Biography Thea Maiman
*************

Second Life resident, Official Pixelfairy and Nonofficial Photographer.

Thea likes the interesting places, the good live music and the funny friends.
Always curious and wondering, how many creative peoples live here. 
Sometimes she tries to make poses and once she sculpted a pixelpepperoni.
She is here since 04/2008, but no... she is not addicted. :)
Her pictures are (often) music inspired, sarcastic, melancholic, sometimes a bit dark or the opposite all of these. 
Thea's RL avatar lives in Budapest in Hungary. 
Always busy, and sometimes at nights she uses her notebook as a pillow. 

You can see her works:

or if you want to see her pictures in sl, please check it her profilepicks :)

thanks for reading:)

Biography Kylie Sabra 
*************
Kylie Sabra Angel is Curator of The Rose Theatre Galleries since February 2010, winner of the 2012 Avi Choice Award for SL's Favorite Art Gallery. She opened her first private gallery within 30 days of entering Second Life and has been creating ever since.
She says, "The artist creates for herself first and foremost. She follows her own muse. When she seeks to create according to the dictates of others, the art becomes weak, emotionless. Art without emotion is not art."
She sees our world through a unique set of eyes. She weaves color and texture into a tapestry designed to wrap you in emotion. She has been the Curator of The Rose Theatre & Art Galleries since February 2011, and has been an SL artist since she first entered this world more than three years ago. 
You can purchase her work for your RL home at http://fineartamerica.com/art/all/kylie+sabra/all
Kylie is an SL/RL photographer and graphic artist as well as an SL builder and sim designer. Visit her gallery as well as the nine others she curates at The Rose Theatre Galleries.

55 Minuti per il 5o compleanno di Pyramidcafè in craft






video di 55 minuti che riassume il giro "turistico" di venerdì scorso che non siamo riusciti a fare...
Il video anche se lungo è molto interessante perchè riassume la storia per molti versi emozionante delle iniziative di varie persone che hanno collaborato per la condivisione della conoscenza in modo limpido, gratuito ed entusiasta.

E' un peccato che molti non siano più attivi nei mondi virtuali, ma come dico sempre, RL è sempre più importante, ma il loro esempio può stimolare altri a fare cose altrettanto interessanti e belle :)

*************
Biography Talullah Winterwolf
*************
From as far back as I remember I have had a pencil in my hand making pictures and stories on any kind of surface available about the strange goings on in my head :)

These were always almost like a private journal to me and I'd never thought of exhibiting them before Second Life, even though I was trained in Art College in Fashion Design and had my own studio . 
At the minute I'm working in photography , and and have a small vintage fashion outlet.

My inspirations come from many sources, but the common thread is that all my creative works be it fashion, a photograph or a painting is that tells a story in some form or other.
Some of the stories are deeply autobiographical,exploring dreams,childhood memories and feelings, others could be inspired by a chance snippet of conversation, an unintentional image caught in a random photograph, a memory, a line in a song or book...

I have tried to capture those feelings in the images, and in doing so have realised that the very effect of layering the images and textures is suggestive of the way our memories are layered on top of each other and each whole is the sum of many parts.

I hope you enjoy exploring each piece, and thank you for your appreciation!

Biography Daemon Naidoo
*************




Daemon began to sing with passion several years ago, with a real band.
He was known in the various pubs around Rome, until 1994, when he moved to Switzerland. From there it stopped almost completely for several years, until a few years ago when he decided to start over, so ' as a hobby, a hobby that has become increasingly to sing on a daily basis and to open two blogs, one of which he has more than 100000 listeners throughout the world.
The music for him is now becoming more important; with his Performances transmits emotions, sensations, and now most of his spare time is taken up by music.

Un percorso virtuale opensim per il 5o compleanno di PyramidCafè

Compleanno PyramidCafè 11 Gennaio 2013 nei vari metaversi oltre a craft

Questo venerdì ci incontriamo alle 21.30 con partenza dalla sim Pyramidosita cercando di esplorare un po' del metaverso opensim come attività creaTTiva in occasione del V compleanno di Craft (Alle 22.45 inizia poi il festeggiamento in SL presso la sim Solaris).

Le sim che abbiamo scelto per fare questo percorso sono quelle indicate dallo schema di Metropolitana allegato:

STORIA:
1) La mitica sim Born To Learn originariamente costruita sul computer di casa di Junta Kohime, da dove è partito nel 2008 la esperienza di OpenSimita, diversi contributi dei pionieri in mostra temporanea presso Edu3d Sandbox.
2) La sim Pyramidosita costruita nel 2009 per saldare Pyramid ai mondi virtuali opensim, con contenuti tipo i giardini pensili di Babilonia, il tempio egizio ed altre amenità storiche
3) La sim Spirit costruita nel 2011 per accogliere la creatività di chiunque fosse interessato a costruire e sperimentare qualcosa non solo per sè stesso seguendo un po' quello che era lo spirito di Vulcano di SL

CLONELIFE (sponsor dei server su cui girano le sim di Pyramid)
4) La sim Mesh Town su CloneLife dove nel 2012 erano stati invitati tutti a sperimentare le possibilità delle Mesh in opensim grazie anche ai corsi di Salahzar
5) La welcome area di CloneLife creata da gabriele come mondo fantasy 
6) La sim Trio in Clonelife dove c'è una rappresentanza di PyramidCafè

CRAFT
7) La sim Margye Dreams con i notevoli lavori di Carmen Auletta sulla disabilità e la capacità di espressione dei mezzi virtuali
8) Hydra/Opera/UpTown/Metaverse/JessO, varie sim gestite da Licu Rau e Tao Quan, creatori della grid Craft, con freebie, materiale originale liberamente disponibile e ricostruzione di città ed ambientazioni. Su JessO dalle 22 c'è anche un concerto di Tosha Tyran.

SAPERE E CONDIVISIONE
9) Sophia legata ai progetti di condivisione del sapere dell'ormai scomparso Paidos Woodall che aveva una originale concezione "anarchica" dei meccanismi didattici in cui in ogni incontro ognuno è portatore di conoscenza e la rende disponibile agli altri.
10) Mathemagics, legato al progetto di Edu3D, un originale gruppo di lavoro molto tranquillo e rilassato composto da insegnanti (ma anche no) che vogliono trovare dei modi e delle tecniche originali e divertenti per educare ragazzi e adulti usando i mondi virtuali.
11) Scriptlandia us osgrid, ma anche in Edmondo per la diffusione degli script.

Dato che il materiale è parecchio la puntualità è d'obbligo, se non riuscite a ritrovarci, usate la chat skype per capire dove siamo e per raggiungerci. :)
