Monday, February 14th, Mistress Jenny and I saw eachother for an hour in the afternoon again. Mistress took me to club Domme a Domme and we chatted while I knelt by her feet. Mistress and I, we both had other IMs too and the time flew by quickly. I enjoyed my time with Mistress and every hour kneeling next to her adds a little bit to my submission to her. At some time a domme friend of Mistress stood next to us and I had to simple remain silent as the good girl who I am *winks*. And that’s it about the afternoon already.

At night Mistress and I first had a game of skipee with Flo, then a game as teams Mistress Jenny and slave Holly against Flo and me. It was quite a relaxed night. After our games it was already Flo’s bedtime and she went off. We tried out the new “Maurer’s Lucky Dice” with slave Holly. She rolled a 6 – The Teaser: “The small lockdown – spend a night nicely tied up at Psi’s realm and wait to be picked up again someday.”

Hence we went to Psi’s realm and I tied slave Holly up there, then offered Mistress Jenny a seat. She took it ….. and I felt her above me for the rest of the night until we returned home, leaving slave Holly helplessly tied up to enjoy whatever happens at Psi’s until we pick her up again.

After Mistress Jenny had left to bed I stayed inworld a bit longer among other things I wrote for the diary. slave Holly was still at Psi’s and finished her – now belated – rez day present for our Flo. I knew about the idea and I will share Holly’s present here for our Flo.

Tuesday, February 15th, I met with Mistress Jenny in the afternoon. We frist caught up with our mutual news at home, then Mistress Jenny took me to club Domme a Domme where I could kneel at her side while we were talking or just watching. I enjoy these times of nearness to Mistress a lot. We don’t talk all the time, sometimes I simple look at her and my mind begins to wander, or I take pictures, or I read profiles and when we’re not talking I try to be always attentive. We went to club DeLust next. At least for me it was another intense time with Mistress Jenny. And each time my submission to Mistress Jenny is growing a little bit, not that you could measure it in percent or per mill, but I can feel how it adds up constantly.

Mistress had a few interruptions that afternoon but I hardly noticed them. When she was sure to be with me, Mistress took me to our loft skybox, she stripped and she allowed me to get my fix. Getting my fix is a ritual, of course it is something that happens in my mind as we can’t taste and feel the pixel. Nonetheless I feel very near to Mistress Jenny and it has an addictive effect on me – and just as the above time being near to Mistress Jenny, it adds up to my submission to Mistress Jenny. Thank you, Mistress Jenny.

In total we spent 2 hours inworld together, a precious time. Then we returned into our RL’s.

At night we first played a skipee with Flo, then we went to Psi’s realm. We wnated to be there when slave Holly would come inworld. I tied up Flo properly and Mistress and I enjoyed the view while we chatted. When slave Holly came inworld, Flo and slave Holly had a short time together before Flo left to bed. Of course I took a picture of the two. After Flo had left, Mistress made herself comfortable. I become used to it – and it feels right to make Mistress’ life easier. We chatted among us until it was time to return home… we took slave Holly with us back home.

Sunday, March 6th, Nils Urqhart sent a message to me. He has a small exhibition of RL photos, all taken in the French Alps at the Home & Garden Expo at Hope 6.

The Home and Garden Expo is the largest and longest running event of its kind in Second Life. Its main goal is supporting Relay For Life through its fundraising efforts. We strive to educate, entertain and help the people of Second Life to give to an amazing cause. Home and Garden Expo prides itself on championing not only Relay For Life but the visitors, exhibitors, performers and volunteers who make this event so successful.

Nils Urquart’s kiosk at Home & Garden Expo March 2022

All the photos by Nils Urqhart at the Home & Garden Expo are on sale for the benefit of the American Cancer Society (ACS). And if you buy one of the photos in this exhibition for the benefit of the ACS, Nils Urqhart will give you an additional photo from another of his exhibitions!

