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….

I want to run….


‘I want to run I want to hide I want to tear down the walls That hold me inside I want to reach out And touch the flame Where the streets have no name..’ ‘I want to feel sunlight on my face I see the dust cloud disappear Without a trace I want to take…

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…

The Basilique


Several times I promised Becky (canary.beck) to come visit her sim The Basilique,  and after Honour blogged about it I knew I really had no excuses and teleported over this morning! The Basilique (Adult) is a Private Members Club for Adults, and to access the members venues/club one needs to purchase a membership (LS 350)…

Stirring the Dreams


The past three days I have visited the art installation ‘Stirring the Dreams’ on the Port of Sparquerry sim a couple of times, after Crow gave me this landmark. Stirring the Dreams is created by Haveit Neox and covers two sims. It is…..epic! There is so much to see, so many complex buildings with details…

I’m your Boogieman!


Although I never have a problem in getting up early, no matter if I have slept a lot or just a couple of hours, I have a great alarm-clock. Usually I am awake before it really starts, but it is great anyway: I have the Philips Wake-Up Light – which simulates sunrise and best of…

Surreally?


This week Strawberry came up with a wonderful new challenge: ‘create an image in Second Life that has  a surreal feel for you.’ First thing I thought was: YAY! and then I thought..hang on..isn’t Second Life one big surreal image and environment? For me it is, no matter how real the friendships, contact with others…
