After the return and release of Gwendi I was not in the right mood to play in Second Life. Mistress was absent during the day and hence I used some free time to make another simploring tour. That distracted me and was fun.
At night I first was alone with at home with Flo who was cleaning the house when I came inworld. With her hands and arms tied up in her armbinder corset she moves the brush and the duster with the pure power of her will – funny to watch! I updated the family calendar and the family clock (removed Gwendi). Then I played one greedy and one skipee with Flo first. As Mistress didn’t show up we while we played, we went to Carnal Intentions next. slave Zephaney joined us there and knelt quietly and obiently at my feet.

Finally Mistress came inworld shortly before flotime. We stayed at Carnal Intentions for a while, we both had private chats with Faye and Irene, then we left and went dancing at Runaround Sue’s Hop and finally went to Dark Butterfly. It was a quiet night, just the right for both of us.

I met Mistress again on Thursday, February 4th, in the afternoon. We made a tour through the clubs while we caught up with our news and had a few private chats with others. We were at Heavy Bondage Club, at Puerto Esclava and at Dark Butterfly.

We stayed quite long at Dark Butterfly as there were quite some new face and hence new profiles to read for us. One of these profile was from Miss Barbara Minx (barbaraswallows). It contained landmarks to her sim named Wild Things and to her fetish club named “Shackle’s“. Both are female only – men will be ejected. We decided to have a look and went to the fetish club “Shackle’s” first. On the upper floor of this club we found some gear, that we hadn’t seen before and Mistress and I tried it out. Mistress had fun with on chair there. It is made for M/f but some of the poses, in particular the solo poses are nice and unisex. While Mistress was occupied with something else, I got the chair on the marketplace and could gift it to her later at home – although I guess it will be mostly me being tied up on it *sighs and winks*.
Anyway we had fun kinkploring and might go back to this club again.

Back home and after quickly trying out the chair, Mistress made me kiss her bum before she had to leave – she would not be inworld at night.

I had a quiet and relaxed night, that started with a skipee with Flo again. We went to Mesmerize DIngeon and to Carnal Intentions afterwards. At Carnal Intentions we had some enertainment as there was a bit of main chat. Faye came by and joined us there.
After Flo had left for bed, I took Faye to Dark Butterfly where we just talked – a nice and relaxed night 🙂

Art in Second Life 2021 (17) Khaos.Part 1 by Cherry Manga and JadeYu Fhang

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

On February 17th I visited La Maison d’Aneli where at night a new exhibition was going to be opened: Khaos.Part 1 by Cherry Manga and JadeYu Fhang.

I came across Cherry Manga’s and JadeYu Fhang’s artwork already a few times and reported about them. Last year I saw “Le Déraciné” by JadeYu Fhang in 2020 (read here) and “Endometriosis” by Cherry Manga (read here). And I visited their art and music place ADreNaLin, that they own together.

Khaos.Part 1 at La Maison d’Aneli is really quite choatic, but in a positive sense. It consists of transparent and solid boxes, geometric object and oversized figures. These figures have in common that parts of them are in the state of disolving into small boxes or pieces. This style is very common for both artista. They like to play with the human figure, to change it and to use it for expressing their art. Most of the figures are static – but some are also moving.

Impressions of “Khaos.Part 1” by Cherry Manga and JadeYu Fhang (1)

When you walk through the boxes, on the transparent floor, you see all boxes moving and it’s hard to focus your view. You discover more figures within the choatic structure of boxes, and the structure is permanently changing. Don’t forget to switch your sound on, the technical, random sounds fit to this installation.

Impressions of “Khaos.Part 1” by Cherry Manga and JadeYu Fhang (2)

I couldn’t make out any specific move, but sometimes when you get close to a figure or step into a hole in the floor (it is transparent), your avatar gets shaken around like a ball, flips up and down, falls into the nothing and gets re-teleported to where the choatic movement began. What I noticed in addition is that you need sufficent time for your visit. The whole installation changes. New figures appear, others vanish. Sometimes there’s a well of small boxes that almost flood parts of the installation, sometimes there’s none. The boxes themselves change, sometimes they are just white, sometimes black, sometimes blac and while and grey.

Impressions of “Khaos.Part 1” by Cherry Manga and JadeYu Fhang (3)

New elements appear and dominate the installation… boxes or long poles .. or parts of the installation begin to rotate. You are admist the chaos! It is a really intriguing piece of art – and it is art that you can only experience in a virtual world like Second Life.