Nils Urqhart (Paul Maurice in RL) is a French photographer in RL. He takes his photos mainly in French Alps and other French mountains (Vosges, Jura, Bugey, Aubrac…). Nils has a lot of exhibitions in different SL galleries every year. Nils is in SL since December 2007. Since 2010, his photos have been on display year-round at Art gallery Rill’Arts. Nils (or Paul in RL) has an own website where you can purchase his pictures to decorate you RL home.

Nils Urqhart is the creator of the RL Photo Festival Helvellyn, the Helvellyn Christmas Market and the Helvellyn Summer Fair – all three are annual artistic events. He also provided quite a list of potential contact opportunities besides his webpage: Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

I like Nils Urqhart (Paul Maurice) RL pictures. They are kind of a connection element between RL and SL and I have written about his exhibitions in this blog already several times. When Nils asked me to support his engagement for the American Cancer Society by spreading his offer, I agreed spontaneously. The Home & Garden Expo and Nils’ exhibition runs until March 20th, 2022

Saturday, March 12th, I was inworld in the later morning for a short time. I chatted with Kitty, who had got up very early and had fun. And I visited Puerto Esclava.
I returned in the afternoon and spent time at club Domme a Domme. It was quite busy there and I had quite some IM’s. That kept me busy. slave Lily (Lily Bloodrose) came by and decorated me nicely. I uploaded the first part mor Marine Kelley’s film “Ali” into her remvision and had just done that, when Mistress came inworld. I left slave Lily and returned home to meet Mistress. We just caught up with our mutual news and talked a bit, then Mistress had to leave. She would be away for one week, most likely she would not be able to get inworld. One week to wind down a bit, to recover – for both of us. And one week to think about a nice rez day gift for her. Mistress would miss her rez day, March 19th.

After Mistress had logged out I went to Psi’s realm and met slave Lily again.It was full and there was quite something to watch. I stayed for about 20 minutes, then I had to tend to my RL again.

At night I played a skipee with Flo first and when slave Holly came inworld we played another game. slave Holly was sick in RL unfortunately. slave Alessi came by and watched us playing. After the game, Flo went off and I took slave Holly and slave Alessi to Carnal Intentions for a while. We chatted among us, looking for ideas for Mistress’ upcoming rez day. We came up with a few ideas.
Feeling sick, slave Holly went to bed early and I took slave Alessi to club DeLust and we just chatted a bit and watched.

Sunday, March 13th, I was inworld in the afternoon. slave Lily Lily Bloodrose) was present and we visited club Domme a Domme for a bit. Beside that, I worked a bit on the blog and I sorted inventory.

When I came inworld at night, Flo was playing skipee with a guest name Alissia (alissia29). I watched for a bit, then sat down on the trunk opposed to the house and continued sorting. slave Holly came inworld and slave Alessi joined. In the meanwhile Flo had finished her game with Alissia. We talked a bit with out guest, then we played a skipee as teams. Alissia watched and told us a bit of herself while we played but left as the game took long. It was already beyond Flo’s bedtime when she and slave Holly had finally won the game. I took slave Holly, who was still feeling sick, and slave Alessi to Carnal Intentions again for the rest of the night.

Saturday, February 12th, I was inworld in the later morning for a short while. I went to Puerto Esclava and spent about half an hour there and had a short play with a potential sub. My time was limited and I had to tend to my RL again.
In the afternoon I returned to Puerto Esclava and met an old friend there, who returned to Second Life. We had a nice chat. And then we had a visitor at home and I went home to met the visitor, a black domme. Well, I might have my fun with her as she ended at my feet and I took a few pictures, that could be published here .. if … *grins*. Just when I was done with the “domme”, Mistress Jenny came inworld. We spent half an hour together at Carnal Intentions. Not that anything happened, I just knelt at Mistress feet and my mind began to wander. I embraced my position.
When Mistress had to leave, I left as well.

