  6. InReal, InWorld inArt is an exhibition an anthology of established artists in both the real world and the Metaverse. Second Life has always been since its inception a platform dedicated to the active creativity of its participants and on this premise has created a fertile and receptive environment that has supported the growth of outstanding artistic figures. Within it have developed currents and groups of experimenters, many of whom came from artistic spheres that predate virtual worlds and who, meeting with new tools, have developed new aesthetic and expressive forms. InReal, InWorld inArt is dedicated to this early vanguard of artists, who first came to the New Digital World, laying the foundation for a "Metaverse way of art" that now boasts prominent native artists. The exhibition presents works by eight artists representative of that generation: Gazira Babeli, Tina bay, Fau Ferdinand, Sarima Giha, Mexi Lane, Marco Manray, Patrick Moya , Bryn Oh, real world artists who in the social virtual worlds have matured a sensibility and an original aesthetic and technical path that they have then brought back to the real world. The exhibition will be followed by a catalog with critical contributions and biographies of the authors, which will be presented at the Sarah Ann Art & Sea Bookshop in Kalvoya. The staging and curatorship The building that will host the exhibition is by designer and set designer Dario Buratti (Colpo Wexler), known for the creativity and elegance of his architecture, especially dedicated to art, one for all the SOMA (San Francisco Museum of Art) and commercial buildings: many big names rely on his constructions, such as Belleza, Cosmopolitan, Backbone, Très Chic, ACCESS, and many others. The curatorship of the exhibition is provided by Rosanna Galvani (Roxelo Babenco), founder and manager of the Museum of the Metaverse, a cultural center that since the origins of Second Life has been collecting in its collections ( now moved to a large museum in OpenGrid) works by artists and creators who have found their inspiration and expressive technique here, coming from very different experiences: artists in reality or natives. The environment will be set up by landscape designer Eva Lowtide (Melissa Lowtide), who has already had the opportunity to showcase her skills by creating environments for Second Norway when it was owned by Ey Ren Location The exhibition area is located in Nasoya, a residential area of Second Norway within walking distance of the bookshop built to promote the event and other events that will take place during the perid of Summer Sailstuice. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Nesoya/110/186/33 The exhibition is organized by: Sarah Ann Sailing The art of navigating the screen Museo del Metaverso Supported by: Second Norway Real Estate Partnership: In Real, In World in Art, is part of the Summer Sailstice 2024 celebration in Second Life and participates in the American Cancer Society's Relay For Life fundraiser.

On the occasion of the summer solstice, a season that celebrates light and renewal, we are proud to present "Run for the Sea.

This non-competitive marathon takes place along Second Norway's road network, offering participants the opportunity to explore some of the region's most enchanting and distinctive places in a run that is as much a personal challenge as it is a journey through natural beauty. Starting at Ruoya in the southwest of the region, runners will venture through breathtaking landscapes that offer spectacular views of the oceans we seek to protect. The finish line is located in the picturesque village of Kalvoya, where we will celebrate not only our achievements but also our collective commitment to protecting our seas. "Run for the Sea is not just a marathon; it is a call to action. Through this event, we want to bring to the public's attention the ecological problems that plague our oceans, from plastic contamination to biodiversity loss. Every step we run together brings the world closer to greater awareness and, we hope, concrete solutions to protect our precious marine ecosystems.

  10. Argomento interessante. personalmente, anche perché giro poco, non ho visto Avi incinte, ma non mi stupirei. Hai mai provato a parlarci, a chiedere perché hanno scelto di rappresentarsi così? Un Avatar non è un semplice "segnaposto" , è il rappresentante di una identità. Posso immaginare (se si pensa male) che vi siano anche , come dire, situazioni in cui essere con un certo corpo ha solo un senso strumentale: generalmente oggetto sessuale, per dirla tutta. Ma non saprei. Io credo che la più parte delle rappresentazioni siano "sane", esaltano quelle che sono le attitudini della persona che li anima, Direi che la più parte dele persone qui è se stessa, magari meglio: più alta, più giovane, più bellè: qui la bellezza è un valore assoluto. Il "brutto" è una estetica voluta. Tante Avi incinta - lo spero per i loro ghost (così mi piace chiamare la persona che anima l'avastar) - forse sono desiderio di tenerezza e di maternità.
  11. Hi Aethelwine, I agree with you, the Sailstice I think is the event of the year, for the world of sailing in Second Life. I met Pelagia right there, and she introduced me to her project, which immediately convinced me. A story that I wanted to write.
  12. Well, Garnet you actually point out a problem. However, I must say that this is not an advertisement, these are interviews. First of all the contents are released under a creative commons license, I do not receive any compensation from those I interview, I am not affiliated with anyone and I do not perform any paid editorial activity. Of course, what you say is true: this is a discussion group, and mine is not a question, it is an interview. But how it's possible to share here as well as in Facebook and other communities, what I write, I wouldn't know how to do differently. What I can say is that I like to tell the stories of the people who live and work in Inworld, and I like to share them and hear what people think. Thank you for your critique though, all sensibilities should be discussed.
  13. Choosing was difficult. As always in the cases of creative contest winners, the choices are a summary and a compromise. A summary of the quality and expertise of all the photographers in the contest that have fought on equal terms. A compromise, because the criteria by which we judged the winning works and photographers have been many, not only the personal taste. I personally loved so many shots that made my job as a judge and selector difficult. All photographers deserve applause, and all have a place of honor in my ideal photo gallery. And so it will be in "The Gentle Breath of Script" Catalog, which we're going to put together this summer with all the photos on display that will be available in the marketplace and in the first room of the exhibit in Havna Bay. We are also working on a web version, and... I stop, I don't want to add anything else, it will be a surprise. In September we will resume the organization of other events, contests, and exhibitions of the best photographers and not only. I invite you to directly see the works of the winners in Havna Bay thank you again to all participants and I hope to see you soon participating in our next initiatives. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Havna/115/90/26 ------------------->> Winner<<--------------------- WILDSTAR BEAUMONT title: the Crow's Nest. 2015-1 category: Ports and sea towns BRUTUSLIONHEART9 title People 2020-1 category People of the sea DEAN HAYSTACK title: EEP Guardian Windlight category: Sails and sailboats KITTEN MILLS title: Ushuaia + Bandit 60 (no racing category: Regattas and races
  14. #CLOUD9 #FIJIFloatingBar is a place to remember. Not only because it is fabulous, but because it is a place born from the desire to give shape to a dream, the dream of Pelagia Knosos (Malifax) that is now also part of my dream and that of the many virtual navigators in #SecondLife whose routes cross Cloud 9. The most beautiful experience in a virtual world is sharing dreams? Let's read his interview... And leave a comment if you like it. ---------->> GO TO INTERVIEW