Impressions of “Khaos.Part 1” by Cherry Manga and JadeYu Fhang (4)

I did not find out a lot about the two artists.
JadeYu Fhang is in Second Life to almost 13 years. For another exhibtion she wrote about herself: “Living in Paris, France, i followed the evening classes in academic drawing at Fine Arts School of Paris and was trained at the Applied Arts School of this city.
After these studies I completely stopped all artistic work. My journey is atypical made of multiple experiences. I returned to artistic work when I was able to get rid of all the academic rigidity that had been taught me.
My experience on Second Life since 12 years allows me to continue and improve my work and extend it to 3D.”

Cherry Manga is in Second Life for over 14 years. I couldn’t find anything about Cherry, just that there is an own website where Cherry is characterized as VR-3D Artist (as if I didn’t know that by now *winks*).

Impressions of “Khaos.Part 1” by Cherry Manga and JadeYu Fhang (5)

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 enabling this facinating installation, Aneli. I enjoyed my visit.
Thank you Cherry and JadeYu for your art work.

Diary 2021 (16) February 1st/2nd The return and release of Gwendi

Monday, February 1st, was another quiet day for us in SL. I met with Mistress Jenny in the afternoon and we visited club Domme a Domme, Heavy Bondage Club and Puerto Esclava. Nothing at all happend, just Mistress and me chatting amoung us and a few unsolicited private chats. I even made just one picture (at club Domme a Domme).
My night began very nice as Mistress cared about my addiction and allowed me to lick her. It calmed me and made me feel better. We went shortly to club Domme a Domme again until Flo came inowrld and we returned home for our (almost usual) skipee game with her. Lucy (MissLucyWales) joined us and watched for a while. This time Flo had the best cards and won it. We took Flo and Lucy to Psi’s realm after the game.

February 1st: Mistress Jenny and Diomita at club Domme a Domme and at Psi’s realm with Flo and slave Lucy

As it was not that much going on at Psi’s realm – although it was full – I had the time to take a few pictures of Mistress and I made a quite good portrait picture of her. Well I think it is good, Mistress looks quite in charge on it, determined and strong-willed.

February 1st: Mistress Jenny Maurer

After Flo and Lucy had left for bed, Mistress and I went to Carnal Intentions shortly, just for a few minutes as Mistress had an early start the next day.

Tuesday, February 2nd, Mistress was not inworld during the day. I took the opportunity to visit a gallery and to make a longer simploring tour. That was fun.
At night, when Mistress came inworld, we played a skipee with Flo first. Ann came by and told us that she has had contact with Gwendi and that Gwendi were going to come inworld that night. As happy as we were that Gwendi is alive and doing well, we were also disappointed and confused that we hadn’t heard anything from her all these months. She had been away for more than 5 months and we hadn’t heard anything at all.
After the game we went to Carnal Intentions with Flo, but I couldn’t really focus, still disappointed and feeling strange. Then Gwendi came inworld and showed up at home. No IM, No hello, No “I missed you”, No sorry, No apology. We stayed at Carnal Intentions until flotime and returned home to bring Flo to bed. Gwendi was there with Ann at the landing point. We went seeing her and said hello. Gwendi told us that she had been seriously sick and had not been in the mood to come inworld until the day before.
I unlocked Gwendi’s collar, her cuffs and chastity belt and we said good night to Gwendi and Ann. Mistress had an early start the next day and it was time for her to go to bed.

Simploring 2021 (7) Valium SL – MARFA

16 Feb 2021 Leave a comment

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

For my simploring tour on Tuesday, January 26th, I picked Valium SL – MARFA from scoop.it SL Destinations. The entry led to an entry of Susann Decuir “Neueröffnung: Valium SL- MARFA (Moderat)” (the post is in German). It attracted my immediate attention because of several issues: Firstly I visited often places created and/or owned by Vally Lavender (Valium Lavender), secondly Fred Hamilton, Lotus Mastroianni and Sofie Janic built the sim, and thirdly the published picture reminded me of “Kun-Tei-Ner”, another place that was built by Fred Hamilton (frecoi) and Lotus Mastroianni (read here).

In addition I visited Marfa, Texas, already in Second Life back in 2017 (read here) and had done some research.
Marfa was founded in the early 1880s as a railroad water stop. The town was named “Marfa” at the suggestion of the wife of a railroad executive. The Marfa Army Airfield served as a training facility for several thousand pilots during World War II. It was closed 1945. Marfa has a population of about 2,000 people, hence it is really small.

