Teddy goes to Ladonia

I made this video after a short visit to Ladonia last sunday.
The place was quite hard to find. We almost gave up. The kids were so tired they stayed in the car.
Me and my friends Karin and Morgan walked down to the beach near Kullaberg National Park, Sweden, where the swedish artist Lars Vilks has built the to parts of Ladonia: Nimis and Arx. He started building it in 1980.
Ladonia is also a virtual country. It has about 11 000 citizens.

foal - furioso

I'm experimenting a litle with video in Second Life. Video can be shown on all surfaces. Here the same video is shown on the background and on all the forms the foal is made of. Sound is partly from the video shown ... in the video, and from a website about the wolverine.
The video shown on the objects is the video in the previous post HERE.

From Wirxli Flimflams Perfomances at Gallery urEN lUREN May 25

An incredible number of people/avatars came to the opening of my Gallery urEN lUREN last friday, May 25th! But now, Wirxli , who had two performances on the opening, is an art superstar, so of course people wanted to come. If you wasn't one of the lucky people who saw his performances, here you have a chance to get a litle of the feel that day form these documentaries I have made. The videos are about 4 minutes each, without sound, but the performances went on for 2 hours, with the sim crashing and heavy lag problems included.
Unfortunally, the second perfomance was not finished because Lisa Dapto from Melboure, Austalia, had so much trouble keeping herself in-world, that we had to call it off, but taking it up later, to finish it.
The results of the performances are now a part of the exhibition at Trollhaugen. You can also see the videos there.
So here is:
nOObject #1 - part 1 (first try)

nOObject #1 - part 2

Some pictures of the performance, in case you don't have time to watch the videos:





The pictures are only of nOObject #1.
See Wirxli's own long blogpost on the event here: http://wirxliflimflam.blogspot.com/2007/05/noobjectivity-1.html
where he explaines the idea behind his performance. About nOObject #2 - Ageplay relations - A family Affair... here: http://fwwixliwirxli.blogspot.com/2007/05/noobjectivity-ageplay-relations-family.html