February 12th: Mistress Jenny and Ehesklavin Diomita at Carnal Intentions / Mistress Jenny and Diomita at Heavy Bondage club with Angelique and Flo

At night Mistress Jenny and I played a game of skipee as teams with Flo and Angelique first, actually we played two rounds and everybody was a winner. Mistress jenny and Angelique went to Heavy Bondage Club, I took Flo to the updater for Real Restraints as her gag and blindfold were messed up. I helped her to get a replacement and hopefully she cleaned up her inventory. But after a while it was done .. and we joined Mistress and Angelique at Heavy Bondage club. Shortly later it was already Flo’s bedtime. She left and we moved on to Psi’s ream and summoned Alessi to us, who had come inworld.
We chatted among us, I had a longer chat with Angelique, time flew by quickly.

February 12th: Mistress Jenny and Diomita at Psi’s realm with Angelique and slave Alessi

Anything else? Yes, slave Sara (SarahJadie) left us as her and our online times did not really match as they should. We had expected that and hope that she finds what she is looking for. And our niece Angelique has moved out and lives now in the household of Barbara Reiter-Jewell (Barbara Reiter). She will keep close and can move back home to us anytime, in fact she will keep a spot at our sim.

I had a quiet Sunday with quite some time inworld, yet not that much to report about for the diary. I went visiting a gallery and wrote the report about it, I met a potential sub and locked a nosering on her and restricted her at home. I met an old friend who returned to SL and she showed me her new home and I had some time with Dely (krysbia) and that’s it – and no pictures. Not that I didn’t take any pictures but none is suitable for the diary *winks*.
At night I released the potential sub who wasn’t able to stay longer than 30 minutes alone …. well, not a fit for us. And then Mistress came inworld and we went to club Domme a Domme to catch up with our news. We returned home and played a skipee as teams with Flo and slave Alessi.

February 13th: Mistress Jenny and Ehesklavin Diomita at club Domme a Domme / Flo presents her rez day gifts to Mistress Jenny, Diomita and slave Holly

It was Flo’s 13th rez day anniversary and we went shopping with Flo after the game. Unfortuantely Alessi crashed and didn’t return.
Flo got two nice outfits at Avec toi and she tried them on at home. We enjoyed giving her her rez day spanks afterards – for sure the highlight of the day!

February 13th: Mistress Jenny, Diomita and slave Holly delivering Flo’s rez day spanks / Mistress Jenny and Diomita at Psi’s realm with slave Holly and Kitty

After Flo had left we went to Psi’s realm with slave Holly and we met Kitty there. What a nice surprise! of course we had to chat a lot and had fun. That was a nice end for a great day in Second Life.

Art in Second Life 2022 (25) Apocalypse by Milena Carbone

07 Mar 2022 1 Comment

by diomitamaurer in Art in Second Life Tags: , , , , ,

Saturday, March 5th, when I got the message from Milena about “Fury” (read about “Fury” by Milena Carbone in yesterdays post here), Milena told me about a 3rd exhibition, that opened today Sunday, March 6th, in Dido Haas’ exhibition space at Nitroglobus Roof gallery: “Apocalypse” by Milena Carbone. Milena said: “It is the last of the Tryptich about the war”. The Tryptich consists of Paroxysm (read here) at Milenas own gallery The Carbone Studio, of “Fury” at Calypso Bay (read here) and of “Apocalypse” at Nitroglobus Roof gallery.

The exhibition consists of 6 large pictures that can develop there strength in a particular way at Nitroglobus Roof Gallery with its floor that seems to mirror the pictures. Again Milena wrote an accompanying text to this last part:

Apocalypse

On the seventh day, my fall has stopped, I landed in Apocalypse. Here and now the veil is lifted on what was born underneath the sleepless nights, the vociferations of the madmen of war, the impossibility of fleeing. They are six fragile children, babies, born in subway halls, in cellars, fragile shelters, under the bombs.

Next to each of the 6 pictures is a text dealing with our fears and fury and with the courage we see, with forgiveness and solitude and yes also with hope, You’re invited to see Milena’s art and to read her thoughts.  Again you can get a copy of each picture for free.

Impressions ot “Apocalyse” by Milena Carbone at Nitroglobus Roof gallery

Milena Carbone (mylena1992) is a French artist and is in Second Life since mid 2019. She discovered its artistic potential and since then has devoted all her free time to creation, associating, as in real life, images and texts: “Milena Carbone is a fiction in which, as in any artistic work, biographical and imaginary elements are mixed.” Her creative process is iterative: some of her images inspire her stories and these stories modify the development of the image, which itself transforms the story.
Milena has an own gallery, the Carbone Studio and she has a bookstore @ Noir’Wen City.
Milena has an own website, you can also find her on flickr here and you can read her texts here.

