I selected “Heaven” from scoop.it SL Destinations for my simploring tour on Sunday, June 2nd.

Heaven, art installation @LEA1 by Oema and Van Loopen

 

“Heaven” is a drawings series thought to add a value of women. The evocative church is the 3D part, and the fascinating media lights are the machinima part of this installation for LEA. Media enable are very important to see optimally.

“Heaven” is created by Oema for the “Linden Endowment for the Art” in collaboration with Van Loopen.
18 drawings in black & white by Oema showing female faces a presented at the walls of a cathedral built from mesh. This way the church is just a frame. In the altar area colourful forms appear permanently changing, giving the impression of fireworks. The experience is accompanied with music and other holographic figures that you can see hoovering through the cathedral if you look from farer away, if you look closer, the figures are made of net as well.

This all makes a visit to “Heaven” a virtual experience. I recommend reading Oema’s text about Heaven in her blog here and to watch the machinima she published here. Then go there and get impressed.

Thank you for providing this piece of art for us all, Oema and Van Loopen.

Diary 2019 (82) June 2nd / 3rd Quiet but enjoyable days

Sunday, June 2nd, I was inworld several times. In the morning I checked old landmarks and deleted a lot of them as they weren’t valid anymore. I went on a simploring tour later in the morning.
In the afternoon I roamed a bit, had a kinky meeting (no, I didn’t take pictures, and no nothing really happened *winks*). Finally at night I went simploring again. These days with Jenny and slave Flo on vacation I get more time for myself.
After my simploring tour I went back home and wrote the simploring report until Jenny came inworld. We had a lot to catch up about RL and SL. Then Jenny mentioned my addiction and she cared about it. It really was about time I got licking and tasting her again.

June 2nd: Jenny and Diomita at home (left pictures) / Jenny and Diomita with slave slut cecy (right Pictures)

slave slut cecy was inworld and when Jenny and I both were satisfied we went down to our house to see her. THen Jenny had to leave and to continue enjoying her vacation. I took slave slut cecy back to Psi’s realm and teased her a bit about her RL orgasm … and went to bed.

Monday, June 3rd, I made no simploring tour but spent some time in the afternoon at Heavy Bondage Club and at club Domme a Domme and enjoyed eye candy and reading profiles. At night I had Emmi (RileyLynch) with me, selected a corset, cuffs and gag for her and tied her up to my likes. She’s a perfect bondage doll toy. When Jenny came inworld Emmi went working on her wardrobe. Jenny and I caught up with our news and I got my treat to satisfy my addiction (and Jenny’s addiction).

I ended my night with Emmi at Psi’s realm.

Simploring 2019 (66) Mystic Timbers – Extra worlds

On Saturday, June first, I continued exploring Mystic Timbers (read Simploring 2019 (65) Mystic Timbers). This time I focused on the 6 places offered by the teleport board next to the landing point at Mystic Timbers: Rain City, Road to Nowhere, Red Room Spa, Roofs of Paris, The Rendezvous, The Retreat. All these places are located in the sky above Mystic Timbers. They offer particular backgrounds for photographers and some can also to used for roleplay or for adult scenes. That’s why Mystic Timbers is rated adult.

I started with Rain City. As the name implies, it rains there. Rain City offers apocalyptic urban street scenes with crashed and burning cars. Most of Rain City is just facade. You can enter a boxing studio though and I did. I even tried boxing against a sand bag.

Mystic Timbers – Rain City (1) – street scenery and boxing studio

The subway entries aren’t fake as well, if you walk down you get some great bakdrops for subway stations. And there’s also a red light district that can be used as backdrop. Of course I posed there a bit although this time I wasn’t dressed for it but still in my summer outfit from our Friday night party.

Mystic Timbers – Rain City (1) – subway station and red light district

Road to Nowhere is a scenery of motel located at a lonesome highway in the middle of nothing, a desert is around the motel. The bike in front of the motel offers some nice poses and the scenery itself it once a again a nice backdrop.

