Don't look at me! Somebody else built it. I just took the pictures!

I'm building a new house on a new piece of property.

The view from the living room at sunset.

I got a nice tour of the property! So spectacular...

I'm still a hopeless SL addict...constantly building, trying new script tweaks, messing around. It's a fun place to play, and it's really relaxing for me. Sometimes I TP (teleport) to my chalet in the mountains and just watch the snow fall while I sit by the fire in my RAVEN avatar. Heh-heh. Then I'm totally ready to get up and do the dishes or something.

Lately I've been working on a horrible redneck nightmare residential thing. It's sort of a blood-stained trailer trash shack. I've scripted a nasty toxic spill into the local Linden River, because I'm a very bad bad girl. If I could work Star Wars into it it would be heaven for me LOL.

I did start a Star Wars SteamPunk group on there which seems to be coming alive...wonder if I can get a bit of horror into it too? Hmmm. Anyway, I'll work on uploading some pics soon. Come back SL-tasters! You know you want to...

My trash-swanky look:

...and my personal toxic dumping area heh-heh:

ok, so like....where are there never any "other people" in any of the screen shots I see? I would think in a world so popular and heavily developed, there'd be crowds on every street corner...especially since youre not off whacking undead (or some such) in a distant (valley? lake? castle?)

While SL has several million users, the most I've ever seen online at once is 70,000. SL is a big place. You rarely see crowds.

I found this art gallery on SL where you can reenact the painting La Mort de Marat by David.

Oooo - It might be worth it to join just to stage a virtual version of Marat-Sade

I've been exploring some of the art installations in SL too, and am happy to report the discovery of one Bryn Oh, who has an incredible build on "immersiva." She also makes machinima*...and this one, 4Jetpacks4, is totally mindblowing. She does the builds and and makes the films. When you consider that the entire world of SL starts off with a simple malleable plywood cube...

I am simply in awe! I'm also grateful I've been introduced to the music of Fever Ray. I'm so inspired by this creator.

*flicks made inside games**...they can be a bit primitive due to tool limitations, but can also be quite well-conceived.

**Second Life is not a real "game," of course...it's a virtual, user-created world. It's anything you want it to be, if you can make it. Pretty much everything you ever see in there is made by one of us, a resident, not by a gaming company. It's a fantastic creative outlet.

I just found this video today. Someone has recreated the Main Street Electrical Parade in Second Life.