Nitroglobus Roof Gallery is owned and curated by Dido Haas. Thank you, Dido for providing the space for the art and for enabling the exhibition “Apocalypse” by Milena Carbone, which will be open for the public until March 16th.
Thank you Milena for your art. Be assured, many of us feel like you yourself, helpless seeing as that one single man tries to destroy what we thought being a given – freedom and democracy.

Stand for Ukraine! Stand for a free Europe!!

Art in Second Life 2022 (24) Fury by Milena Carbone

Saturday, March 5th, I got another message from Milena: “Hello Diomita, I announce you the opening of my second exhibition about the war in Europe. “FURY” is exhibited at Calypso Bay, a residential area.“

The exhibition consists of 6 large pictures that are shown open air at big walls around a Mediterrean market court. The contrast between these pictures and the peaceful setting couldn’t be bigger. Milena wrote a text to her pictures that I share here:

FURY
A tribute to the defenders of democracy in Ukraine and beyond

Since the beginning of March, the Russian army has been bombing residential areas, schools and hospitals. Why is it doing that ? Because this is all the Russian army knows how to do. It is their ruthless method, and the only one they know to defeat their adversary. As a Western European, I am appalled at the horrible spectacle of the innocent people who live in my part of earth, who share my culture, being crushed by a brainless military machine with an inordinate power.

In Europe, we have diversified and uncensored media and information sources, which bring different angles to the information, including points of view that relay Putin’s policy with benevolence. But this war is decried by all without a single exception. It is indefensible. Its reality is indisputable: the Russian army is summoned by its leaders, hiding it from their people, to kill children, women, and fragile people, with the only aim of tracing a safe path for the military to depose the elected Ukrainian power.

Fury, the second part of my artistic work on the war on my European land, is addressed in particular to the Russians to tell them the love and forgiveness of a European who did not experience the war, who did not attend the fall of the USSR, who, like all those of her generation saw Russia as a land of culture and opportunity for human encounters. I beg them to do everything in their power, with courage, to stop their own damnation before humanity and its courts and our common God.

Impressions of Fury by Milena Carbone

Each of the 6 pictures contains a text in Russian. The translation to French and to English can be obtained in the accompanying notecard. You can get a copy of each picture for free.

Milena Carbone (mylena1992) is a French artist and is in Second Life since mid 2019. She discovered its artistic potential and since then has devoted all her free time to creation, associating, as in real life, images and texts: “Milena Carbone is a fiction in which, as in any artistic work, biographical and imaginary elements are mixed.” Her creative process is iterative: some of her images inspire her stories and these stories modify the development of the image, which itself transforms the story.
Milena has an own gallery, the Carbone Studio and she has a bookstore @ Noir’Wen City.
Milena has an own website, you can also find her on flickr here and you can read her texts here.

Оставь осуждение ради мечтаний –
Quitte ce qui juge pour ce qui rêve – Leave judgement for dreaming

Thank you Milena for your art. Be asured, many of us feel like you yourself, helpless seeing as that one single man tries to destroy what we thought being a given – freedom and democracy.

Stand for Ukraine! Stand for a free Europe!!

Diary 2022 (22) February 11th – Dio’s 14th Rezday inworld

05 Mar 2022 Leave a comment

by diomitamaurer in anniversary blog entries, Diary Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Friday, February 11th, I came inworld in the morning to change into something red. I found an offline Im from slave Holly who congratulated to my rezzday. Holly had a wonderful gift for me. You might have seen it already in this blog here.