Mystic Timbers – Road to Nowhere

The Red Room Spa is an adult place, very luxurious with a big spa, some bdsm gear, a lovely bathroom, a seperate corner for dressing, a stylish living room and a big hall for party and events.

Mystic Timbers – Red Room Spa

The Rendezvous is one single room with windows looking out to London City. Basically it is a bedroom, for sure nice to meet your loved one.

Mystic Timbers – The Rendezvous and Roofs of Paris

The Roofs of Paris is a scenery that I did see before, yet I don’t remember where. The landing is on a roof. I didn’t find any poses, you have to rezz those yourself for taking pictures with this background. But be careful, you might fall …. down to Msytic Timbers

The last place I visited was The Retreat. Again that is just one room. All furniture is covered with sheets as are the pictures on the walls. But the furniture has adult poses and the rug in front of the fireplace has whole scenes. It might be a great place to take Jenny to, as it is not that obvious what’s hidden there.

Mystic Timbers – The Retreat

All the 6 extra worlds offer different backdrops and sceneries for photographers and together with Mystc Timbers itself there’s almost everything covered. Not that I persoanlly miss that, but sc-fi is not covered, nor fantasy (but there’re enough other places for that).
Mystic Timbers is owned by a group of 9 people: Graice (graice2), Soffy Ronwood, Elise Sirnah, Grace Sixpence, Morgan (morganmonroe1), Lofty Lemur, Bee (filipa emor), Silivren (Neida Rae) and sol (solking)Thank you all for providing Mystic Timbers and the 6 extra Worlds to the public! I enjoyed my visit and had fun exploring the different areas.

Simploring 2019 (65) Mystic Timbers

For my simploring tour on Friday, May 31st, I picked Mystic Timbers from scoop.it SL Destinations. Mystic Timbers is located in a full region rated adult. As far as I could find out, Mystic Timbers is owned by sol (solking).

According to the landmark description Mystic Timbers is in the English countryside. It has a bustling harbour, promenades and a narrow beach, there’re vibrant shops to persue at your leisure and there’s a gallery. Mystic Timbers is intended to be a place for photographers and bloggers or just to have fun and to enjoy the environment.

Mystic Timbers – overview

The landing point is in the town close to the harbour. Right next to the where you land is a teleporter board to access 6 different places, that are on skyplatforms. Also quite close to the landing point I found an office with a bit more information. Although Mystic Timbers is an adult sim, you should refrain from nakedness at least on the ground level. You can rent some of the houses at Mystic Timbers.

Impressions of Mystic Timbers (1) – around the landing point / the gallery

I decided to postpone a visit to the sky platforms and to explore the ground level first. I started with the gallery and had just a short look inside and at the current exhibition called “Winter and Kazrakk”. I postponed a more detailed visit to the gallery as well.

Impressions of Mystic Timbers (2) – the beach and the main street

I started my visit walking to the beach and I had a look at the 2 small beach houses. Then I walked along the main street of the town. It is quite picturesque and some of the shops are occupied. At the end of the street you reach a lovely park. In it’s center is a pond with some ducks, a swan and a swan boat. And of course there’re several spots to sit and enjoy. Close to the park is also a spot just for photographers where you could pose in front of decorated pieces of a ruin.

Impressions of Mystic Timbers (3) – around the park

At one edge of Mystic Timbers is a farm with all what you expect there, farmers market, a tractor, horses, a stall, a windmill, almost every farm background is available. Along the shore of Mystic Timbers you find various residential houses, from a small hut to a larger manor. As far as I checked none of those are furnished, hence I assume they might be available for rent.

Impressions of Mystic Timbers (4) – around the farm / residential houses

Quite outstanding is the large rotunda. From there you have a nice view on the lighthouse and and to the beach. A large and nicely decorated terrace invites to take a break and to enjoy. Inside of the rotunda is swimming pool that is used for sea plants. You can for sure spend some romantic time in the rotunda.

