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.

Where Have You Been?: Expedition Central
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 discoverJosain Zsun’s Expedition Central, a long-lived and enjoyably old-school approach to presenting links to places of interest around and about in Second Life. 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.
This show airs on October 11, 14, 18 and 21, at 12 noon and 4pm SLT/Pacific.

Where Have You Been?: Return to Limoncello

It was started some 16 years ago, and it’s a big private collection open to the public.

They were envisioned and created by Viggen Petofi who began over six years ago with the parcels on Bhima and a few more, and has built it out as land became available and he could purchase it.

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, this time explores the mysterious Centre of Second Life where the handprint of Second Life is on the very terrain! In addition, we discuss Draxtor Despres’s 47-minute machinima, “Made in SL: The Movie”, commissioned by Linden Lab for the 20th anniversary of the launch of Second Life. It’s well worth a watch — and it can be found on the Linden Lab YouTube Channel — or the link below. And we’ll tell you about the region of Omidyar where you can see the Second Life Logo Region for yourself. And take a deep breath and wander the heights and valleys of the Forest of Karuhvel to discover what’s there to be found by the brave and persistent.

The Glinka Gallery — Featuring artist Lash VV
June is Pride Month in the United States and many other countries, and that’s just one of the reasons that we’re featuring Wolfgang Glinka’s Glinka Gallery in this edition of “Where Have You Been?”.
For those who might not know, Pride Month started in 1969 in the United States as a response to the Stonewall riots, which served as a catalyst for the gay rights movement in the United States and around the world. The observance has grown and expanded over the years, and Pride Month celebrates LGBTQIA+ culture as well as working to build rights awareness.
The Glinka Gallery holds regular exhibitions and performances on the gallery’s five floors, featuring fine art, sculpture, photography, poetry, music and dance.
The Edge Gallery — in black & white
Kultivate Magazine is a publication about the cultural aspects of Second Life — and a lot more! Its goal is to support art, culture, photography, music, and fashion.
Kultivate’s endeavours in Second Life include the magazine (of course) but their grid presence is significant, incorporating, among other things, a number of galleries including The Edge Gallery of Black & White Imagery, which is the subject of this programme.
The Edge Gallery specifically features black and white imagery and art. We take a more detailed look at the current exhibit, which just opened, showing a variety of artists with unique approaches to monochrome 2‑D imagery.

Where Have You Been?: A Hidden Gem
Often on “Where Have You Been?” we feature large-scale locations — art galleries, nature regions and so on. But in addition from time to time we’ve featured smaller, more intimate venues ideal for a quiet chat with a friend or a date night. “Where Have You Been?” is in a good position to feature destinations like these. So we are starting a special occasional series to focus on small destinations, in addition to continuing our coverage of larger venues, art shows, and events: “Hidden Gems — for date nights and special occasions.” And this episode is the first official Hidden Gems episode.