Mistress Jenny and I had set the theme for our party to red: “It’s Friday and when it is Friday we have a party at night. We have several reasons to celebrate. Firstly it is Friday and the weekend is ahead, Secondly it is Starbright’s 14th rezzday, Thirdly Valentine’s Day is ahead and Fourthly it is Diomita’s 14th rezzday. Dress in red and show passion or come as you are and enjoy. DJ Virgo is spinning the tunes for us.”
Hence I wanted to change into something red and tempting for Mistress Jenny. I was just finished when Mistress Jenny came inworld. In fact she was inworld before and came home. She hadn’t seen me coming inworld and I didn’t see her inworld as I didn’t expect her. We sat down and talked. Mistress Jenny had written a blogpost for my rezday as well (read here). Thank you, Mistress Jenny. Mistress instructed me to wear my “Ehesklavin” tag for the rest of the day. Then she had to tend to her RL (and I had to leave as well).

February 11th: Mistress Jenny and Ehesklavin Diomita at home

Friday afternoon I spent 2 hours inworld with Mistress Jenny and slave Holly. Mistress first took me to our loft skybox and allowed me to lick her and to get my fix. She reminded me that her sweet poison caused my downfall and that I am all hers for ever – while my world narrowed more and more licking her, getting my fix and falling a bit deeper.
Drugged as I were Mistress and I went seeing slave Holly. Mistress Jenny took slave Holly and me to her private skybox and ordered slave Holly to lick me to a proper orgasm. Of course slave Holly did a good job and I got my orgasm under Mistress’ supervision. When I was satisfied I had to reward slave Holly. Mistress watched me peeing into slave Holly’s mouth.
What a start into my rezday!
Mistress Jenny took slave Holly and me to club Domme a Domme and to club DeLust. We chatted among us. To be honest I can’t really tell if it was full or not as I had only eyes for Mistress Jenny and slave Holly. Finally we returned home and prepared the dance floor for our party at night.

Friday 11th: Mistress Jenny, Ehesklavin Diomita and slave Holly at home, at club Domme a Domme and at club DeLust

At night we had our Friday night party. And as it was Starry’s and my 14th rez day I put out a picture showing her and myself a few years ago (before we got mesh bodies and heads).

Friday 11th: Starbright Wingtips’ and Diomita’s 14th rezday

The party was great, and quite well visited. We had fun and enjoyed the music and the chat. Another great start into the weekend and a great end of my rez day. And Virgo got enough tips to fully strip. Thank you everybody!

February 11th – Friday Night party: Mistress Jenny, Diomita, Diomita, Flo, slave Holly, slave Alessi, Dely (krysbia), Angelique, Cherry (Elenaslv Serenity) (upper row), Starbright Wingtips, Sara (SaraRandall), Della Randt, Jayson Dakota, Baroness Capelo, Morgie Darkstone, Claven Albatros, Virgo Babii, Virgo Babii (lower row)

Wednesday, February 9th, I met with Mistress Jenny in the afternoon. We went to club Domme a Domme where we caught up with our mutual news while watching people. Mistress had in mind to make a gift for my upcoming rezzday and hence we went window shopping, went to a fair, to AvecToi and to Ricielli’s and we saw quite some potential outfits – just two days left to decide which one to get. After our window shopping it was time to tend to our RL again.

At night I ran a bit late due to RL. Mistress Jenny, Flo and slave Holly had just begun a skipee and they stopped when I arrived. Thank you. We played skipee as teams instead. slave Holly and I had an easy game, too easy- we enjoyed nonetheless. We went to Carnal Intentions after the game and stayed there the rest of the night, mostly talking just among us and watching people. It was a realexed day in Second Life.

February 9th: Mistress Jenny and Diomita at Carnal Intentions with Flo and slave Holly

Thursday, February 10th, Mistress and I went to Heavy Bondage Club in the afternoon. Mistress was wearing a stunning catsuit, very tempting. She asked me if I had decided for an outfit – I had. We went shopping and I got an outfit from AvecToi. Mistress also gifted me a nice latex bra top in different colours at the the shop. It is a top that Mistress is wearing often lately and I was eager to get it for me and I had told Mistress about it. Finally Mistress even got some pants for me that fit to the bra.
We returned to our loft skybox. Mistress wanted me to change into my new pants and bra top in pink. Then we went Puerto Esclava and later to club DeLust until we both needed to tend to our RL again. I got really lovely outfits that afternoon – all set for my rezzday the next day.

