It’s not as bad as all that.

Latest work

If you read my past entries, you would know that I do a fair amount of real life art. Lately its been mostly sculpture. In a purely narcissistic move, I just felt the need to post a few of the pieces I’m most proud of..

Second Life sculpture, Reacive scripts.

screenshot-1.png Reactive build
Tonight, Rezago Kokorin hosted another event on basic reactive scripting in SL. The idea being that any prim you place the scripts into will react in certain ways to the presence of an avatar. This ranges from changing color and shape to spinning and moving. The turnout was actually quite good, with over 12 participants.

After a basic explanation of the scripts, we were turned loose to build and experiment. Several of the sculptures went beyond simple pieces to full on installations. Sun and Cyanide made some of the more interesting pieces that you could walk through. They would react and change size. The basic impression was that you were walking through a tunnel, or flip book.

Other than that, feeling OK. I had some bad moments tonight, but everything OK now. I’m very shortly going to *attempt* to get to sleep. Baring problems, you won’t hear from me til morning. Oh.. and I’m out of welding wire, dammit.

Page count and useless information….

Well, in 5 days I have racked up 60 hits. I’ll admit this is more attention than I expected. I’m rather used to living in obscurity. Thank you, all who visit. My ego appreciates it.

Last night I made my third sculpture in SL. Its fairly simple, but I like it.

The symbol on the heart is a molecular representation of cyanide. One carbon and one Nitrogen atom. At least it should be if I researched it right.

I have been feeling pretty good with things lately. I have noticed that things tend to look bleaker in the middle of the night, but that should hardly be surprising. I’m more confident in my relationship, and with things in general. We still have issues, but I think and hope it can all be dealt with like adults. I’ll write another “history” entry tonight, I think.

And now… here is an article on how to back a car out of a moving airplane.

And if thats not enough, Just for kicks, heres how to jump from a moving train.
