Christmas at Baba
Christmas has come at Yakitori shop Kikyou.
At a Yakitori shop in front of a public bath next to a tramline, there are Christmas decorations and illuminations. Also there are square wooden bench and a large cat sofa they have been there since the opening. There is also a metal barrel bath in front of a public bath house.
Such a big variations in the decoration rather provides a kind of warm feeling different from a well-organized ones under a simple theme. Thank you Kazumi!

UWA 3D Arts Final
The UWA Art Challenge that lasted six years celebrated the final event this time. There were more than 100 artists from all over the world for the 3D arts and machinima. The pool for the awards is more than L$500,000 every time, which was the maximum scale I ever know in SL. The awarding ceremony was held on Dec. 13 and I was invited as a member of the judging panel according to the result of the audience participating event last year.
Until the last time, I was guessing which one will be evaluated by the judges, but this year I was free from such speculation and able to pick ones that I like, so felt comfortable. But it might be shame if I was far apart from the twenty judges, so I relieved a bit since I did not miss the top three. It is good to watch realistic landscapes or fantastic worlds in SL, but I love to walk inside and shoot pictures freely in 3D arts. This is the grand-prix, The Bridge by Alpha Auer.
This was not included in the top 10, Endless Suspended by Blue Tsuki. Many arts have pose balls or animations installed and it is joy to play around. The 3D arts and Machinima will be presented at UWA for a while.
Jayjay Zifanwe who held many events for six years. Thank you Jayjay for the considerable and excellent works. I will miss your English speech that is rapid but easy to understand for foreigners. He read out more than 50 countries of the artists at a blast, and someone (Haveit ^-^) said, “That could be a song Jayjay, the way you read the countries!” UWA activities in SL will be continued and some contests may be held by FreeWee, but the art challenge that had been held once a month before and once a year recently, now faces the end. This could be another end of another era of SL.
The UWA hall where we were waiting for the announcement while feeling excited. There are four SIMs used but I was heavy on the day and dropped several times, so unfortunately I did not take many pictures. Please see my old articles for the past events in UWA tag in Categories in tle left column.

The same system is applied for Machinima. The note card title should be your name with the words MachinimUWA VIII Audience Event. This takes more time than the 3D arts though…

I participated in this program and got 4th before and top last time, and was invited to be on the panel this time, it means I cannot participate in this time ;; It might not be fair to introduce my favorite arts here, so please visit the site.