And … with every time I spent kneeling at Mistress feet, I can feel my submission for her growing. It is amazing and it doesn’t scare my anymore, I embrace it.

We had another relaxed night. It started with a skipee with Flo and afterwards Mistress and I went to Psi’s realm with Flo, slave Holly and slave Alessi. I was not a pure bondage night, yet I couldn’t refrain from tieing up our slaves at least a bit.

After Flo had left for bed we stayed a bit longer at Psi’s realm, then we returned home to our sun terrace and had slave Holly and slave Alessi worship and spoil our feet. They pleased us once again.

Art in Second Life 2022 (23) La Maison d’Aneli March 2022

03 Mar 2022 1 Comment

by diomitamaurer in Art in Second Life Tags: , , , , , , , ,

On Wednesday, March 2nd, the latest exhibtion at La Maison d’Aneli has been opened. It features the art of Ceakay Ballyhoo, DekabristMouse, Junanuj, Tarozaemon Rossini, Vita Theas, Isabel Hermano and Antoronta.
I visited several times in the days before the offical opening.

Vita Theas used her skybox at La Maison d’Aneli for a space installation on a lower level and for displaying her pictures on the ground and upper level. The space level shows several celestial bodies. I recognized the milkstreet, asteroids and the planet earth. A figure is using the earth to ride on it like on a cannonball.
In the upper level the walls are used to display Vitao Theas’ pictures. There are stairs leading up to 2 places where you can sit and watch from there. Another stair leads to a woman with a dog who looks out of a window. And the pictures? A broad variety of pictures taken within Second Life (I think at least) and processed a little bit, either to monochrome or to blurr or to other effects.

Vita Theas is in Second Life since 2007 and has been a mamager of an art center for a decade. She has varied experiences as a maker of clothes and a builder within Second Life and she spends much time taking pictures these both for her creations and as art projects. As an arist she exhibited at several galleries and she participates in the Second Life Birtday events.
You can see some of her art also on Vita Theas flickr account and inworld at her gallery named “Vita’s camera“.

CK (Ceakay Ballyhoo) is in Second Life since 2008. CK is a SL photographer and watercolour artist. She has done several exhibitons and installations, alone as well as in collaboration with others.
In her skybox at La Maison d’Aneli Ceakay Ballyhoo features her pictures in a classic way along the 4 walls of the box. The pictures show landscapes, houses, and animals. They are all processed to make them look like watercoulour or like drawings and honestly it is hard to say if they are based on RL or SL pictures, yet I assume the base are SL pictures as CK is a SL photographer.

CK (Ceakay Ballyhoo) runs a store with her art on the marketplace named CKB Art, she has a flickr account, an own blog and she has an own gallery with an access to a beach – CK’s Corner.

Isabel Hermano is in Second Life since 2006 and describes herself as painter, digital artist, dancer and creator. She has been fascinated by painting and photography since her childhood. When the digital era started, her passion for working with a PC was growing at the same time. So it was just natural for her to discover her love for editing pics. She leaned by doing, trial and error and by a couple of tutorials. For her “the border between painting and photography is as fluent as between magic and reality”. You can see more of Isabel hermano’s art at her Isa’s Gallery.
She writes in the accompanying notecard “A three years stay in Chile gifted new stimuli and inspiration. I started to see my world with different eyes – the eyes of a painter and photographer“

Isabel Hermano’s skybox at La Maison d’Aneli is about Chile. The exhibition is named “An approach to Chile”.
“An old Chilean myth tells us about the origin of this fascinating country: At the 7th day, when God looked at the world he had created, he found some leftovers like volcanos, glaciers, deserts, jungles, fjords and lakes. So he ordered his angels to throw them altogether beind some huge mountains, later known as the Andes…
Chile with its 4300 km of coastline is gifted with a breathtaking nature, almost all kinds of climate zones, belongs to the safest and richest countries of South America and produces excellent wines. But the true treasure of this country lies in its people and their open bearted kindness and hospitality.
I had the privilege of living there for three years and I fell instantly and deeply in love with Chile! My stay presented me with a whole bunch of inspirations and I’m forever thankful for it.”