Impressions of Marfa, Texas (source https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marfa,_Texas)

Today, Marfa is a tourist destination and a major center for Minimalist art. Attractions include Building 98, the Chinati Foundation, artisan shops, historical architecture, a classic Texas town square, modern art installments, art galleries, and the Marfa lights. The city is also 37 miles (60 km) from Prada Marfa, a pop art exhibit, which might be the most photographed and visited site in Marfa. The area around Marfa is known as a cultural center for contemporary artists and artisans. In 1971, minimalist artist Donald Judd moved to Marfa from New York City. Since Judd’s death in 1994, two foundations have worked to maintain his legacy: the Chinati Foundation and Judd Foundation. Every year the Chinati Foundation holds an open house event where artists, collectors, and enthusiasts come from around the world to visit Marfa’s art (Source: wikipedia).

As mentioned above Valium SL – MARFA is built on a full moderate region owned by by Vally Lavender (Valium Lavender). Fred Hamilton, Lotus Mastroiani und Sofie Janic have rebuilt Marfa quite realisitc. You recognize the buildings, the art and the weiredness of this place in Texas, art in the middle of nothing. No wonder that many people visit it nowadays.

Valium SL – MARFA: Bird eye view and orientation map

The landing is admist the town center next to the fire department. If you zoom out, you can see how in the middle of nothing Marfa is located. Close to the landing point is a Motel, a garage and a gas station. And right across the street is one of the largest buildings, the “Empty Chair Gallery”. I visited the gallery first before further exploring Valium SL – MARFA.

Impressions of Valium SL – MARFA (1): around the landing

In the Empty Chair Gallery Vally showcases pictures that she had collected. All pictures are about empty chairs: “I felt that the ’empty chair’ in most cases created the emotion of being lonely, sad, or waiting, and wanting from the observer. They seemed to ask the same question over again and that is “Do you feel what I am feeling about my empty chair?” And often time the chairs instilled a sense of happiness, knowing perhaps, that soon someone would occupy their empty chair.”
The pictures exhibited right now at the Empty Chair Gallery are from Adam Cayden, Cecilia Nansen, D e F o e, Duna Gant, GlitterPrincess Destiny, Key Monk, Loegan Magic, Powder Grau, Samyi Basevi, Sander Sunborne, Shawn Shakespeare, Sunset Theas and Venicio Armin,

Impressions of Valium SL – MARFA (2): The Empty Chair Gallery

After visiting the gallery, I first explored the little town. There’s a lot to discover and I didn’t see all. Close to the residential area is a nice flower store and I saw an antiques store, both decorated with love for details. The largest building in town is the countyhouse. It was built fitting the original building in Marfa, Tx.

Impressions of Valium SL – MARFA (3): countyhouse, flower store, antiques store

In the residential area you find several house, some of them were still empty duing my visit but that might have changed in the meanwhile. Between two houses closer to the town I found a nice little court to sit and enjoy. Also quite close to thre residentail area is Thor’s Café & Bar. I recommend that you have a look inside. The decoration is outstanding. I think these little details make Valium SL – MARFA so particular. For example you find a wardrobe in the form of a cactus.

Impressions of Valium SL – MARFA (4): Residential area and Thor’s Café & Bar

The visitors and I assume in particular those who visit the Marfa Lights Festial live in a seperate camp in containers, in tents and caravans. In the center of the site is an event area. really amazing is the the gate to the site has exactly the same form and symbol as in real life. The containers did remind me of “Kun-Tei-Ner” (read here). I didn’t have the time to go into every tent or container but they are furnished and I bet there’s also a lot to see. If you get hungry after all what is to see at Valium SL – MARFA you can take a break at the bbq stand right next between the camp and the Lights building.

Impressions of Valium SL – MARFA (5): containers, tents and caravans and the bbq stand

The “Lights-Building” is another landmark of Marfa, Tx. in RL. It has a pertciluar egg form and daylight just comes through a small gap in the ceiling. The entrance and the exit are built in a waythat avoids any light coming it. Marfa is renown for its art. And you find it spreaded around the town. There’s the renown Prafa store, a care on a concrete box, a large board showing James Dean (I think at least) next to a scaffold in the middle of nothing

Impressions of Valium SL – MARFA (6): Lights building, Prafa and other art

And finally there is art spread on ranch land, many boxes and cubes made of concrete, iglus, and inbetween grazing cattle, quite weired.

Impressions of Valium SL – MARFA (7): Art and cattle, the railroad

I was impressed of my first visit. Fred Hamilton (frecoi), Lotus Mastroiani, Sofie Janic and Vally Lavender (Valium Lavender) created a really outstanding place. I enjoyrd seeing Marfa, Tx. again. In these days and age where you can only travel virtually it was a feast for me. A big thank you to all who were and are involved in realizing Valium SL – MARFA.

Diary 2021 (15) January 30th/31st A quiet and relaxed weekend

Mistress Jenny and I spent two quiet and relaxed hours Suaturday afternoon, January 30th. We went to Puerto Esclava, to Dark Butterfly and to Carnal Intentions. Most of our time we were at Dark Butterfly as there were many people we haven’t seen before and hence it was quite entertaining – and there was some main chat going on to listen to as well.