Impressions of Mystic Timbers (5) – residential house with another beach / the rotunda

What else? I saw the ruin of a gazebo and the chapel with a graveyard. I saw some hidden romantic spots to cuddle. I saw many backdrops for pictures. And I saw what seems to be an artists’ colony with  funny houses (one seems to be an old circus trailer).

Impressions of Mystic Timbers (6) – gazebo ruin / chapel / artists’ colony and a look up to the rotunda

Mystic Timbers is a quite varied sim that offers a bit of everything for photographers and for people who just like to enjoy a lovely picturesque environment. Thank you sol (solking) for providing the sim to the public! I enjoyed my visit and exploring it a lot.

P.S.: When this post was published I talked with sol who told me that actually a group of 9 People own Mystic Timbers. I asked for a list …. and here it is. Mystic Timbers is owned by: Graice (graice2), Soffy Ronwood, Elise Sirnah, Grace Sixpence, Morgan (morganmonroe1), Lofty Lemur, Bee (filipa emor), Silivren (Neida Rae) and sol (solking). Thank you all!

Simploring 2019 (64) Binary Radiation at the Gallery La Serre

11 Jun 2019 Leave a comment

by diomitamaurer in Exploring sims in Second Life Tags: , , , , , , ,

Sunday, June 9th, I visited the exhibition “Binary Radiation” at the gallery La Serre. The gallery La Serre is located at VeGeTaL PLaNeT. I came across across VeGeTaL PLaNeT during my visit to the latest exhibition at La Maison d’Aneli (read Simploring 2019 (56) La Maison d’Aneli in May). VeGeTaL PLaNeT is created by Vroum Short, who was one of the artists presented in May at La Maison d’Aneli.

The exhibition “Binary Radiation” opened on Monday, June 10th and I visited before it opened. Aneli Abeyante, owner of La Maison d’Aneli, had sent an invitation for the opening to me. Aneli is also curating the gallery La Serre.

“Binary Radiation” by Nino Vichan at Gallery La Serre (1)

Binary Radiation is an installation by Nino Vichan. The walls of the gallery are covered with integrated circuits. In the center of the room are two projectors sending light beams to the opposite wall. The light beams consist partly of the digits 0 and 1. The silhouettes of humans seem to operate the projectors and they also seem to control a spherical device in each beam that constantly changes it form obviously following fractal rules.

The whole installation is full of light effects and the pictures I took can’t really express what you see when visiting in 3D. You will be caught in a world of 0’s and 1’s, literally diving into a binary world, caught by artificial intelligence? In which way you interpret Nino’s work is up to you. I was impressed by the effects and the countless different forms and circuits I could discover only for seconds before they were replaced again. It is also intriguing to take a closer look at the two silhouettes.

“Binary Radiation” by Nino Vichan at Gallery La Serre (2)

Aneli, who was present during my pre-opening visit, told me that Nino is Italian. He’s not only doing installation with light effect but also creates drawings and other forms of art. She gave me two links, one about “Desert Abstract“, a series of abstract images from 2014 that Nino made inspired by a visit to Nevada. The other link shows some of Nino’s drawings that were exhibited in Second Life in 2012.

“Binary Radiation” by Nino Vichan at Gallery La Serre (3)

Aneli also told me that she is going to move her “La Maison d’Aneli” to VeGeTaL PLaNeT. The first exhibition there will be opened mid of July.

Thank you Nino for this great and inspiring installation. I enjoyed my visit a lot.
Thank you Vroum for providing the gallery La Serre and thank you Aneli for curating the gallery.

Diary 2019 (81) June 1st – Kinkploring Saturday

10 Jun 2019 1 Comment

by diomitamaurer in Diary Tags: , , , , ,

I went on another simploring tour Saturday, June 1st, in the later afternoon. At night I grabbed the newest group gift at “Nice but Naughty”. It’s a lounger, that offers some kinky animation, but it is also great just as a lounger. I placed one opposed to our main house at home. Then I went to Heavy Bondage Club for a while and had some chats there, but most of the time I read profiles – and that reminded me of my “kinkploring” list, where I make notes about kinky places to have a look at later. The first place I visited was the homeplace of a domme. I had grabbed the LM from her profile a while ago. Homeplaces to tell a lot about a person or community, about their kinks and passions.