Isabel hermano shows 8 displays dedicated to Santigo de Chile, Pablo Neruda, culinaria, Patagonia, Atacama, El Mar, Valpariso and Naturaleza. At each of these 8 display boards you find windows with Isabel’s art – digital art and photographs. It is like a little journey to this beautiful country!

Guille (Antoronta) is in Second life since April 2020. He writes in the accompanying notecard:
“Guille (Antoronta) in SL, is the nickname of Antonio Guillén in RL, he is a doctor in Biology and professor of Natural Sciences in Spain where he works as a professor and as an altruistic independent researcher in different projects related to microbiology, the environment or the astrobiology. For a long time he has claimed to consider knowledge as a whole in which art and science interact, erasing their borders and forming part of the essence of the universe that surrounds us. His gaze focused on the microscopic world opens the doors to beauty on other scales that we do not usually access, and to the very nature of life.”
Guille has won several prizes for her scientific photography and for his educational work. His flickr Water Project gallery is one of the main references to know the beauty and life of microscopic organisms.
In Second Life and together with Kimika Ying he has created a sim to publish the life of all these fascinating beings named “El Universo en una Gota de Agua” (The universe in a drop of water).

At La Maison d’Aneli Guille (Antoronta) exhibited a variety of his pictures that show these microscopic organisms, one more beautiful then the other, all very colourful. Nature is a real treasure! And I can only agree – the art and the science interact and the borders between them can blurr. A nice journey into another world.

Juna (junanuj), “former alter of Tani Thor, after a period of about 3 years in which she dedicated herself to role playing, has as main activity in SL since 2017, that of creating tattoos with the “Juna Artistic Tattoo” brand and from January in 2022 she becomes the sole owner of eBento – The Event -, a fashion event in SL.
Music is also an important element in her virtual life, in fact her affective union with Niovali Serrao led her to also take care of organizing DJ Nio’s musical evenings.”

Juna (junanuj) has a particular passion for landscape photography, and in 2021 Juna returned to taking pictures for purely personal enjoyment: “my approach to SL photography is as instinctual as all the things I do….uno, two shots at most, to try to capture that elusive emotion. My shots are worked with Photoshop, but trying to never distort the essence of the photo itself …“

In Juna’s skybox at La Maison d’Aneli the pictures are arranged like under a dome. Due to the shape of a dome no picture is rectangular and you have to adjust your camera to see them without distortion. Many pictures have coloured lines or beams. What is irritating at the first glance makes them intriguing on the second glance.

Besides the tattoo store (inworld and on the marketplace) Juna has a flickr page, a blog and owns the eBENTO event.

Mouse (dekabristmouse) is a Russian art student who likes furry, space and fallout themes. Mouse is in Second Life since 2001. He runs a shop for space, ground and water vehicles and for furry mods – Dekabrist’s main shop and home. At his skybox at La Maison d’Aneli he displays 31 pictures, named Day1 to Day 31, all realized in Oktober 2021. Each drawing shows a Furry, a mouse or another fantasy being and is named accordingling – or shows a partiuclar situation and the situation give the name for the drawing. All characters are  created by himself.

Tarozaemon Rossini is in Second Life since 2007. He categorizes himself as an alien from outerspace, who landed in Second Life to do research about mankind. “In reality it seems that his main mission is to show off here and there his trademark dreadlocks. Occasionally, when he has time to kill, he improvised himself as an artist and architect.” And he’s not that bad in pretending to be an artist and architect. Tarozaemon Rossini’s faible for fractals can be seen in his skybox at La Maison d’Aneli.

Fractal art is usually created with the assistance of a computer. Right where you enter his skybox there’s a slide show in which Taro explains the basics of fractals from the scratch, from a simple line, to a complex fractal based on iteration of formulas which combine real and imaginary numbers. He furtheron lays out the different types of fractals. Knowing what’s behind the exhibited fractals they become even more fascinating.