January 30th: Mistress Jenny and Diomita at Puerto Esclava, Dark Butterfly and Carnal Intentions

Our night began slowly. We first spent half an hour at club Domme a Dome and returned home then for a game of skipee with Flo and Angelique. Angelique was wearing a very nice maid dress when she joined us. She had been modeling for Barbara Reiter-Jewell (Barbara Reiter) and will wear this maid dress when she serves drinks at the opening of a new exhibtion of Barbara. I hope that I can make it to the opening.
After the game we went to Carnal Intentions and we had an entertaining hour together there as there was some main chat going on and we were teased and teased back an “Aunt” there. After Flo and AAngelique had left, Mistress was up for some danger. She locked my arms behind my back and lefft the keys out, then she locked herself and left the keys out and summoned me to club Domme a Domme. Mistress tied to initiate some main cat, but it can’t be forced. She then took me to Puerto Esclava. But we had no success there either and went to bed finally.

Sunday, January 31st, I visited the second part of “American Shot” by Milena Carbone at Nitroglobus Roof Gallery in the morning (read about it here). While I visited I had a private chat with Kitty. She was doing well and enjoyed to wind down in Second Life, at least that morning she hadn’t found any trouble yet. I met Kitty later at the Dairy K Ranch (read about the ranch also here) where she was visiting 971DA (Dana Drezelan). The hucow has a new stall, most probably she wouldn’t fit into her old stall anymore as she got even fatter. 971DA was absent during our visit to her. She can get fatter and milked even when she’s absent *winks*. Kitty and I had fun exchanging about our news and chit-chatting about hucows and the ranch.

January 31st: Diomita and Kitty at Bairy K Ranch visiting 971DA (Dana Drezelan)

Sunday afternoon I spent with Mistress Jenny mostly at cub Domme a Domme just talking and watching. We went home after an hour and met Angelique and Flo, who were playing skipee. When they had finished shortly after we arrived, Angelique had to leave and we just played a greedy with FLo who had to leave also … and it was the time we had to tend to our RL too.

Our night was quite and enjoyable. It started with a really quick skipee. Sometimes the cards are mixed for one, in this case for me. I couldn’t even prevent winning it. We went to Carnal Intentions with Flo in her new outfit and we spent most of the night there with Flo and Faye. We chatted a lot with both. Irene joined us shorty and I unlocked her chastity belt as she told me it was spoiling her fun. We’re not inworld to spoil anyone’s fun. Before Mistress and I went to bed we visited club Domme a Domme again for a bit – hence the picture fore Sunday night begins with us at club Domme a domme and it ends with it.

Art in Scond Life 2021 (16) “Mind the Gap” by Awesome Fallen

14 Feb 2021 Leave a comment

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

I got an invitation for the opening of “Mind the Gap” by Awesome Fallen at the White Pavillon of The Itakos Project and Art Gallery. I went there the other day.

“Mind the Gap” is about “the “difference”, which divides us but which is also a great opportunity for sharing and enrichment.” It concerns all areas of life, “between male and female, between peoples, ethnic groups, religions, where you can observe the differences, feel the disparities, suffer from disagreement.” This dichotomy is “always present in the individual, is possible in every person” – and we should accept it.

“see difference”
“feel disparity”
“find divergence”
“fight depression”
“accept diversity”
(taken from the accompanying notecard)

I did not come across Awesome Fallen so far. She’s in SL for 11 years and her profile does not give away much of her: “…… just another wave in the ocean …….”. Awesome has a flickr page tough with a lot of followers and I can understand why. Every single picture shown at The Itakos Project and Art Gallery is intriguing, invites you to take a closer look and to comprehend what Awsome wants to express or to make up your own story to the picture. As much as “Mind the gap” is about difference between people, even within a single person or even within ourself, it also showcases a broad variety of styles and artistic possibilities of expression.

There’s also a short promo video featuring “Mind the gap” by Awesome Fallen (2 min)

Thank you Akim for providing your space for the art, The Itakos Project and Art Gallery. Thank you Awesome for this great exhibtion.

Diary 2021 (14) January 28th/29th Nauru’s independence

Thursday, January 28th, I met with Mistress in the afternoon. We caught up quickly and went seeing Faye, who was grounded at our island. She was in the house but absent. Mistress and I went to Carnal Intention and after some attempts I succeeded to force-tp Faye to us. slave Lucy (MissLucyWales) joined Mistress, Faye and me. We chatted amoung us mostly for half an hour, then Mistress had to leave early into her RL and Lucy followed her soon after. I stayed with Faye and spent another half hour just talking with her.

