Floating


Currently to explore and admire on LEA13:  Floating. A wonderful, strange and mysterious art installation which is a collaboration of two of my favourite Second Life Artists, Cica Ghost and Bryn Oh. ‘Floating in the sea You and me To the sky you flew But I will wait for you’ Upon arrival you can choose…

Happy Easter!


Before I am offline for some family visits this Easter weekend, I had some fun dancing in at  the Gardens by the Bay (LEA15), in one of the many cute and magical spots on that sim. Such a lovely place, be sure to go there and explore, it will make you smile! Happy Easter  …

“Invictus” – by Storm Septimus


Second Life artist Storm Septimus has created an installation on LEA, called “Invictus” – based on the famous poem with the same title by  William Ernest Henley; Out of the night that covers me, Black as the pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul. In the fell…

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…

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,…

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…

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…

The Sea of Cubic Dreams


Last Saturday The Sea of Cubic Dreams opened, a wonderful art installation by Alegria Studio on LEA25. I had seen some preview pictures already and was keen to visit as soon as it was open! The Sea of Cubic Dreams is the first stage of a larger project ‘Theater Night’s Dream’ which is still in…

Control+Shift+R


This morning I visited a new installation on LEA: Control+Shift+R, by Wyzard Gynoid. It a massive ‘wire frame grid’ which you can explore via some elevators or just walk around. It is surely impressive, and just asks for taking arty pics using all kind of light and shadows! A wonderful work of art, perfect for…

Romeo + Juliet 2.0


I guess I am back! Was I gone? Not really, but the past week and a half (and maybe, in hindsight a bit before that already) I have been miserable and dealing with an ear-, throat- and sinus infection of (for me, not used to much..) epic proportions. I got antibiotics, painkillers and nose-spray and…

The Timewalkers


The Timewalkers by Solkide Auer on LEA15 is quite epic! It is so huge and colourful, and it moves and changes….hard to explain in a blogpost and it was also not easy to make pictures that give a good impression! I therefore keep this post short and just say: go see it and take the…

Ghosts of the Internet


It does not happen often that I have to leave Second Life and enter a different virtual world, in order to complete a  blogpost on an art installation, but “Ghosts of the Internet” by Glyph Graves made me do it! Ghosts of the Internet is located on the LEA21 sim in Second Life as well…

The Golden Age of Russian Avant Garde


Yesterday I visited LEA8, and initially I thought – upon landing looking at the land information – I landed in ‘WE’ by Eupalinos Uganjin. Upon walking about I noticed the names of the parcels changed and when I saw work of Bryn Oh and Sorror Nishi…I knew I needed to do some more research on…

The {Lost} Garden Of Sundarya Lahari By Xineohp Guisse


When randomly teleporting around, I ended up in The {Lost} Garden Of Sundarya Lahari By Xineohp Guisse, on LEA13. I explore a lot and often, well..actually it is how I spend most of my SL time. I do not blog about all places I visit, sometimes I just travel around without making pictures and other…

Dragon Curves


Dragon Curves, a full sim art installation on LEA26 by (Dutch) SL Artist Mac Kanashimi, is not – as I thought when I read the name – about Dragons as such, but turns out to be representation of the mathemathical Dragon Curve ! Mathematics, yeah that’s right. That usually has this effect on me…: Anyway,…