I personally am a fan of fractal art and in Second Life are quite some artists with a passion for this kind of art. Tarozaemon Rossini pretends also to be an architect. Hence he built something particular to showcase his fractal art. Most of the pictures are levitating and rotate permanently . In the center of his skybox is a huge 3D object, a flower (also fractal art?) and there’s an extra floor, from which you can firstly see the blossom of the flower and secondly can have a clower look at some non rotating fractals at the walls of his skybox.
You can see more of Taro’s fractal art at his flickr page.

La Maison d’Aneli is owned by Aneli Abeyante. Through her gallery she brings together all forms of creativity in RL and SL and the featured artists come from around the globe. Aneli’s intention is to “put her gallery in the service of artists, so that the world can be better, exchanges and meetings probably contribute even though it seems to be particles.”
Thank you for another great joined exhibtion, Aneli. As always I enjoyed my visit and writing about it. It inspired me.

Diary 2022 (20a) A day in the life of slave Holly (Tuesday 8th February 2022)

02 Mar 2022 Leave a comment

Every day with my Mistresses is different, Mistress Jenny suggested I write something for Mistresses’ Blog from a slave’s perspective.
I start my day as I do now in my cell, a cell perhaps – my home. It is time to think or as I do today time to write. I complete my weekly tasks for Mistress Diomita and when my cell unlocks, I stumble to the headquarters with my restricted vision to complete my cleaning chores. My vision isn’t so restricted as to make cleaning difficult, but I stumble around the house a little. My restricted vision makes the routine a ritual I think of my Mistresses as I clean. I always enjoy cleaning the slideshow in the headquarters it gives me an insight in Mistresses’ history and sometimes gives Mistresses an insight into my mind. Sometimes it is much more difficult, but it reminds me of my Mistresses.

February 8th: slave Holly dusting the slideshow

I’m joined by sis Alessi and we clean the together before I find my way back to my cell to log out and return to RL. I return to SL in the early evening, sometimes I’m lucky enough to see Mistress Jenny or Mistress Diomita on-line. Today I see there is a visitor to the sim – I whisper a hello but the do not notice me. I wait my cell to unlock – contemplating the evening and next few days ahead – I complete task of my own before again checking on the headquarters and completing my chores – Sisyphus.

When I return in the evening Mistress Jenny and Mistress Diomita are on-line and are playing Skipee with sis Flo and sis Alessi. I find my way to them and kneel between Mistress Jenny and Mistress Diomita watching the game play out. Mistress Jenny and Alessi win easily! I bow down to great each Mistress in turn, kissing Mistress’ heels and then offering Mistress Jenny my leash.
Flo departs for the evening and Mistresses decide to take us to Psi’s realm. It is now that my mind starts to race a little as Mistress Diomita adds my restraints and Mistresses decide on my fate for the evening. Mistress Diomita has all the control as she decides to chain me. For a little while I follow Mistress Diomita as she moves around the room – teasing the range of my vision a little – I have no choice but to follow her with my gaze.

Mistress chains Alessi next to me and we spend out time chatting about our day a little. Mistress Jenny and Mistress Diomita changing places occasionally to each take turns at spanking our butts to ensure we remain attentive. I think it is the first time Alessi has had this pleasure. I enjoy that Mistresses make their mark – in time it will fade to be and be a blank canvas again ready to be reminded of my place.

Fabruary 8th: slave Holly with Mistresses and slave Alessi

I don’t know how busy Psi’s is – how many people are watching us decorating Mistress Jenny and Mistress Diomita (I realise afterwards that I could have looked as names and people are not blocked but I don’t even thing to look.) my focus is on them.

I talk a little in IM with Mistress Jenny about upcoming anniversaries (no spoilers Mistress Diomita) and we have a quiet night chatting until it is time for Mistresses to retire.

Now my mind races again as Mistress Diomita takes me to another part of the room – does Mistress have other plans for me tonight??? I wait nervously for a moment before we teleport home.

February 8th: slave Holly and Mistress Diomita

Another day will bring another experience… more from slave Holly sometime soon x x x
