Simploring 2018 (59) Chouchou

Once again I looked into scoop.it SL Destinations to select a destination for my simploring tour Saturday, July 7th. I choose Chouchou. Actually what I knew before arriving was nothing as the text of the blog, where Chouchou is mentioned is in Japanese.

I was quite surprised about what I saw upon landing at Chochou: a group of sandbacks, one tree, a piano, a ladder leading up into the sky, an old large birdcage – and that’s it. But is was surprsingly well visited. I was not alone, about 10 people were at the homestead sim, that carries a maximum of 20 avatars.
Upon landing you get the offer of taking a cinematic HUD, that will enhance your experience. It adds two large black bars on the top and on the buttom of your screen and changes the way your screen reacts to moving commands. As mentioned in the notecard that cames with it “It takes a little time to get use to it, but once you get the idea, you’ll be in a different world”. Obviously I was not patient enough, I took it off again.

Impressions of Chouchou (Ground level)

Chouchou is a Japanese music duo consisting of vocalist juliet Heberle and pianist arabesque Choche, which is formed in a virtual world, SecondLife to search for new possibilities of music. The homestead sim Chouchou is owned by juliet Heberle. The duo has it’s own website, that looks very professional, has a lot of information, professional videos, connection to itunes, downloads and the possiblity to buy CD’s of Chouchou.
To celebrate Chouchou’s 10th anniversary, Chouchou releases three albums (CD/Digital) “The Best of Chouchou [2007-2017] I – III” on Feb 23rd, 2018. The albums include songs representing their early works to latest works selected mainly by fans voting from 119 songs released in the past 10 years from 2007 to 2017.

Impressions of Chouchou – momento mori

Back to the sim Chouchou. As I mentioned before, there’s not that much to see where you land. You can listen to Chouchou’s music of course! And the place might be used to concerts too. But there’s more to see. The ladder reaching up into the sky serves as a teleport point. I first went visiting the Cathedral in the clouds “memento mori“.
It is a very impressive large cathedral with a long long stairway you have to walk up to enter the cathedral. I changed my windlight settings as the region’s windlight didn’t really show the large dimensions of the cathedral. Instead of an altar there’s a piano. I assume another place for concerts. For this cathedral alone it’s worth visiting Chochou.
From the ladder you can also go to Islamey, which is a Japanese garden, small but beautiful, a showcase of Japanese garden culture, just lovely.

Impressions of Chouchou – Islamey

Again I discovered a new corner of Second Life, a place for a music duo that was formed in this virtual world and is connected strongly to the physcial world. My thanks go to juliet Heberle for providing Chouchou to the public.

Diary 2018 (118) July 6th – slaves and subs on display (II)

Friday afternoon, July 6th, I met with Mistress Jenny. She found a new tool for roleplay, that she showed and tried out with me. It allows a sub to give the superior a piggy back and to walk around. I made one quick picture of it and got it for myself too.

July 6th: Diomita giving Mistress Jenny a piggy pack

Then we went to Psi’s realm visting slave kelly. She was not alone. Madoka (Madoka Kawabata) was with her and teasing our slave. I know Modoka from deviant Art and I had met her inworld only a few times so far. After Mistress Jenny and I had spanked her behind as a welcome, I ordered slave kelly to turn around and to present her behind to Madoka again. I inspected the plug pear, then I handed the remote control to Madoka and offered her to try it out. She did. It might have been the full bladder or the humiliatng situation, just moments later slave kelly peed on the floor and thus made her humiliation even worse herself.

July 6th: Mistress Jenny and Diomita visiting slave kelly and meeting Madoka

We left slave kelly in her pee puddle and invited Madoka over to our home and to the slut platform close to or Stonehaven patio. Gwen and Leana were on display – naked, tied and gagged. Madoka inspected both and Mistress Jenny and I offered Madoka to take one of them with her at a fair rate of 1 Linden$. We talked about both and how they came to us. Gwen and Leana both seemed to be quite uncomfortable with the situation, while Mistress Jenny, Madoka and I had fun.