January 28th: Mistress Jenny and Diomita at Carnal Intentions with slave Lucy and Faye

I had another relaxed night. Mistress Jenny was not inworld. I played a skipee with Flo, who let me wein *winks*. I took Flo to Dark Butterfly where I spent the night with her, slave Melissa and Faye. slave Melissa danced for me and the other guests. And I played with Fayes restrictions and restraints making her focused on me. Later also a friend of Faye, Gwen Drammons (dstross) sat next to us and teased Faye … well, I guess she was trying to give Faye a pretext to tie her up soon.

I met Mistress Jenny again in the afternoon on Friday, January 29th. We caught up quickly with our news then met Flo and Faye who both were present on our sim. We took the to Psi’s realm where we met Amalia (Amalia Illios). Amalia looked great once again. I just like her appearance as an older vamp. We had fun as also another sub joined us, MicaBurton. I had a short roleplay with her a few weeks ago and Amalia and I teased her until she left. Another (tied up and wrapped in latex) guest sent me two pictures of us. Thank you, Dolly (Jamiee Cloquet). And after Flo and Amalia had left, Mistress Jenny and I went to Carnal Intentions for a bit with Faye before we logged out to tend to our RL.

Oh … and Mistress and I talked about a theme for our Friday night party: “It is Friday again and a particular weekend. 52 years ago our twin island Nauru declared independence. So join us in celebration and wear something in their national colours (look it up: Blue and Yellow) or come as you are to party with us. DJ Virgo is spinning the tunes.”

Nothing more to add, we had fun starting our weekend.

January 29th – Friday night party: Mistress Jenny, Diomita, Flo, Ebony, Faye, Laura (laura00175), Claven (upper row), Della Randt, Starbright Wingtips, Sara (SaraRandall), Zarra Fluffpaw, Claire (maddh4tt3r), Talos (Talosborn), Virgo dressed and topless

Art in Second Life 2021 (15) Ambre Singh Gallery at Noir’Wen City

12 Feb 2021 Leave a comment

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

I was invited for Sunday, January 1th, to attend the opening of another new gallery at Noir’Wen City – The Ambre Singh Gallery. I know Ambre Singh’s art from my visit to her gallery back in July 2020 (read here) and of course I was curious. It seems that Noir’Wen City develops more and more to a colony of artists, besides being an adult place, a vivid big town, a place for fairs and events and for taking pictures.

Ambre told me later that she had abandoned her land and that Noir’Wen City is the new home of her main gallery. As Ambre is a member of the Noir’Wen City team that makes perfectly sense and Ambre selected a fitting spot. The new Ambre Singh Gallery is located right next to the Pink Dildo Museum.

The Ambre Singh Gallery at Noir’Wen City

Right at the entrance into the gallery is a quote of Ambre written on the wall, it’s kind of her motto “Art is my soul masturbation. I do it for myself, but others can watch” … funny and true!
The gallery is located in a large old warehouse and has two floors. The walls are used to showcase Ambre’s pictures – and she made many pictures! On the ground floor are mostly erotic fun pictures. Ambre has a great sense of humor. I guess I grinned all the times when I visited. Oh my god, she has wit!

Ambre Singh’s erotic art with wit

The second floor shows showcases Ambre’s SL pictures featuring herself in different situations and environment, And there’re some of Ambre’s “fake-pictures”, as I named them for myself. She made pictures of herself in the style of other painters, like da Vinci or Salvatore Dali. You recognize the style immediately but of course it is not Dali or da Vinci.

Ambre Singh’s erotic art with wit / Ambre portrayed by Dali and by da Vinci (28)

On the second floor is also an area with a rezzer. with 13 different scences, the “Rumi slideshow” and 9 picture collections. The picture collections consist of 4 picture collections with portraits “Ambre seen by” and 5 picture collection called “Great Painters”. In the “Great Painters” collections Ambre copied the style of other painters and made her own pictures in their style. I rezzed two of them, yet I didn’t know the artists she interpreted. Luckily Ambre provides exceprts from Wikipedia from them. The two painters I saw were William-Adolphe Bourguereau and Herbert James Draper.

Ambre Singh’s Scene Rezzer / Great Painters – William-Adolphe Bourguereau and Herbert James Draper

Most of the 13 scenes in the rezzer area were already shown at Ambre’s old gallery, some are new though. This time I had a look at “Lustiver”, a scene in which Ambre transfers the Gulliver saga in her erotic way with many naked female liliputian SL avatars tieing Gulliver up. Looking at Gulliver’s hard-on, he seems to be enjoying.

