Where Have You Been? S04E13: Gingerbread and the Woodies

In this episode we inves­ti­gate a new instal­la­tion at alpha tribe Island: “Gin­ger­bread and the Wood­ies”.

Gin­ger­bread and the Wood­ies on alpha tribe Island has been cre­at­ed by Alpha Auer and is exact­ly what it might sound like — a dis­play of the sea­son in wood and gin­ger­bread. But what you’ll dis­cov­er on alpha tribe Island is real­ly much more. It’s full of delight, whim­sy, and some mad-cool orig­i­nal mesh.

WYB S04E07: Bloom Light Show Residency at SLEA

The lat­est edi­tion (S04E07) of “Where Have You Been?” — the VCRa­dio orig­i­nal series that fea­tures places to go and things to do around the Sec­ond Life Grid — takes a look at a stun­ning mul­ti­me­dia art expe­ri­ence at the Sec­ond Life Endow­ment for the Arts.

“Semence: A Dig­i­tal Odyssey” is a light and par­ti­cle show cre­at­ed by Lalie Sor­bet and Chrix. The name “Semence” means “seed” in French, and also refers to the repro­duc­tive cell of all liv­ing forms. This sym­bol­izes the essence of the artists’ explo­ration of a dig­i­tal world filled with pix­els, col­ors, shapes, and effects. “Semence” rep­re­sents a jour­ney through the cycle of life, from incep­tion to growth and beyond, and uses the full poten­tial of Sec­ond Life, inte­grat­ing par­ti­cles, mesh­es, ani­mesh, and oth­er effects to cre­ate a mem­o­rable experience.

These light shows real­ly are unlike any­thing you’ve seen on this grid. Not only can you observe the show, but sit in the chairs pro­vid­ed and you will soon find your­self immersed in the show- lit­er­al­ly, fly­ing amidst the emerg­ing and chang­ing shapes and col­ors. The artists say, “Semence” is more than just a show. It is a metaphor for life’s jour­ney. We want you to be more than just a spec­ta­tor. Visu­al effects will seam­less­ly incor­po­rate you into the nar­ra­tive, mak­ing you an inte­gral part of this dig­i­tal adven­ture. Join us to wit­ness and par­tic­i­pate in this fusion of tech­nol­o­gy and art, where every ele­ment is a seed sown to cul­ti­vate won­der, growth, and inspiration.

Where Have You Been?: Two Sides of October

In the lat­est episode of our orig­i­nal series, “Where Have You Been?”, which sug­gests things to do and places to vis­it around the Sec­ond Life Grid, we approach the month of Octo­ber in two dif­fer­ent ways: The Bri­ar Woods present a pleas­ant Autum­nal scene, while the Ride of Doom lends a Hal­lowe’en-ish feel­ing to the pro­ceed­ings. Both are well worth a visit!

We also sug­gest a cou­ple of oth­er venues that might be worth your perusal.

This show airs on Octo­ber 25 and 28, plus Nov 1 and 4, at 12 noon and 4pm SLT/Pacific.

There are two loca­tions at the moment, both with  plen­ty to offer. One is host­ed by the Help­ing Haven Gate­way owned by Lily Swindle­hurst, and the oth­er is on the main­land in the region Chilbo.
