“Where Have You Been?” visits Svarga and discovers SLRPS
Just after 12 noon and 4pm Pacific/Second Life time on Wednesday and Saturday beginning April 27th (for two weeks) tune in for the latest edition of “Where Have You Been?” where we take a look at places to visit and things to do around the Second Life Grid.
In Series 2, Episode 9, we visit a fabulous location from the dim past: Svarga. It was created in 2006 by Laukosargas Svarog, and even in those days it was a must-see destination — an excellent example of the virtual builder’s craft. It’s immersive, and uses a rich mixture of shape and texturing to evoke the world of the Gods from Slavic mythology.
It’s one of the regions preserved by Linden Lab as being of special historical interest — and we also discuss the SLRPS (Second Life Region Preservation Society) and some of the other historic regions preserved under its banner.
And every four hours from 4am Pacific, catch Engines of Our Ingenuity from the University of Houston — a radio programme that tells the story of how our culture is formed by human creativity.
