Home Sweet Home

 

 Nothing much. Just a scene of me at my treehouse home in HV Community, looking out across the water to SunWaterThree.

Announcement: This Saturday at The Science Circle - "Museums" and "Has The Global Pandemic Changed Your View on Others or Society?"

 

"Museums"

Saturday November 6

10 AM to 11 AM SL time 

Which real-life museum do you recommend to others?

This can be a local, national or foreign museum and can be a science, art, history, maritime or open air museum. Is the location exceptional or the architecture of the building? Share it with us.

Which one left an indelible impression on you? Tell us what you found and discovered. Perhaps you can share an image of what impressed you the most. Share the website of the relevant museum with us.

An example of museum development and innovation is the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. The Night Watch “De Nachtwacht by Rembrandt van Rijn” is currently being restored and to inform, educate and share this process with the public, you can get a virtual tour here.

We look forward to your museum!

Reader Submitted: SL Video: "A Blake Sea 360 in Second Life (built by LDPW)"

 

 (Click here if the video fails to play)

 From Erik Mondrain on March 22, "As yet another experiment in virtual cinematography (and as a nice way to relax), here is a leisurely, 360-degree panning shot that I did while floating in Second Life's Blake Sea—with my draw distance cranked up to 600 meters. The EEP Sky preset that I used while filming was [TOR] HORROR - Bloody moon. I also tweaked things a bit in my video editor, mainly in order to reduce color banding and to make the sky feel a little more vibrant, and a little less grim, than the name of that aforementioned preset would suggest. Located in Blake Sea - Hawser: (169/228/21). For more info about the LDPW (Linden Department of Public Works) and about the Blake Sea, check out the description for "escape," the second video in my MFA Thesis series: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMdXU...​ My fox avatar was designed by Liam Roark of Luskwood (https://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Luskwood​) and is sold by Luskwood Creatures.​ And it floats thanks to Conrad Aluveaux's indispensable Swimmer HUD.  Filmed on Linux with the Firestorm Viewer and SimpleScreenRecorder and using a SpaceNavigator 3D Mouse.
