The Terrygold Art Gallery

Posted on by

The lat­est episode of our orig­i­nal series, “Where Have You Been?”, which takes a look at things to do and places to vis­it around the Sec­ond Life Grid, this time vis­its The Ter­ry­gold Art Gallery on Peace­ful Land.

Ter­ry­gold Resident’s gallery fea­tures her work, and guest artists in three indi­vid­ual gallery spaces, acces­si­ble from the lob­by via a tele­porter.  Terrygold’s work is rather inter­est­ing, in that she com­bines two dimen­sion­al images that she cre­ates with mean­der­ing envi­ron­ments that fol­low a reflec­tive nar­ra­tive of her own. We focus par­tic­u­lar­ly on two of the instal­la­tions.

“Where Have You Been?” is broad­cast on Wednes­days and Sat­ur­days, at 12 noon and 4pm SLT/Pacific Time, and a new episode is released every two weeks.

The region Peace­ful Land is rat­ed Adult.

The Magic of The Musical: “Everything Addams”

Posted on by

This month we break our own rules, fea­tur­ing more than the music of the stage. If you can’t break your own rules in Octo­ber, when CAN you break them? Today we explore the musi­cal lega­cy of The Addams Fam­i­ly which includes the 1960s tele­vi­sion show, the films (both live action and ani­mat­ed) and the stage musi­cal.

CLICK ABOVE TO LISTEN NOW

Join us at Haunt­ed Hol­low on Chest­nut Hills in #Sec­ondlife at 2pm pacific/slt on Sat­ur­day, Octo­ber 15, or tune in and lis­ten to the show live on Vir­tu­al Com­mu­ni­ty Radio. Host Cale­do­nia Sky­tow­er is joined by Guest Kay­den Ocon­nell – actor, musi­cian, and sup­port­er of the arts in both 1st & 2nd Lives – who played Uncle Fes­ter in a local pro­duc­tion  of the stage musi­cal.

They’re creepy and they’re kooky,

Mys­te­ri­ous and spooky

They’re all togeth­er “ooky”
