SL5B - A few more!

In the interests of full disclosure I should tell you that I've had a crush on these Giant Snails since I saw my first at the Burning Man um burning. :) Now I have everything I need to join them!

This is an intriguing exhibit by Maldoror Damone and it gave me a new pet - I haven't introduced him to the cats yet. Don't know how that will go over.

This exhibit is called Grafix Writer Sculpted Canvas. You should understand that everything you see in the pic is moving. Totally mesmerizing - but I'm not sure I'd want to share this person's mind. Exhausting!


I try to end a trip to SL5B with a calming, relaxing exhibit. This one is marvelous - a ritual circle by Ian Pahute.

You have very little time left - try to catch some of this work!

SL5B - Almost Over

A few more sites you should catch before SL5B ends. This one is in SL5B Render and is a Painting Mini Museum . An interesting collection and they've given you different versions of the paintings - I think the artists would approve but what do I know. :)


The next few pics were taken in SL5B Delegoose. It's a sign of my ignorance that I can't figure out what a Delegoose is!

I almost didn't go into this exhibit. The typist behind my av was severely traumatized once when her sister made her go to shop for Barbies in a ToysRUs store. I still have nightmares about being surrounded by walls of pink!

However, I'm glad I braved the colour and went in. This exhibit is for those of us who love to cook. They are giving away a book of French Cook Recipes and you can choose from 11 different languages!


I loved the entrance to this exhibit, mostly because the front of the card quotes one of my favourite poets. :) Inside the exhibit is a painting ....


and the opportunity for you to become the painting. :) Go visit Through the Frame by Boudicca Amat! I'm sure you'll dress better than I did.

A little tired after all that wandering around? I found another nice little park to rest a while.


SL5B is almost over - a lot of people worked very hard on the exhibits. You should go look before it's too late. :)

SL5B - Don't Give Up On It!

I'll admit that I went back to SL5B because I really don't want to sit down and do a long delayed sorting of my inventory. But I'm very glad I did. Went to the Stretch, Rebake, Move and Dwell sims - you really need to go check them out. The following is just a taste!


I think this exhibit is called something like the Undiscovered Florida - but what's important is the Cypress Swamp and Cracker House. Wrath you will love it!

The next pics are from Seasons Alter Wiccan - not only is it quiet and attractive, you can do a private ceremony and make a wish. :)

These last two pics highlight one of my favourite things in SL - which is Steam Punk - I can't do it and there's really so much good stuff out there that there's no point in me trying. But I love exploring it! :)


I know there's been a lot of disappointment about the types of exhibits at SL5B - seems like a lot of them are just trying to sell you something. But some of the others are really neat - it's worth exploring some more just to find them. :)

SL5B Fun!

Lag got me before I could capture the SLURL - but I did write down the name of this installation. Go to SL5B Render and check out the ChangHigh Show of Light, Life and Love. Take a few friends and have your own circus! Note that the poses aren't static - there are more but this should give you an idea. :)

SL5B - part deux




No this isn't SL5B - but I liked the image. The flowers were moving in the gentle breeze and .........never mind.


Sorry I didn't write down my locations - you'll just have to find them yourselves. :) This installation asked me to change my setting to midnight and tp up. I enjoyed being part of the build!


Another installation in the sky - they seemed to be grouped together.


I should have returned my settings to daylight. I'm sure the fact that it was dark was the reason I missed the sim boundary markers and wound up swimming underground. That would be the reason, right? Nobody would have forgotten some warnings would they? Or am I the only one who walks around and gets caught by these things?

I'll try to be more careful on the next trip.

SL5B

I have barely scratched the surface of everything that is included in the SL5B builds. You owe it to yourself, and all the people who have worked so hard, to go visit yourself. In the meantime, a few quick notes.

Crap has done a fabulous job with the Podcasters' exhibit. Makes the subject understandable and appealing. :)


Some exhibits are accessible and enjoyable - such as the Princeton Sculpture Garden. Other exhibits, not so much. :)


I would enjoy this one much more I'm sure if I understood it. The failure is in my limited knowledge - not the artist's work. Frankly the more I looked at the details in it - the less I got. :(