Ambre Singh’s “Lustiver”

I also had a look at “Tits stories”, a scene which deals the the fetish of breasts in many different aspects. I still have some more scenes to look at for a next visit.

Ambre Singh’s “Tits stories”

The Rumi-slideshow is a complex artwork in itself, that I saw already at the old gallery. But now Ambre explained a bit more what it is about. Jalāl ad-Dīn Muhammad Rūmī, short Rumi, was a 13th-century Persian Sunni Muslim poet, jurist, Islamic scholar, theologian and Sufi mystic. Rumi’s poems have been widely translated into many languages. Ambre started in 2010 to make pictures illustrating quotes of Rumi. The collection is finished now and contains 100 illustrations that are shown in a slideshow. I admit, Rumi was way ahead of his time, he even had a quote fitting to Second Life and Amber illustrated that very well: “I am not this hair, I am not this skin, I am the soul that lives within”

Ambre Singh’s “The Rumi Slideshow”

Ambre Singh is in Second Life for over 13 years. She writes about herself:
“It is your mind that creates this world”, said Buddha. All you do in SL will subtly change you and others in all worlds. So in my life and art, I thrive to add my spice, beauty and love.
My images tell stories. I set up scenes in SL, or I mix worlds… If the harvest is good, I make an exhibition. Sometimes, I photograph people of character in SL or in studio, trying to express the life and soul of the beings and places.
Colorful or discrete, tender or erotic, sometimes silly, often ironical, my images are never politically correct nor vulgar.“

Last but not least, don’t forget to grab the gift box at the entrance of Ambre Singh’s gallery. It contains two of Ambre’s pictures.
Anything else? Yes – Ambre Singh runs her own website with a lot more information. And she also has a flickr account. Have a look.

Dio’s 13th year in Second Life Feb 11th, 2021

Again another year has flown by way too quickly – today marks my 13th anniversary of joining Second Life. Looking back I’d say not much has changed during the last year. But if I think harder and read back in this blog, quite a lot has happened once again in this past year.

As always my review starts with our home and with the family. We still live on the same island with the same neighbors and we just made minor changes here and there. Just my art collection is growing, I call it my art park.
Our family however has changed. Besides Mistress Jenny, our niece Angelique and myself we had “officially” collared our Kitty and the slaves Flo, cecy, Christin, and Gwendi as of February 11th, 2020.

On November 24th, 2019 we got a message from slave Christin that she has some RL problems to care about and won’t be online for a while. It was the last time we heard from her. We released her on February 29th, 2020. Christin showed up again, yet has cut all contact with us – for what reason ever.
Sadly we also lost contact to our slave cecy (cecysumi). He RL and the non fitting timezones made it hard for her to stay in touch. After we didn’t hear from her for more than 3 months we released her on September 9th, 2020. She hasn’t shown up again so far. Nonetheless she will stay a sub friend and be always welcome, if she makes it back into Second Life.
And there’s slave Gwendi. Missing her since August 23rd, 2020, we shied back from releasing her officially and hoped and waited. Then all of a sudden, Gwendi showed up again a week ago, on February 2nd, 2021. She told us that she was seriously sick and hadn’t been in the mood for Second Life after her recovering. But while we can understand that, we can’t understand that she left not a single sign of life. We are happy that she’s alive, but being that unimportant to leave us without any information simply hurt us – it hurt us too much. I unlocked her collar, the day she returned. Good Luck, Gwendi.

In the first half of 2020 Ebony (Ebony Massey) got closer to us as our sub. She has a strong domme side though for others and has some obligations in her SL. On June 24th, Mistress Jenny and I decided to adopt our big black bytch as our step daughter instead of collaring her as our slave. This way she can continue her multiple obligations in SL, can even live out her domme side, and stay close with us at the same time. And step mums can be cruel …. and of course we will enforce our Cinderella to work for us (or punish her for motivation). Consequently Ebony will be called “Cinders” or “Maurer’s Cinders”.
slave Melissa came to us with the intention to stay a few days, maybe weeks and to escape then to tend to other adventures. She underestimated Mistress and my will and possessiveness and after some more weeks Melissa came to terms with her new situation and finally gave up any plans or thoughts of escape. The effect of the Stockholm syndrome kicked in and she submitted more and more from her own will. On September 9th, 2020 we collared Melissa (MelissaRLV). Melissa is from Italy, and hence we named her Maurer’s schiava (Italian for Maurer’s slave).
In January 2021 Ember (brie4675) approached us. She was seeking a life under control and strict restrictions preferably covered in latex. We had met her before in 2018 and 2019 and played with her for a bit but she retreated again as timezones didn’t seem to fit. Nowadays the fit is better for her, although she’s 5 to 6 hours behind us. Long story short I took control of her on January 3rd, 2021 and Ember became Maurer’s toy. slave toy was with us every day for almost 3 weeks and then left on January 20th.

