How real is Second Life to you?

General Discussion

Isn't it cool how you expect to stay for a couple of hours and end up spending years doing something!I think that you're going to find drama wherever you find a group of people. SL just might emphasize it a bit more because of the "disinibition" people using the internet feel. On the other hand, I just read an article that suggests that internet groups can actually help people to develop better social skills making them all around happier individuals. That seems like a pretty real accomplishment!

I know that the line between fantasy & reality may be a tad blurry for me but here's the thing; I really like some of the fantasy aspects of sl! As Seamus says, that second slice of pie - no problem. I can dig in the garden all day in a ballgown and not get dirty, I don't have to dust the furniture, I can fly and best of all I can build replicas of historical buildings, learning about them as I go! I mean, how cool is that?Jimpsky's point about motor neurons is an interesting one. And speaking of the brain, I often dream that I'm building or wandering through a home that I have been working on in sl. It's funny how the virtual crossing over into dreams makes it more "real" in my perception. Anyone else out there dreaming there sl experiences?"When I were a wee newbie I accidentally purchased a no trans ladies dress for $1600L, (I wear a tiny dog avatar....Male!!), don't try tell SL's a game." ROFL

How real is Second Life to you?

General Discussion

Hello EveryoneI always find it fascinating to see how every individual approaches sl. Some people see it strictly as a game, others as a means to socialize, others as a venue to create and on it goes. The uses are as varied as the people themselves.For me, the line between rl and sl is very thin indeed. Some of my sl friends are as close to me as my rl ones. In fact, I really don't distinguish between the two. The "work" I do in sl is as rewarding as what I do in rl. Again, I don't really distinguish.I would be interested to see how you perceive this virtual world. A game to play? A business to grow? Is it very real to you? What do you think?

Petit Trianon - The Billard Room

Art & Architecture

For a while now I have been working on the Billard Room, located on the ground floor of the Petit Trianon. In rl this room has recently been restored with plain white boiserie. I decided to be a bit more elaborate in sl and took my inspiration from "la salle des jeux de la reine Marie Antoinette" (Marie Antoinette's games room) in the Chateau de Compigne. I used details from the wallpaper and boiserie which abounds with cherubs and flowers on a white background. Read more ...