The afternoon was really full of fun, considering the short time we had online. Mistress and I had to leave for RL, and Mistress couldn’t spent the Friday night party with us. I enjoyed it nonetheless. It’s my regular start into the weekend in both worlds.

Simploring 2018 (58) Diotima, Ocio y Cultura

After my visit to the exhibition “Fractal Chaos Theory by Redi”  I got in contact to Redi (Red Bikcin). She appreciated my report about her exhibition and told me that she also liked the fractals of Gem Preiz, a passion we share. She even made a little book about Gem Preiz, that she provided to me. It attaches to the HUD and shows te work of Gem Preiz along with a text in Spanish. To bad that I don’t understand Spanish at all.

Example pages of LIBRO GEM PREIZ ARTISTAS SL 2 by Red Bikcin

Redi also invited me to see the other parts of Diotima, Ocio y Cultura, the place where her current exhibition is located in a skybox. I visited Diotima, Ocio y Cultura on Tuesday, July 3rd, late night.
Diotima, Ocio y Cultura (Ocio y Cultura is Spanish and means leisure and culture) consists of several buildings, courts and a beach area. There’re two art galleries, a disco, a pub, a small shopping mall with an art shop among others and a grand theatre. From the basements of these buildings you can access the beach. This all pretty much explains the name Ocio y Culture.

Diotima, Ocio y Cultura – overview

Of course I visited the 2 art galleries. The first currently shows an exhibtion by Oceanida called Monster. Ana (oceanida) makes photographs in black and white. Monster shows variations of the title picture in several colours arranged in a way that they mirror to the floor provided in different viewing experience. In a second room the exhibition shows surreal b/w photographs. The room is divided by transparent coloured wall and this visual effect provides a particular focus on the pictures itself.

Impressions of “Monster by Oceanida” at R&D Gallery, Diotima (1)

You can grab a folder with information about the artist close to the entrance to the second room. It contains the poster of the exhibition, a business card from Oceanida, a link to Oceanida’s website and some information about the exhibition, unfortunately that is in Spanish once again, so I couldn’t really read and understand it.

Impressions of “Monster by Oceanida” at R&D Gallery, Diotima (2)

The second art gallery shows the work of Barry Richez, an artist from France. It’s about fractals once again and titeled “Dreams in Space Fractals”. The fractals are displayed on the walls of the 1st and 2nd floor. They are static. On the 2nd floor you find a animated 3D plastique with poofs spreading pigeons and hearts. It is called “Peace and Love”, how fitting.

Impressions of “Dreams in Space Fractals by Barry Richez” at R&D Gallery, Diotima

After visiting the 2 art galleries I had a short walk over to the disco and the “Diotima pub” (I’m pretty sure there’s a typo and it should have been named “Diomita’s pub” *winks*) as well as to the shopping mall with it’s library and art shop. From there you can also acess the beach. I ended my visit of Diotima, Ocio y Cultura with a short look at the grand theatre.

Impressions of Diotima, Ocio y Cultura: Disco (upper left) / Diotima Pub (upper right) / art shop (lower left) / Gran Teatro (lower right)

As I know now Diotima, Ocio y Cultura is owned by Redi (Red Bekcin). It was once founded together with someone else, hence the name of the owning Group “Red&Danni”. Thank you for providing your space for the art as well as for leisure. Too bad for me that it seems to be most for a Spanish community.

When I came inworld Wednesday, July 4th, in the later afternoon, I found Leana (Leana Campese) waiting at home. She was a bit away from the keyboard, hence I leashed her and dragged her to our Fetisch Club Chez Maurer. Once she was present again, I took the opportunity to have a longer talk with her about her likes, desires and expectations.

July 4th: Diomita and Leana at Fetisch Club Chez Maurer

We talked about half an hour, then I decided to take her to the slut platform, where I tied her up and restricted her. I pulled her dress off to fully expose her. When she’s around us, why shouldn’t we get our fun with her? And there she hangs around now for some time until Mistress Jenny or I pick her up again, if we don’t forget about her. She certainly will welcome any visit.

