Haven't posted here in a very long time. As of this week, I will no longer really be checking it either. Places where you can still find me: fosstodon.org/@erikMondrian youtube.com/erikMondrian primfeed.com/erik.mondrian bsky.app/profile/rainst… And, of course, in #SecondLife. 🦊

At long last, another large-scale #SecondLife terrain model! 🗺️🥳 To go along with my #SL21B exhibit (maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/SLB…), where I have a model on display of Heterocera, I've now mapped and made a video showing Sansara as well, SL's oldest continent: youtube.com/watch?v=OCdQO1…

The shutdown today of #ICQ hit me a lot harder than I expected! Though it's been over a decade since I last logged in, it was once the primary way to stay in touch for those of us on The Palace: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Palac… I miss those people more than I can say. ❤️ #VirtualWorlds

A new beta version of Firestorm was sent to the Phoenix Firestorm preview group today. Our version number, 7.1.9, is the LL featurettes viewer (as released yesterday) merged into Firestorm. Mirrors, PBR terrain, and huge textures. Hopefully, it also brings us closer to release.

We all know about music made for video games, but what about music made *in* video games? Here's a thread of some of the wackiest and most impressive music made by gamers using in-game engines, sound effects, and materials.

My most-used Second Life and Firestorm keyboard shortcuts, in no particular order 🧵 Ctrl+F - Find! More or less every visit involves this half a dozen times.

Another year, another #RezDay! 😅😯 I've been in #SecondLife for nineteen years now, and don't plan on leaving anytime soon. 🦊 For all its imperfections, this world is still unmatched in many ways—as both a community and an outlet for creative self-expression.

You can wax philosophical all you want about the "miracles" of AI and what it will do for humanity, but the reality in the here and now is that it takes away work from countless people while flooding the Internet with "content" that makes it that much harder to find a real voice.

You can write the words, but you cannot give them life. They will only live when someone takes them in, gives them shelter, finds a place for them in the corners of their mind or in the depths of restless dreaming, until your words become theirs and you are one, never having met.

We move through the world and around it, beyond it, above and below and beside it, approaching escape velocity at twice the speed of who the f*ck am I and how could you think that this could be home or that I would ever, EVER belong. The grass is green, dripping red. #micropoetry

The songs feel the pain so that I don't have to, as I cling to the safety of staying numb. Sooner or later the music ends, and in the silence I break yet again. #micropoetry

The slowest elevator in the known universe carried Henry down to the first floor of his apartment building, then spent an eternity deciding whether to maybe descend just a hair farther before finally coming to a stop. And Henry was already late for work. #microfiction

One of these days / The world will be ours / And we can talk hours and hours / Of nothing or all / And tell stories of joy / Adventure and hope / Live not to destroy / But to dream. #micropoetry

That feeling when you feel like everyone "belongs" except you, not knowing that they're all just trying their best to be a part of something bigger than themselves and wondering if it's enough. #community

Grabbed this a few weeks ago with @erikMondrian - He's brilliant and super interesting. :) This was the result of him associating RGB color codes to a Space Mouse (I think?) His choice of background was also epic so I had to film a few mins <3 #secondlife 🔊🔊🔊

Even if no one else reads it. Even if the algorithms ignore it. Even if it's swept away by a relentless flood of machine-made words, free for the taking and in infinite supply— I would still need to write. #art #selfexpression #survival
