Full SIM Art

Another art at the 2011 Survey of Hyperformalism, "Recombinants" by Oberon Onmura. Huge spirals are growing up into the sky.

Four spirals are merged into one, separated to two, and fly away in the sky. The mellow motion and colors are easy on the eye.




This one is also substantially large.




Different shapes can be seen by looking up. This is a stage where some pieces are coming out of the four columns and creating something like an egg.




Pieces flying away. It might be frightening if there are falling down.

You Choose

February presentation of LEA Full SIM Art is "You Choose" by Romy Nayar & Ux Hax. The large wooden tree symbolizes the construction of the life of the visitor that branches in many directions. The small pink/white dot is me, so this is huge.

There are many elections on the way that lead to multi-ending, including just to work at office and to go back to sleep.




There may be no goal, but this could be the last one, which I cannot see the meaning. There might be many times in one's life when she wonders if she were not taking this way. This art might depict the life with many branches, but the big difference is that a game can be reset and redo anytime. And I think the life is more beautiful than this (Is that my wish?)




There are many SIMs in LEA area including large arts. This one is next to the above art, one of the 2011 Survey of Hyperformalism, an art work by Selavy Oh. The patterns on many cubes are changing.




The feature of these arts is the size. It is difficult to feel largeness in SL but this art provides a feel of spacious extensity.

Skiing 2

Visited Niseko Annupuri on a ski trip of Baba group. There is a downhill course that has seven gates with time measurement. Some of the gates are set on uphill and cannot pass if the speed is not enough. It is very hard to finish at the first try. After several practice, I finally got below one minutes. The time board shows the best time is at thirties second. There will be more difference by skill than yacht racing.

Like the real ski racing, it is necessary to consider following gates position, otherwise it became impossible to pass next one. Also it is joyful to see that the gate cannot be covered if over speeded.




You will fall down if touching gate or trying too hard maneuver, but it is possible to continue racing after falling. Also you can ski out of the course freely. The free set is only for this SIM, but you can buy wearable type for other ski areas. Although it is very enjoying, but I became dizzy since the scenery turns much quicker than yachting.

Paper Bug

A certain kind of angel came to Baba. It was called 'almost fallen angel'. There are some pieces like a strip of cloth. At first I thought it could be reading lag, but it was somewhat beautiful and could be considered as a kind of veil…




For confirmation, I switched into the wire frame mode and it was fixed. But the wing seemed clapped. The wire frame mode is for creators, but sometimes useful to see the structure by Ctl+Shift+R. All balls with many nice dances have been kindly prepared and managed by Kazumi the owner.




Another different-person-bug. This happened on me suddenly at Baba. I was looking myself from behind but my hip became larger without any notice. Nothing special I did. Don't you think this face is terrible? I have seen some cases but they were a kind of normal faces. I run back to my home and changed the skin and recuperated, but it is rather better to be gray than this.

Perfume 2

The Last Rose by Chic Aeon. One rose emitting fragrance on a devastated street. The buildings with many windows with clear light add some eeriness to this space.
UWA 3D Art Challenge: http://slurl.com/secondlife/UWA/61/134/249




Eifachfilm Vacirca's d-o-o-b flacon (dooby falcon?) Between objects that can be seen as nose, colorful gas is blasting out. Some Japanese language on the strip of paper.




Sweet Success by Charles Hera. This one is nose itself. Two big noses are opposed. I thought the stripes are contour lines, but it may not.




Since I am not using perfume, what I thought was a smelling bottle in old movies. Looking on the internet I found that it was a kind of ammonia. It could have been a custom of ladies to faint soon, but I would not like to inhale ammonia! But it could be nice if there are perfumes to go to dream world and that to come back. I had thought about participating with "Perfume to go and to come", but I did not come up with 3D art to depict it.



The theme for March will be music. An art that expresses yourself musically, without using sound. I am looking forward to seeing them.
