When talking to Strawberry Linden in last week’s Lab Gab one of the questions was about the voice acting in STÖMOL and if we hired actors for that. The past year, when I told friends about what we were doing, this question also came up a few times ‘how do you film speech?’ Well, we…

Our talk at Lab Gab and a BIG STÖMOL event next week!
This evening Huckleberry Hax and I were invited to Second Life’s Live Talkshow ‘Lab Gab’, to talk about STÖMOL with Strawberry Linden. It was quite an experience, I had never been on a livestreamed talkshow before and I was super excited. Before we started Strawberry did a soundcheck and it appeared I was producing a…
STÖMOL on Lab Gab, this friday!
There is a lot going on behind the scenes, in preparation to the premiere of STÖMOL! Besides getting ready for the premiere and getting the venue ready (not to mention sorting out my outfit and hair!), Huck and I are invited to Strawberry Linden’s weekly live talkshow ‘Lab Gab’ to talk about the movie! Yesterday…
Where everybody knows your name
(Advertorial) This week Dutchie came out with a new building: The Red Brick Café! The building is a Second Life house with 3 floors and a traditional Dutch clock gable or facade. It’s built as close to realistic size as possible, which makes stairs and ladders hard to navigate on. Therefore Dutchie added 4 teleporters…
Underwhere
“Art for arts sake, no real purpose beyond that” says Hera (zee9.resident) in her notecard, telling about Underwhere. Hera’s latest sim, or art installation as you will, is very different than her previous cities. If you are expecting a new Drune or something Cyberpunk, you will be disappointed. If you want to be amazed and…
SL17B : The Gift Boardwalk
Of all the amazing regions for Second Life’s 17th birthday, I wanted to highlight a rather unique one: The Gift Boardwalk! Yeah, that’s right: a boardwalk filled with kiosks that are filled with gifts. Stuff for free. Lots of stuff! Poses, hair, clothing, accesories..you name it. Oh and did I mention it is all for…
SL17B: Vacations and road trips!
Second Life launched to the public on June 23rd, 2003 and this year we are celebrating SL’s 17th birthday! Because in Second Life, you can explore the (virtual) world from the safety and comfort of your own home, this year’s birthday theme is ‘vacations and road trips’! As on every Second Life birthday, there are…
Don’t we all need a Breath of Nature?
The other night I was exploring and via lots of landmarks I found myself on a gorgeous sim: Breath of Nature. A place I could use in real life as well, specially after 12 weeks of lockdown! I don’t have much to tell today (I am not in a chatty mood), other than you will…

Stömol backstage – my life as a Second Life actress
In my last blogpost of 2019, I briefly mentioned Stömol, the feature-length machinima by my dear friend Huckleberry Hax, and that I have played a part (or two…three…) in this Sci-fi movie. People often ask me ‘Cait, what is it like? Being an actress in Second Life?’ Well, to be honest. Nobody has ever asked…
Elvion – The Secret Forest
If you love nature and green forests, enormous meadows and panoramic views over the ocean, Elvion is the place to visit! Fantastic for Second Life photographers, explorers or those looking for a quiet place for a romantic date – Elvion offers it all. At the landing point you are given a notecard with sim-rules, though…
The Muse
Last year I have spent most of my SL time in cyberpunk themed sims, while busy with Stömol, the movie by Huckleberry Hax and to be fair…I kind of missed the fantasy side of Second Life every now and then. But, now the filming is done and Huck is busy with editting the movie together,…
Nevgilde Gaard – Small and delightful
A beautiful place in Second Life doesn’t always need to be the size of a full sim. Proof of that is Nevgilde Gaard. On 1/8th of a sim, Neaira Allegiere created a deligthful – inspired by Norwegian nature – coastal piece of heaven – which you should definitely visit! What can I say..other than that…
Auld Lang Syne – Isles of Scotland
Are you in the mood for some SL Traveling? I know I am! One of my current favourite destinations to explore and admire is Auld Lang Syne, Isles of Scotland. Created by Elo Moon (eloiseblake), the Isles of Scotland is a beautiful place, or as she says in the land information: Remote, rustic and occasionally…

Tomorrow, 6 February at 9AM SLT, Second Life’s largest holiday shopping-mall opens to the public: The Valentine Shop & Hop!
