cacha Carnival, current round), and so we spent an…

Obsession Exposed, Gardens and Gallery


On the 1st of February I was invited to the opening of a new exhibition in ‘Obsession Exposed Gallery’ (Adult) where my friend Hugh has some of his wonderful pictures on display – in an exhibition featuring a lot of talented SL Photographers! The exhibition is certainly worth a visit and today I went back…

Borderlines


Last night, way past my bedtime…, I followed Ziki Questi’s trail to Borderlines – after reading her blog and seeing her fabulous photo’s on Flickr. (for detailed information and background I suggest you read Ziki’s article on Borderlines!) So. Borderlines! On a LEA sim and created by Lemonodo Oh, it is a wonderful coastline, quiet…

Sense


After seeing some amazing pictures on Flickr by various people, of intriguing statues in a place called Sense, I went to visit it this afternoon to see for myself. I didn’t find any background information on this mysterious looking place, it has text (in Italian I think) as ground texture and statues/sculptures are placed allover,…