July 4th: Leana on display

My night was quite different. Mistress Jenny, Angelique and I played a round of skipee before Angelique left to bed. Then Mistress and I went to club Domme a Domme first. I had a private chat with someone who I met a couple of weeks ago and who we considered for the kind of “vacation” Mistress Jenny is seeking for herself and me. Another domme to who she and I could submit for a night every once in a while to reload our batteries and to learn different ways of domination. It turned out that we could meet this domme later the same night. We went home and had a chat with slave Flo who is still busy setting up and getting familiar with her new meshbody and the fitting clothes.

July 4th at home: Mistress Jenny, Diomita and slave Flo

After slave Flo was to bed, Mistress and I played a round of Yahtzee and then we went to start our new secret adventure. Of course I made pictures but I won’t publish them here due to discretion reasons. It became late ….

When I came inworld Thursday night, July 5th, slave Flo, Gwen and later Angelique were at home, slave kelly was still hanging around at Psi’s. I decided to take Gwen to the slut platform and to display her there, tied up and naked and just next to Leana.

July 5th: Gwen on display

When I was done with that and satisfied with the view, I went to Psi’s with slave Flo and Angelique and visited slave kelly. With her exposed behind she’s a real eye candy there and does attract some attention …. and spanks *winks*. Later Mistress Jenny joined us there at Psi’s realm.

July 5th: slave kelly on display

The rest of Thursday night was relaxed, Mistress Jenny and I played a round of Skipee with slave Flo and Angelique, before we went to club Domme a Domme. We met Argi there and once again Argi succeeded in keeping us entertained.

Simploring 2018 (57) Another Planet by Cica Ghost

I became a regular visitor of Cica Ghost installation. I simply like her particular style and her art often is soothing to the soul as while you’re diving deep into the phantasy worlds created by her. This time it is Another Planet.

You arrive on a deserted unreal planet. There’s no vegetation and the rocky ground is structured with patterns simliar to printed integrated circuits. There’re no buildings but a clutter of melted frames and structures that look like leftovers of former buildings that were totally destroyed by an explosion or something like that. Some meteorites hoover over the planet like satellites.

Another Planet by Cica Ghost: at the landing point (upper left) / overview (lower left) / Alien Diomita with other aliens (upper and lower right)

Another planet is inhabited – of course – by aliens. I noticed 2 different forms of one and the same species, two genders perhaps. While the first form stands with bodies that look like pyramid cake made of rusty iron, the other form is larger and lies around. Both dont move. The heads and faces of the aliens are dominated by huge black eyes.

Upon your arrival you can decide to discover Another Planet as a human or as an alien. Cica provides the alien body at the landing point. I first explored as an alien and made a second tour as human. I met Cica herself in her alien form and the time I was visiting Bryn Oh was with her. There are two ways to travel around, either on foot or flying using one of the different planes or flying platforms. When flying you just sit and watch as you can’t steer the plane or platform.

Another Planet by Cica Ghost: Alien Diomita exploring (upper left anr right) / Alien Diomita in the foreground looking at Alien Cica and Bryn Oh (lower left) / another human visitor flying around exploring (lower right)

“Find out if you’re still human, observe yourself from another planet” is the quote Cica Ghost choose for her installation. It is from Benny Bellamacina, who’s a songwriter, musician, poetic humorist and children’s author. Indeed the humans do look as being the strangers, the aliens on Another Planet. And the aliens living on Another Planet seem to watch the strange beings, the human visitors, through their big eyes. Yes, maybe we should look on humans and on our planet from a more distant point to get things right again and to preserve humanity.

More impressions from my visit to Another Planet by Cica Ghost

Cica impressed me once again with her creativity. It was fun exploring Another Planet and to get out from everyday life entering a peaceful fantasy world even within Second Life. Thank you very much, Cica!