As of today the our family consists of Mistress Jenny, our niece Angelique, our step-daughter Ebony, our housekeeper, head maid and head slave Flo, our Kitty, slave Melissa. Yet there are more subs and slaves around us, some might get closer and end in our collar, some stay just close sub friends, and others might vanish again like Ember (brie4675). Without any specific order I want to mention Faye (Boy Serenity), Irene (AdlerIrene) and Alessi20.
And I have to mention Ann (TransAnn) here, who became a closer friend of ours. She is a friend of Gwendi and our latex and gear expert.

Several times last year Mistress, Angelique and I had fun as two and as three Angelique’s. Angelique provided her shape and hair and we dressed almost or fully alike and went out. Being in her shoes felt strange but most of all we just enjoyed ourself and the comments we got – who could handle three Angelique’s?

Mistress Jenny and I had several adventures in the course of my last year. We had one longer ongoing roleplay with a domme. Unfortunately this roleplay ended without a proper end as the domme appeared less and less in Second Life. We haven’t seen her for the last 6 months. All of our other attempts to get a vacation or time-out together as subs failed but we won’t give up seeking *winks*. Every play adds to our experience.
I personally had several shorter plays as a sub with other dommes, always with Mistress Jenny’s explicit consent. Mostly she stayed in direct contact with these dommes. Mistress appreciates it as it fosters and strengthens my sub side and with it my submission to her. I don’t report of the joint and personal adventures in our blog, everyone needs at least a bit of confidentiality.

My submission to Mistress Jenny has grown during this last year. I don’t see that change any more. My growing submission and Mistress Jenny’s strengthening position became manifest in my slave collar. The times Mistress allows me to wear my sub collar or even the partnering collar have become short and rare. Mistress Jenny and I still enjoy our journey together and I desire her more than ever. We both enjoy also the green lights, that Mistress grants to me regularly. Having Mistress Jenny at my feet is a particular experience for me and her. I think it helps to keep our relation fresh and healthy. Thank you for owning me, Mistress Jenny, my love, my world.

July 7th and December 13th, 2020: Mistress Jenny and Diomita

 

What else? I kept this blog running another year, with one post every single day:
– one “Enjoying Bondage” picture every month (12 posts)
– one “Backflash”-entry, picking an old post to republish every month (12 posts)
– roughly 85 simploring entries
– roughly 85 Art in Second Life entries
– about 180 diary posts

All of my simploring tours were nice and added a lot to my SL. The last year was particular as I couldn’t travel in RL, so my travels in Second Life became even more valuable for me. Scrolling through the long list I want to mention Serene Footman’s Khodovarika in Summer, his Ubay Island and Kohlmannskuppe, Jade Koltai’s Hotel del Salto, Walsh County and Dya OHare’s sims Dya’s scent of the Caribbean – all places inspired by weired or unknown places in RL, places you’d normally never ever get to in the physcial life.
Then there were the sims that actually were inspired by well known cities and places, like Paris 1900, Midnight in Paris, BKLYN, New Brighton, Dagger Bay Autumn 2020 and Dya OHare’s Dya’s Southern Twilight.
The sims of Fred Hamilton (frecoi) and Lotus Mastroianni A Favela, A Thousand Windows and Summer in the City as well as The Apartments by Paradox Ivory were inspiring as they tried out new concepts of sim design, very well made.

I enjoyed lovely sims, places that were designed to create an environment to relax and chill out, little paradises. Representative for these sims I want to mention The Getaway – Nutmeg, Silent Melody, Carolina 2020, Dream Village, Boulder, Still Waters, Northern Shore – Skärgården in Summer 2020 and Ruegen.

I also visited adult places that are not only focused on sex but offer a nice environment in addition, more stylish places. Also just respresentativ I want to mention Opium Beach and music hall, Paracosm, Oblivion and Bellefleurs.

Last year I began to split my simploring series into “simploring” and “Art in Second Life”, although the boundaries between the two often overlap. Noir’wen City is such a place. It has adult aspects, it is a big city and it is a place for artists to exhibit. Just lately I visited the Art Galerie HaXue there.
I think I covered all joint exhibitions at La Maison d’Aneli last year. The last entry was bout the exhibtion of Jan/Feb 2021 (read here) The reports about these exhibtions are always quite some work as many artists participate and as I have to do some research to report about their work. But it is always also fun and it is exciting to see how Second Life and virtual art, that is only possible in such a digital environment, gain more and more attention.
I discovered the Hannington Art Foundation and reported about quite some exhibtions there, like Hexagonia by Amita Duranjaya, little boxes by Etamae or Elusive Reality by Gem Preiz.
I visited quite often the new DixMix Gallery which also has changing exhibitions of different artists. To name just a few I saw Silence by Theda Tammas, Geomorphism by Moki Yuitza, Barock by Caly Applewhyte and Charly Keeley-Keating’s Autumns Glow.