June 1st: Diomita at home enjoying the new lounger (upper left) / Diomita at Heavy Bondage Club (lower left) / Kinkploring a homeplace (upper and lower right)

The next place I visited was the House of Sensations. I saw the landmark in the profile of a domme named Devi while I was at Heavy Bondage Club that night. The landmark led me to a sky platform and I saw that Devi was on the ground. I went down to the ground and was quite surprised seeing a stylish manor, nicely decorated outside. I rang the bell but none opened the door and after a while I peeked in. Devi was on the 2nd floor but obviously absent. And there was Essanem Spark but she was absent as well.

June 1st: Impressions of the “House of Sensations” (1)

Devi logged off and Essanem woke up and said hello to me. She turned out to be very nice and she gave me a tour through the manor. It is her place and she told me that she loves to create places. The manor is really built with love for the detail and the kinky stuff is well hidden in furniture and not seen on the first glance. Essa took me also back to the platform where I landed first and gave me a tour through the castle up there, which is really humongous. You can easily get lost in it. I had my problems following Essa and got lost twice during the tour.

Finally Essa showed me her beach house. She invited me to the House of Sensations group and allowed me to return. I look forward taking Jenny to the House of Sensations during my next green light.

Simploring 2019 (63) Blaylock Island, where peaceful waters flow

Following Inara Pey’s blogpost “The waters of Blaylock Island in Second Life” I visited Blaylock Island, where peaceful water flow. This moderate homestead is owned and designed by Jaccy (Jaccaranda Jael) with the support of Magenta Silverfall and Tira Langur (Tira Yalin).

Blaylock Island overview / around the landing point

Close to the landing point is an inviting sign: “Welcome dear visitor. Everybody is welcome to explore our sim. Find our sealgroup near the ocean, wander trough the rainforest up to the hill, take a boat to feel the swamp … just have a great day. greetings Jaccy, Magy and Tira”

Impressions of Blaylock Island (1)

Blaylock Island has a beautiful and varied design. Close and around the landing point you can enjoy the view on the sea of watch seals and seagulls. If you turn and look to the other side, there’re tall rocks with quite some waterfalls and a lot of vegetation – a rainforest.

Impressions of Blaylock Island (2)

The rainforest is fun to explore. I climbed up the stairs to one mountain, from where a zip line leads back to the beach and of course I tried the ride. I also found a rope that you can use to cross a bay. That was fun, although I really wasn’t dressed for it, but Second Life allows that *winks*
Of course it rains in the rainforest but there’re enough places to retreat under a roof or a rock and to sit dry and cosy. Apropos sitting, there are innumberable places to sit and cuddle at Baylock Island.

Impressions of Blaylock Island (3)

The two houses and the two houseboats are furnished and decorated with love for the detail. I saw no private and had a look inside. At several spots you can take a boat and use it to explore the Baylock Island by boat, getting a different view.

Impressions of Blaylock Island (4)

Blaylock Island is a perfect place to retreat and enjoy the beauty of Second Life, the nature and the peace. I like the design. Thank you Jaccy, Magy and Tira for creating and providing this magic place to the public

Simploring 2019 (62) Deva Westland’s Galerie Des Beaux-Arts

I picked a landmark from scoop.it SL Destinations for my simploring tour on Tuesday, May28th – Deva Westland’s Galerie Des Beaux-Arts.

“Flights of Fantasy” at Deva Westland’s Galerie Des Beaux-Arts

Deva Westland’s Galerie Des Beaux-Arts (or shorter Deva’s GdBA) is located in a full region on mainland named Gerstle. It is housed in a large manor that looks like a museum. The rooms ar quite large. On the first floor there’re several rooms, the second floor is just one big room, that is used also for events and dancing.

