World’s End Garden ~Noir et Blanc is an art installation, and even though it is under construction for some parts, it is still amazing! You land in a black environment with white waves, in the distance you see a shiny garden! The waves are rolling under your feet, a strange experience!

Analog Dog
Hair! Yeah, one of my weaknesses in Second Life is buying hair. Or trying demo’s! Today I went to Analog Dog, it is the hairshop that is kind of famous for the curly and afro hair. The ‘shop’ is not really a building, but a half flooded sim (you shop with your new shoes in…
Grand Canyon
In real life I have never been to the Grand Canyon, but it is on my wishlist! Luckily there is Second Life and I was happy to find out you can visit the Grand Canyon in virtuality! It is a great place for photo shoots, specially when you play a bit with different skies and…
Split Screen
Nope, this post is not about using online social media on splitscreens (as Hootsuite or Splitweet) but about an art installation called Split Screen, meaning two art installations on a sim. On arrival you are advised to set your world to midnight, for full enjoyment! I did and explored the two (hence the Split) works…
Releasing my inner bunny!
Heh! Okay, I have not worked on the Linden Egg for the decoration contest yet, but to get in the right spirit I dressed myself up for Easter! Maybe this helps me getting creative over the weekend, but if not..then at least I will be a happy Bunny! This outfit is a mix from several…
Bunny Jam 2011
Yay, it’s time for a new Linden Event: Bunny Jam 2011 ( <–this link brings you to all the information you need)! It’s all about Easter and this year there is an ‘Egg Decoration Contest’. I got myself the free egg and am now waiting for inspiration to decorate it…Luckily I have some time, so…
Windlight settings
I almost forgot…but last weekend (where did the week AND another weekend go?) I downloaded and installed the extra windlightsettings in my Viewer 2.6, giving me some more options to play with when taking photo’s in world! (one may have noticed those already on the latest photo’s, it is not all Photoshop what you see!…
ZED
Nothing cheers me up better on a grey Sunday morning than visiting a colorful sim, filled with art and weird things. So this morning I went to explore ZED (M). It’s colorful, with a pirate ship filled with grass and butterflies, chess pieces and some funny poseballs here and there. Also, on top of the…
Done gardening (for now!)
In real-life I do not have a garden. I have had one or two, ages ago and always like working in them. Specially in spring, getting new plants and flowers and being busy out in the fresh air. In Second Life I always enjoy keeping up with the seasons on our sim, ImperiuM Island (G),…
Farstar New Earth: Parallel Worlds
The Parallel Worlds on Farstar New Earth (G) are simply: breathtaking! On landing point (you enter the sim on ground level) you need to take the teleporter to the Parallel Worlds, to find yourself high in the sky in a surreal build of spheres, where you find the most absurd and magical environments. Fantasy creatures…
Burn 2 : Burnal Equinox
A small version of the official big Burn2 festival is the Burn 2 Spring Event, held this weekend. On the Burning Man sim (deep hole) with lots of performances, parties, art-installations and..fire, all in the wellknown desert! Unfortunately I missed the official opening on Fridaynight, but had a great time later in the evening attending…
IDIA’s Flickr Gettr
What a wonderful experience: IDIA’s Flickr Gettr! Perfect to relax and watch beautiful pictures, in an amazing techical art installation! I really enjoyed this :). You need a shared media capable viewer (I am currently using with the V2.6- Beta), enable the shared mediaplayer and for best results I also pushed the graphics to Ultra….
Smile!
Yay, I am back from real-life….could not keep up with the blog, but maybe I will catch up the missing days in the weekend (and cheat a bit!). For now, I am looking forward to go back inworld and see if I missed something (besides my friends!).
Valhal
Thanks to my travels in Second Life, I am (almost) never bored in quiet weekends as this! Most of my SL friends are offline in the weekends, to spend time in this thing called Real Life. Me? I don’t have much going on in there, so I click the teleport-button and fly around in cyberspace…
Solidea Folies & Salimar
I am not really sure if the creators/builders that made Salimar intended to give it that mediterranean feel it gave me, but if they did: very well done! It reminded me a bit of a little town in the south of France, Provence du Var, called Fayence where I have spent some wonderful summer holidays…
