Lily of the Valley - the raw, imperfect cut

8/4/2012

Lily of the Valley is the latest Salome-Grace mash up. I tried (hopelessly) all day to make a "perfect" cut of this track, but after many hours I just learned to love my imperfections. I hope you don't mind them hanging around. Download: Lily of the Valley

NOTE: Lyrics are by Salome Strangelove, and I am sure she'll post them to her site - eventually. (But beware, she changes words randomly.)

SL9B Celebration Starts Tomorrow!

6/17/2012

In just 5 weeks, the organizers of this main SL9B celebration have demonstrated the very essence of what SL means to me : people, place and passion. Do yourself a favor and carve out enough time to see as much as you can and meet the people, pixels and prims - I assure you it is worth it.

I am proud to have the chance to perform on opening day - Monday, June 18th at 5PM SL on the Main Performance Stage lotus (the one you see me eyeing in the photo above) and on Wednesday, June 20th at 6PM SL on the fantastical Cake Stage.

I hope you can join me, but in case you can't there is a vast line up of talented performers to keep you entertained.

A huge thanks to Mister Mariner for the grand unified SL9B performance schedule!

Two AM machinima - we need your votes

11/9/2011

Recently, I got an email from machinimatographer (is that a word?) Chantal Harvey asking for some help to raise awareness about the beautiful machinima she created - Two AM. (Yes, that Two AM)

TWO AM has been accepted in two festivals, I am asking people to vote (much as I resent that). It is as much your film as mine, may I ask for your help?

Atopic Festival has an audience award thing, no subscribing is needed, - clicking the link is enough to vote for it
http://www.dailymotion.com/contest/atopicfestival2011/1?mode=playlist#videoId=xm6xqj TWO AM – and I have lost You

The Bitfilm Festival asks for subscribing, and I dont see many votes coming in at all for TWO AM, so far. :-(

I'm not sure how I feel about Festivals that require voting, but I do know that I'm fond of Chantal's work and especially pleased to be a small part of this work

Goodbye Inside Out Cafe - Tonight Oct 1st 6pm #SL

10/1/2011

This week marks the dissolution of Avendale Estates and my Inside Out Cafe, the place I've loved and called home in Second Life for the last few years.

To mark the occasion, I'm doing one last gig on the shores of Nevi. Please join us at 6pm SL tonight, Oct 1st.

It's a dark affair, come in your best (or worst) mourning attire.

Heron on Holiday

8/1/2011

We're taking a short summer hiatus on Heron Island for the month of August to beat the heat. We should be back the second weekend in September, following the US Labor Day holiday.

In the mean time, I hope to be pulling together Musimmersion (despite my artist block) and if Shannon can get back across the Canadian border, we'll see if we can finish out the Summer Cafe Tour.

See you around the grid!
