My SL9B finds, part 2

The Friendly Tree (SLurl) by Fluke and Gallery Barzane

KittyCatS SL9B BirthdayBash 28 (SLurl) is an interesting installation by Misa Delight and Ti Mosienko of Columbia University, which let's you participate in the art making process. They also have a Networked art section with information and kindly included my invite to the Friendly chat café.

Great photo

SL9B finds by me part1

Here are some of my findings at SL9B.

The Virtual Museum of Architecture (VMA) Main location: (SLurl) At SL9B: (SLurl) 

From their notecard:

The Virtual Museum of Architecture (VMA) is a SecondLife entity that is dedicated to the education and exploration of various types of architecture.

Born from the Frank Lloyd Wright Virtual Museum, the VMA has expanded its interest into other styles of architecture, such as 19th Century Plantations, Sustainable Homes following LEEDS guidelines, the Art Deco designs of commercial buildings in the 1920s and most recently, the eclectic styles of Drive-in Restaurants of the 1950s.

Here in SecondLife, the VMA has a campus where we rotate our displays and hold educational lectures and fun building contests. We'd love to have you stop by and visit.

Tahby Photography has a really nice promotional plot at SL9B (SLurl). Simple and to the point, while being pleasing to the eye. And I enjoyed the relaxing athmosphere. They have a free gift.

I have been watching the development of the build in my neighboring plot and waiting to have a chance to visit. This build must have the best view on SL9b. You walk a long slide up, and all the while sigh at the breath taking look you get over the sims. And there is a hud in the works for the top platform. I found a lift, too. Fittingly the build is called The Engine of the Gods (SLurl).

Another great piece of SL architecture, and some really good photo art at the Show me Yours gallery in SL9B (SLurl). If you are interested in participating, they have an information sign about their next themed photo competition.

More about my experiences at SL9B coming soon.

Everyone is invited

Visit The Friendly Chatter Cafe, look at it on the map and read about it in the SL Destination guide.

If you decide to blog about this location or use it in your machinima, please let me know, so I can link back to your work. :)

Everyone is invited. :) (This was my invitation inworld).

Just looking at the listing of what you can find around SL9B, one knows it is going to be an amazing party with so much to see and experience. 

SL9B Friendly Chatter Café

My SL9B plot, the Friendly Chatter Café (SLurl) is finally done. I was going to spend two days on it, but got a bit "inspired" with all the treats and drinks and gifts etc. I hope you can visit at some point. SL9B is a huge celebration with a bunch of sims full of attractions and entertainment. But I figured, everyone needs a break sometimes. :) With so much to see, even virtual legs get tired sometimes. The sims open for public on 18th of June, 2012. SL9B ends 27th of June. Have fun!

Taking a break at SL9B building site

 Not that there has been time for many breaks. Have been building like a busy bee for days now. Hope to see you visit, when the sims open 18th June. You will get free treats and drinks (for tinies and biggies), and free gifts. The picture is a sneak peek at what the café looks like. There is room for several groups to enjoy themselves and talk to friends or meet new people. Or you can park there while you go afk.

A lot to see at the SL9B. Our neighbors are really interesting. There is a huge light tower right next to the café that is going to be awesome. And on the other side an artistic looking pyramid. There's some really cool pop art in a big circle on a field close by. And so much more. Plus there are so many sims to see. Take a pod and have a look. :) Keep an eye out for events. Lot's of entertainers have signed up. Live music, dj's etc. And volunteer greeters giving gifts and advice. This is gonna be an awesome event!

Stuff of Legends

Brews & Blues (SLurl) has been one of my favorite SL clubs for a while now. Excellent dj's, lovely atmosphere and a community that feels like a family keeps us regulars coming back again and again. Some even live on the sim. These pictures show a couple of the gorgeous houseboats you can rent to live in. There are two spots for dancing, the big club hall and the beach platform.

The location also houses some small businesses in lovely cottages with a route to the rest of the sim. Among those businesses is an art gallery I wanted to show you. The Blue Moo (SLurl) is a creative outlet for Margee, a rl musician, who enjoys making Photoshop art while listening to blues. Works include portraits of such musical figures as Kelvinblue Oh, a dearly missed SL Blues Legend, Eric Sardinas, Bonnie Raitt, Stevie Ray Vaughan and Joe Bonamassa.

Margee takes commissions, visit her at the gallery.