Diary 2018 (116) July 3rd – Maurer’s at Puerto Esclava

When I began blogging daily more than 2 years ago, I intended to publish something every day and if it’s just one picture and a short text. It turned out that most of my entries became longer than that either because I had more than one picture that I liked to keep as a memory or because I had simply too much to write into this diary.
Tuesday, July 3rd, was a day, I have not much to report about. In the afternoon I met with Mistress Jenny and she wanted some togetherness with me. She took me to club DeLust and to our surprise we met Angelique there. Mistress Jenny told Angelique to sit with her and ordered me on the kneeling pad to her left. Mistress did that in her quiet and natural way, not one second thinking there would be any talking back. Of course there was no talking back. But she knew exactly how it humiliated me to kneel next to her while she cuddled with our niece Angelique.

July 3rd: Mistress Jenny and Angelique with Diomita at club DeLust

At night I spent the first hour with Gwen and slave Flo caring about technical issues, then Gwen had to leave. Mistress Jenny was late and as she had an early start the other day we, Mistress Jenny, Angelique, slave Flo and I, decided to have one round of skipee while Mistress and I watched tv with one eye following the football match of England at the world Championship. After playing skipee we had some time left and went to Puerto Escalva for a bit, where I took this nice picture of Mistress Jenny, Angelique, slave Flo and myself – Maurer’s at Puerto Esclava.

We went home and Mistress Jenny, Angelique and slave Flo went off to bed. I myself decided to have a simploring tour before I went sleeping. And that’s it for this diary post.

Diary 2018 (115) July 2nd – Hobble dress

Monday, July 2nd, Mistress Jenny and I met once again in the afternoon. slave kelly and Gwen (gwenney) were present. I had left slave kelly locked into a cell at our dungeon after our Friday night party. Gwen was close to our house. First thing we did was showing Gwen how to get to small private prison area of our dungeon. I learned that I’d better keep the doors inside the dungeon unlocked so that the slaves can visit. We picked up slave kelly and went to Mesmerize dungeon where we spent a relaxing hour catching up, chatting and teasing Gwen and slave kelly.

Mistress Jenny and I spent the night with slave kelly. She had to strip, then we took her to KaS and she got a long hobble dress. It took a while to fit her into it and to make it look the way we wanted it. The dress is quite restrictive and can be opened exposing her butt and hence also her big tattoo marking her as our slave and the pear plug. We tied her arms on her back in a way that she can’t hide her exposed behind.
When we were done fitting slave kelly into her new outfit, we went to Mesmerize dungeon once again and later to Heavy Bondage Club. We cared for some attention slapping her butt every once in a while and had fun humiliating her.

We ended our night at Psi’s realm, where we leashed slave kelly in the center of the main room in a position where she can’t hide her exposed butt. And there we left her ….. until we pick her up again.

I had a busy Saturday, June 30th, and my online time was limited. I met with Mistress Jenny in the afternoon just shortly and we went to Heavy Bondage Club and Mesmerize Dungeon. At night we met Angelqiue and slave Flo. slave Flo is still busy with her new meshbody. Now she’s getting some clothes and shoes and updating her gear. She had a technical issue with her meshbody hand, that she couldn’t add anymore. We first cracked some jokes, Mistress Jenny threatened slave Flo with replacing the missing hand by a duster permanently.

June 30th: Mistress Jenny and Diomita at home and danving at Venustus with Angelique and slave Flo

Finally Mistress Jenny and I went to Venustus for a dance and Angelique and slave Flo stayed solving the missing hand issue. Angelique could help slave Flo finally and we all spent an hour dancing at Venustus before it was already time for bed. Mistress Jenny and I retreated to our skybox … (no pictures *winks*)

Sunday, July 1st, Mistress Jenny and I had a another relaxed night. We had a game of skipee with slave Flo. slave slut cecy came inworld and watched us. After hte game, which slave FLo won, we first went to the Lesbian Society and had a look on the newest exhibited pictures that are dealing with the theme “water”. Then we finished our night at club DeLust together with slave slut cecy who danced there for us and all the others again.

Anything else? Yes! Mistress jenny ended my red light and fitted the sub collar instead of the Ehesklavin collar around my neck again. Thank you, Mistress Jenny.