  16. The inhabitants of Inworld are a people of Artists, Navigators and (cultural) mutants. This is the interview I did to Diamonte, intergalactic smuggler and operative in GTFO the most intriguing roleplay of all Second Life. Read here the post by Diamonte
  17. Dale Irata, like the different people interviewed in this series dedicated to the Blake Sea, is gifted with a predisposition to the imagination, necessary to have a vision of opportunities and organizational skills. Characteristics that distinguish entrepreneurs and that generally do not believe to be essential in a virtual world. Yet inreal, inworld, the two sides of the mirror are not only close and communicating, but are and will always be more and more parts of the same reality. Dale’s work has gone in this direction, the creation of the virtual Summer Sailstice in Second Life is an example of this path, today that the pandemic acted as an accelerator, but was already a reality. I admire Dale’s work and however small my contribution may be, I will try to help him in his endeavor. Even with an interview. Read here the post by Dale
  18. Second Life is a fascinating world, which allows anyone to travel to fantastic places and discover cities, islands, entire continents traveling by any means: trains, cars, planes, ships. The pleasure of discovery and travel is the basis of GTFO! A logistics and exploration game for SecondLife that counts hundreds of players - enthusiastic transporters. DeNasty Tigerpaw the lead moderator of the GTFO community tells us his experience, but he also lets us know the players' experience, what are their interests and preferences by bringing us the data of an original survey conducted for this interview, absolutely not to be missed to understand the fascination of "slow" travel in Second Life. "Creating stories around the world helps to make a place more memorable," says DeNasty, and we agree. Read here the post by DeNasty
  19. Ciao Liv, sono molto d'accordo con Robert67, la barca permette una tranquillità nel passaggio fra le SIM che un aereo non ha. Nel Mare di Blake dove ho casa (precisamente a Second Norway) devo dire che il passaggio per una barca a vela o un normale yacht è praticamente indolore. In atto c'è un progetto dove è stato clonato il mare di Blake nei nuovi server cloud di second life. Questo test in Aditi sta dando buoni frutti, anche per gli aerei, Qui trovi l'articolo di Inara Pay BLAKE SEA IN THE CLOUD ON ADITI qui trovi il forum con i test

  21. con un nuovo profilo, nuovo nome e pass, sei come nuova. devi farti riconoscere come amica e rimandare a tutti un invito.
  22. ciao Zievatron iniziamo col dire che gli avatar non si comprano, si "indossano". L'avatar è formato da tanti strati, ad esempio la pelle, il volto, i capelli, i tatuaggi, gli abiti... e via così Quello che hai comprato è in un box, è una scatola contenente diciamo i file che simulano uno di questi componenti. Per aprire il box devi cliccarci sopra, e dal menù scegli "apri". Ti comparirà una lista di oggetti e un tasto per copiare i contenuti nella tua inventory, Poi segui le istruzioni che vi troverai al suo interno, ma ti consiglio di andare a vedere qualche tutorial, perché non è molto facile crearsi un avatar. Io me lo sono fatto fare. Buona fortuna!
  23. Ciao Zievatron, direi che hai diverse speranze. Probabilmente sei partito con delle aspettative che non corrispondono a quello che puoi fare, probabilmente non guardi dove devi guardare. Comunque la cosa migliore è, se vuoi, sentirci. qui è difficile raccontare qualcosa. cerca Stex Auer, sono io. PS. Non è un problema di viewer.
  24. Ci sono giocatori italiani di GTFO che vogliono organizzarsi in una community? io non ne conosco, qualcuno sa indicarmi se esiste o se c'è qualcuno con cui costituirla?
