PoeTik Party 33 and after

For space i/o and some other building Jobs have been taking my attention fully for 4 months, and now I am trying to get back to the music scene activities. To kick off the effort, I asked Nur to give me a chance to play in the new installation of PoeTik party. It was almost a month ago to schedule this gig, and I was in the kind of mood pushing me to make a new style of a music set. Some friends, Waxy, Yotan, and Guiri have been talking to me about Nu Jazz Mix recently almost simultaneously, so I just tried, and found really interesting results. So many couples brought couple dances to the floor and showed me their DEEP LOVE in the nu jazz scene. Voila! That's what about! Always my friends teach me what to do. And always they are so right.

An Abyss @ Poetik Party X / 20th May 2008

Sometimes we can meet a very fortunate chance to bring out something inside of us unconsciously, and it comes up with a great surprise of self-learning moment. "An Abyss @ Poetik session" was the crucial momentum of my music set creation, and taught me how much important I am prepared for one specific session in one very absorbed mood.

The happy memory, dedicated to Aragane Nishi, the artist of the space upon whole new SL experience.

Location : Poetik @ Sintetika, A sim dedicated to Art, Music and Experimentation of the SL Metaverse.

Epilogue
Sometimes it's even harder to say something you're supposed to know well. Alpha box Friday is the case. I started my djing in Alpha on 14th March, one month later of Valentine's day. Why I made it on the day was a long story. Ever since 14th of March, Friday, I have been continuing my Friday sessions until now. Largely because Thinker, my best friend and best mentor of SL Technology and design, let me have a chance to test myself as a dj. He also still encourages me to keep it on, every time I lose my confidences on my sets and types.

As many people know, Alpha Box is the first minimal club in SL, and it has very deep credibility and reliability among minimal fans in SL. What I learned from SL clubbing and djing since the initial trying, was building a club is easy, but keeping your club business on is the hardest thing in SL. Thinker Moy keeps his business for such a long time, and he moved his Alpha prims so many times, for so many reasons. He is still on his deep rooted business and I admire it. As much as I admire his business and accomplishment, I feel it is very hard to stand in the dj box of Alpha. The time I'm standing in it is the happiest, and the most tensioned moment of every week.

The fun of Polaroid

2008-05-07T07:34:00.000-07:00

Having a Polaroid camera, that has been a sort of my wishlist for a long time. Still I haven't one in my RL. The beauty of instant capturing of moment is immediacy and something by chance, which will keep us attachments to it. The Polaroid frame and handwritings on it give us some sort of "flashback memory" feeling.

"do not forget me...."

Alice in wonderland metaphor, no one can be more imaginative, and soaking into our emotion than this classic version of fantasy.

A secret entrance, this is an endurable metaphor and architype of growing-up.

Kurotsubaki, my recent shelter and a hiding place for peace.

2008-04-29T07:29:00.000-07:00

26th of April was a D-day of me. I went over 2 consecutive sessions from 9 AM to 12 PM SLT, rounding Alpha Box to Kromatic. Two very different scenes and crowds that I had to prepare. I planned a minimal set for Alpha box, and a lounge set for Kromatic. However, for the size, audience responses, and all the variances on the stage, all just mixed up:)

In spite of all these messing and mixing things, my friends always stayed with me and listened to the sessions:)

One Year F.A.T. DESIGNZ Anniversary Parties

2008-04-13T10:00:00.000-07:00

Thank you, Lady.
AN AWESOME MACHINIMA!

During the whole weekend, I just stayed with my music friends. And I had my session shortly @ Home, very homey place as it says, from 3pm - 6pm Saturday SLT. The place is designed like a maze and layered cells, so that we had 3 concurrent sessions in 3 different spaces in one location sharing chatting together. It was literally a mix of crowds :)

I played in chill-out lounge, in which people leaned back and whispered personal chatting in open chat windows. I missed so many mix timings just to listen their small little happy things. It was the most friendly continuing chit chat ever, in the public space.

you can find more about home at its blog http://home.rezzidents.com/

Fashion Photography in Second Life

2008-01-07T02:42:00.000-08:00

What will be a reason to hang in Second Life, 8-9 hours a day avg. among its residents. One kind of answer for the question is easiness of relating to media in Second Life. I have found fashion goers' appetite around popular public places, such as house DJ owned clubs, luxurious shopping malls or towns, and sometimes during the visit to friends' skyboxes.

I bought some decent cocktail dresses, and took pictures for fashion editors' feed.