Deva Westland’s Galerie Des Beaux-Arts: The Sirens – Jaz (Jessamine2108) / Wings- Saz Ninetails / Introduction “Flights of Fantasy” / Airship Pirate – SeleneLily Galicia

The art at Deva’s GdBA changes every 3months. The latest exhibition was opened on Sunday 26th May and is titled “Flights of Fantasy”. It features 22 pictures from 19 different artists: Leo Beverly (Leonorah Beverly), Razor Cure, SeleneLily Galicia, Gidgy (Gidgette Adagio), AmandaSue Hallison, Jaz (Jessamine2108), Wynn Klaar, Broderick Logan (brodericklogan), Ena Logan (enaroane), Tralala Loordes, Skye McLeod Fairywren (Skye Fairywren), Saz Ninetails, Doyle Slen (beastmcstien), Ulf Winterwolf (ulfnir winterwolf), Liz Winterstorm (tinliz), Petrushka Petrov, Rya Santana (smalldoll), Clive Yardley and Deva Westland herself.

Deva Westland’s Galerie Des Beaux-Arts: Ice Is The Color – Doyle Slen (beastmcstien) / We elvish types… – Skye McLeod Fairywren (Skye Fairywren) / Whales – Clive Yardley / Flight of Silence – Liz Winterstorm (tinliz)

“Welcome to Second Life … where you can grow wings and fly, where your legs can disappear in place of a tail. This is the place you can let your fantasies run, of fly free! This is the place where our only limitation is our imagination!” … is written on one wall of the the first room when you enter Deva’s GdBA and the current exhibition “Flights of Fantasy”

Deva Westland’s Galerie Des Beaux-Arts: Drone- Tralala Loordes / The Monolithic – Razor Cure / Futureproof – Ulf Winterwolf (ulfnir winterwolf) / From the Soil – Gidgy (Gidgette Adagio)

Of course all exhibited pictures are about fantasy. Each picture is presented with enough room, so you can step back and fully look at it. Next to each picture is a plate with the artitst name that contains a notecard with information about the artist, the exhibited picture and related links like flickr streams. Mainly Deva has written these notecards herself, some are written by the artists.

Deva Westland’s Galerie Des Beaux-Arts: Stay lost with you – Ena Logan (enaroane) / The Power Of Books – Leo Beverly (Leonorah Beverly) / In The End – AmandaSue Hallison / In the dance of magic – Deva Westland

I didn’t come across any of these artists, maybe because I follow different passions in my Second Life. Nonetheless Deva succeeded to pull me a bit into fantasy worlds and to enjoy the different worlds. In the pictures itself and in the texts about them and about the artists I could feel the passion for fantasy of Deva and the other artists.

Deva Westland’s Galerie Des Beaux-Arts: Time Is A Valuable Thing – Broderick Logan (brodericklogan) / Fallen – Wynn Klaar / Kingdom Come – Petrushka Petrov / Walking through the Dragon’s Realm – Rya Santana (smalldoll)

Close to the entrance are some slideshows titled Winter 2017 or Warmth 2018. I assume these sildeshows show the pictures of former exhibtions at Deva’s GdBA.

Deva Westland’s Galerie Des Beaux-Arts: Nightmares – Deva Westland / more impressions of the gallery and of the current exhibition “Flight of Fantasy”

I enjoyed my visit to “Flights of Fantasy”, some pictures warmed my heart. Thank you Deva for curating the Galerie Des Beaux-Arts and for collecting all the information. I strongly recommend to read the notecards while looking at the the pictures as they provide the background or the intentions of the artists. And they provide the related links if you want to see more.

Diary 2019 (80) May 30th / 31st “Alone”

07 Jun 2019 Leave a comment

by diomitamaurer in Diary Tags: , , , , ,

Thursday, May 30th, Jenny was on her way into the Caribbean and I had the day off as it was a holiday where I live. I used my free time for a longer simploring tour. And I was inworld for quite a while staying at Heavy Bondage club mostly. I had several IMs and finally I took control of Emmi (rileylynch) again. I selected some restraints from her wardrobe and locked her.

