Aly Time

February has been a crazy month for me in that other game we call life. As a result I'm going to be away for a few days to recharge my spirit, without computer access, if I can help it.

It just dawned on me that the SL world is flat. Columbus would have been screwed.

A Second Start

I'm nearly four months old; no longer newbish, but still a far cry from being anybody of consequence. I've befriended a few people, bought more digi-wear than a fashion-driven emperor, and even tried my virtual hand at a bit of design. I find myself at a bit of a crossroads, but that's not quite right. It's not the right metaphor, since it implies a both flat dimensionality to the experience, and that there is, should I choose, a way back to my origin, the place I lived before I ever had a Second Life. But there isn't, is there? I could simply leave, but that's not the same thing. Second Life, due to its sheer interactiveness isn't just a book, movie, or even video game.

I haven't got a direction, and so the currents just pull me. I suspect I'm caugh...

The Other End of the Spectrum

Recently I've mentioned a few stores that are worthy of note not only for the products they carry, but also for the design of the space they use. All of them are highly polished, and despite their contrivance, they feel like places I'd like to visit in Real Life. In fact, they feel like places I have visited in RL. On a whim, I decided to re-check out Unpopular Designs, run by Gabby Lime. Unpop is the origin of both my avi's glasses and my all-time favorite skirt, and I really like the unpredictably eclectic selection of clothes and accessories. While I was there I ran into Gabby, and she pointed me to her other shop, Tacky Shit . Oh wow. Ms. Lime is a master of prim-work, but that's not what makes Tacky Shit amazing. Prim-wise, it's beyond simple. It's the textures that are frightening. Stepping into the building made me feel like stepping into a Neil Gaiman short story. The hand-drawn (scribbled might be a better word) doodles on notebook paper which...