Simploring 2018 (56) The Leviathan Skeleton

For my simploring tour Sunday, July 1st, I picked a destination that I found at scoop.it SL Destinations – The Leviathan Skeleton. The picture at scoop.it caught my attention, I couldn’t read anything about it though as it was in Japanese.
The Leviathan Skeleton, what’s that? I looked up Leviathan at wikipedia:
“Leviathan is a sea monster referenced in the Hebrew Bible in the Book of Job, Psalms, the Book of Isaiah, and the Book of Amos. The word Leviathan has come to refer to any sea monster, and from the early 17th century has also been used of overwhelmingly powerful people or things. In Modern Hebrew, the word now simply means “whale”.”
(excerpt from Wikipedia)

The Leviathan Skeleton

And in Second Life it is what the name expresses, a large skeleton of a sea monster. The Leviathan Skeleton is owned by Governor Linden, hence it is a place provided by Linden Lab. It is located in a sailing area. The skelteon in on a sandbank and a real landmark. On the island you find boards asking you not to click boats when you watch a sailing race from the island.

Impressions of “The Leviathan Skeleton” (1)

The Leviathan Skeleton offers some places to sit. You can also use a swimming ring to relax laying on the water just below the huge sctruture of the skeleton. Or you go and explore the underwater world. There’s a sunken submarine and other sunken ships and there’s fun – like the head of a crocodile.

Impressions of “The Leviathan Skeleton” (2)

What else? You can take picture of course and I took a lot of them as The Leviathan Skeleton is a really unique motive. And og course you can sail. Sailing is on of the most popular passions in Second Life. Govenor Linden offers a free sailing boat to rezz at The Leviathan Skeleton. I tried it and enjoyed a short tour with the sailing boat.

Impressions of “The Leviathan Skeleton” (3)

To sum it up, The Leviathan Skeleton is a great place for a short simploring tour and a great place to take pictures.

Thursday, June 28th, I met with Mistress Jenny in the afternoon. She put me into the reverse straight jacket and then to club Domme a Domme where we caught up with our news. We visited a furntiure shop and later Heavy Bondage Club. Our short time together flew by quickly.

June 28th: Mistress Jenny and Ehesklavin Diomita at Heavy Bondage Club / Diomita at home withe Angelique and gwenney

My night was varied. I was inworld quite early and met with Angelique and gwenney and I took the opportunity to tease Angelique asking about her plastic panties and accidents. gwenney listened very attentionally and confessed that it did excite her strangely. I went into the house and fixed gwenney into a pillory table, that I got at the furniture shop that I visited with Mistress Jenny before. Then I cuddled with Angelique and I got a lovely picture of us.

June 28th: Diomita and Angelique

Angelique had to leave and soon after also gwenney. But slave Flo was inworld in the meanwhile. She’s working on Anne’s “Rubber project”. She told me that some of the gear is just for meshbodies and she shies back from getting one. We talked about the up and downsides of getting a meshbody and played a round of skipee. Then I took slave Flo to the Maitreays shop and she got a meshbody. She’ll be a bit busy getting used to it the next days.

June 28th: slave Flo getting a meshbody

And that’s it about Thursday night.

Friday afternoon, I met with Mistress Jenny in our skybox. She had new latex pants that really look awesome. We caught up a bit before we went down to our house where slave kelly, gwenney and Leana waited for us.

June 29th: Mistress Jenny and Ehesklavin Diomita at home and at Psi’s realm

Mistress Jenny decided to go to Psi’s realm. It was quite full there. I ordered slave kelly to demonstrate how to lick my boots passionately so that gwenney can learn doing it properly. Mistress worked at the texture of her new pants in the meanwhile and she succeeded to make them look even better and she also adjusted the top she selected to wear with the pants. Overall we had a short but relaxing Friday afternoon together.

June 29th at Psi’s realm: Mistress Jenny, Diomita, slave kelly, gwenney and Leana

Friday night we had our party again. Mistress was prevented from joining us by her RL. We had a great start into the weekend and fun as always.