May 30th – Diomita and Emmi: at Heavy Bondage club and at home with Argi

I spent my whole night with Emmi, chatting and taking a bit more control of her. We will see where it leads to. Later at night, when I was trying on some new clothes at home, Argi came by for a hug and of course she had some good advice for Emmi. Argi is always so protective *grins*
And that’s it about my Thursday night.

And Friday? I used my time alone in the afternoon for another simploring tour. I might do more simploring tours during Jenny’s vacation and in particular while slave Flo is on vacation as well. At night we had our regular Friday night party again.

May 31st – Friday night party: Diomita at home alone (upper left) / Diomita and Emmi dancing (lower left) / Emmi, Jenny, Diomita dancing

As Summer finally is predicted to arrive this weeking in Europe we had “Summer” as the theme for this party. Jenny joined us for an hour. She arrived safe and sound and we could catch up while dancing. Do I need to mention that we had a great time starting our weekend?

Simploring 2019 (61) Killary

For my simploring tour on Tuesday, May 21st, I picked “Killary” from scoop.it SL Destinations. Killary is a moderate homestead owned by Morena Tully. I want to start this simploring tour with the text from the landmark’s description:
“Inspired by the scenic, quiet beauty of Killary Fjord in Western Ireland. No pubs, no Intans, just simple, peaceful, irish nature. Unwind, relax. Take a picture or two. Please keep your clothes on, and don’t harass the sheep!“

I visited Western Ireland myself a few years ago. The rough beauty in combination with the loneliness impressed me. During my visit it was cloudy and rained a bit which caused a very particular atmosphere.

Impressions of Western Ireland … Location of Killary Fjord

Morena’s description fit’s perfectly to what she created within Second Life. There’s almost nothing to explore or discover in Killary at first glance. Looking around at the landing point you see nothing but a meagre rough island, some hills, sheep, water and in the background a church spire. I began hiking and the peace of this place immediately warmed my heart. And there’s something to discover at second glance. There’re the ruins of a chapel and a stall, there’s the stone circle with a tree in the centre on the top of a hill, there’re a few places to sit and inhale the strange beauty of the place, there’re peacefully grazing sheeps, you can even see some ducks swimming.

Impressions of Killary (1) – around the landing point

At one end of Killary sits a lonely man looking out over the water. Morena also added 2 pieces of Bryn Oh, the Wasp Angel and a teddy. Clicking the teddy leads to a machima video of Bryn titled “Gretchen and Teddy“. In her profile you can read why these pieces of art are important for Morena:
“I have such admiration for Bryn Oh, and her work. Things she has created have touched my SL in ways that can’t begin to be be described. She embodies the extreme end of the spectrum of what SL is meant to be, for me.”

Impressions of Killary (2) – the mediating man / Bryn Oh’s teddy and wasp angel

I also discovered 2 chests (I might not have found all of them), which contain questions to think about. I failed giving the right answer but the questions themselves give reason to think. I sat down at a few spots and enjoyed the peace. I think that the secret of Killary is that it is not overlaoded with many buildings or features or activities. The few things to discover and to do stand out way more this way.

Impressions of Killary (3) – enjoying the peace

Morena is in Second Life for over 13 years and she wrote in her profile that Killary might be the last sim she built, her retirement home, simple, minimalist and easy. She added: “Sometimes it’s ok for a place to be… just a place.”
In her profile Morena Tully also wrote why she’s still in Second Life after all these years:
“You would think after all the time I’ve been here, I’d be bored or burned out. It’s true I’ve mostly been there, done that, but each experience is new, every day is a different day, and I never know what will happen…. SL will always have new frontiers … Why would I ever want to leave?”
That fits for me and my SL as well.

Impressions of Killary (4)

Thank you very much for sharing your place with the public, Morena. I enjoyed my visit a lot!
