UPDATE: 8.10.2022 

SAT gallery was on a rental parcel. 

I missed paying the rent. 

The whole place got deleted. 

Gutted.  

What happens next?  

Learn from the experience. 

Problems and Solutions. 


A Vampires Garden exhibition had 66 pictures. One picture per prim = 66 Prims. That's a lot.  Too many. For that many images its much better to make a YouTube video with a watermark to copyright the art and use the Prim Media in SL to display the YouTube video. 66 pictures = 1 Prim. It's better than a SL slideshow as it creates less lag and means the YouTube video exists even if the build gets deleted. That's how I'm going to work from now on. 

Video prims can be exhibited in The Kohl Club. Thankfully it's located on another parcel adjoining the first. Hence the confusion when I thought the rent was paid. The rental vendor does not differentiate between two parcels when they are both rented by one person. We live and learn and that's a win. Try to find a better landlord, one who allows live music gigs on their estate.  


UPDATE: 31.10.2022

YouTube 18-rated content is not compatible with SecondLife Media Prims. The Vampires Garden video is 18+ due to graphic content involving sexuality and post-violence. Bodily fluids including your mouth watering at such luscious visual imagery. However, the YouTube video does make it possible to display far more of the 66 pictures from the Vampires Garden batch which got uploaded to SecondLife. There are a lot of them. Those 66 pics will be put on SecondLife slideshows after all. 

There are also exhibition catalogues, currently hiding somewhere in my inventory waiting for the day-of-focus it will take to find them and display them in the gallery space. 



the internet is integrated, largely owned by the same corporation, but still this. 


Yet we cannot hyperlink between platforms owned by the same company. Why? 





2022




version of snakeappletree avatar based on how I looked in-real-life during my twenties




It's 2022.

On 22nd February this year, 

at 22 minutes past ten at night, 

22 hundred hours by military reckoning, 

the maths code for the moment was 


22022022

22:22 


Never again to be repeated

A turning point in history. 

The number two of course signifies partnership in numerology. 


There are 22 Major Arcana in the Tarot.

(23 symbolises close-of-cycle / start-of-cycle). 


So obviously it seems only right 

I should find my way back 

to the castle at the centre of the goblin city 

and once again immersed in SecondLife. 


It has been a busy year and it took until mid-year,

 as symbolic a turning point as the first mentioned, 

to log-in and be blissed. 


I began building. 

Keeping it simple. 


Brutalist concrete architecture 

modelled vaguely on cathedrals 

and similar spaces & places. `



I re-trod what little old ground still remains.

I discovered the very best Goth club in SecondLife:  Black Division. 

I resumed friendship with some old buddies who have been busy in my absence. 

I made friends and chatted with, learned much from, an artist whose work I have admired for quite some time yet previously held in awe beyond my ability to communicate.  

Of course it being SecondLife making available that which is less than regularly possible in the drab real world I got distracted almost immediately by a couple of brief yet intense flings with a couple of couples along the way. Probably I shouldn't mention about that other than the numbers add up to the theme, so it counts for something. 



Brutalist concrete architecture. 

Basked in pink and cyan blue light because Slaaneshi retro-wave theme works so well it. 

Pictures.