And of course I also visited some galleries owned and curated by the artists themselves like the SUBCUTAN Art Gallery and Multimedia Centre by Sophie de Saint Phalle (read here), Art Gallery Rill’Arts by Nils Urqhart (read here), the Fractal Insanity gallery by Milly Sharple (read here) or the VeGeTaL PLaNeT Gallery by Vroum Short (read here).
Last but not least I think I covered all of Cica Ghost’s lovely art installations, that always conjured a smile in my face, even when thinking back to Monsters, Elephants, Summertime or Another Fairy Tale.

My simploring tours and art in Second Life are a nice and important counterbalance to my kinky second life within my family and friends.
What is missing in this review of the last year? Yes a picture of myself to document the change of my avatar. I grew a bit older and I played a little bit with my hairstyle. The right picture shows my “Corona”-style, less volume, easier to cut.

What a year again! I’m still happy and I enjoy the journey at the side of my beloved partner and Mistress Jenny. We both as well as the core members of our little family are embedded in a great community of friends, we know some of them way over a decade now, some for several years and some are new friends of ours. Even if not mentioned by name in this anniversary blog post, these friends do mean a lot to me and to us. SL is first of all about people and it’s you all who keep my and our SL enjoyable and exciting! It was a great 13th year in Second Life and I look forward to the 14th!
Love from Diomita

Monday, January 25th, Mistress was not inworld during the day. I made the best of it and went visiting a gallery in the later afternoon. Mistress and I started our night with a skipee together with Flo. I was fun, as it was a close game. We went to Carnal Intentions with Flo and watch people and chatted amoung us. Too bad that were was no floor show that night. Flo left early and soon after slave Lucy (MissLucyWales) and slave Irene (AdlerIrene) took Flo’s place. We had a relaxed night, but Mistress had to leave early as she had to get up early and slave Lucy went off early as well.

I went to Dark Butterfly and summoned slave Irene to me. She had to wear nothing but a hood. I enjoyed having her at my feet yet I could sense she was struggling and torn between serving me and following her other passion as a dominatrix. Faye came by as well and I had her kneel at my side. And when slave Irene left for bed, Faye and I had a short time together and just talked. Faye is getting closer to us and pleased me.

Tuesday, January 26th, was a bit like Monday. Mistress was not around during the day and once again I took the opportunity for an extended simploring tour in the later afternoon. It was fun and sorting pictures and writing kept me busy. I had faye in IM while I was simploring and she sent a new profile picture of her to me. It’s nice hence I share it here

January 26th: Faye (Boy Serenity)

At night Mistress and I were alone first and we went to Carnal Intentions where we caught up and chilled. When Flo came inworld we returned home and played a skipee. It became a long game that Mistress Jenny won in the end. There was not much time left and we went to Psi’s realm. It was full yet more or less Stand&Model and not that much to see. After Flo had left, Mistress and I roamed a bit, stayed a while at Heavy Bondage Club, then Carnal Intentions again and finally spend a few minutes at Dark Butterfly. We had a quiet and relaxed night.

Wednesday, January 27th, Mistress and I went to Carnal Intentions in the afternoon where catching up with our news. Mistress and I had several private chats. And Faye (Boy Serenity) was present with her bondage friend Cupcake (Dragony Darkfury) whp she had wrapped up in latex.We had a reaxed and good time. Before Mistress had to leave taht afternoon she allowed me to lick her and to get my regular fix because she wouldn’t be present at night.

I had a nice night although I missed Mistress. I first played a skipee with Flo and then took her with me to Carnal Intentions. Flo and I chatted and watched people. Then first Faye and laer slave Irene joined us and I began restricting and restraining both.

After slave Flo had left I began to tighten Fayes and slave Irene’s restraints. Moreover I took Irene’s dress off and put Irene into a hood and a chastity belt. I had fun teasing both in private chats. And they were focused on be, firstly by the anavision hud and secondly as I was their only private chat and talking was a bit hard for both *winks*.
It became late for me….

I unlocked slave Irene, I just kept her chastitied. I allowed her to roam and she may even invite her subbies, but the chastity belt stays on. I took Faye with me to our house. She will stay completely locked and grounded on our island. She might get some time to explore it. Then I finally went to bed.
