Secondlife e' stata ed e' una esperienza per me molto importante.
L'impatto iniziale di curiosita' per questo metaverso si e' trasformato con il tempo con la voglia di poter dire anche io qualcosa cercando di crearmi una identita' ben precisa.
Questa opportunita' me l'ha data il Build, ossia la capacita' di costruire oggetti di qualsiasi genere dal semplice al piu' complesso, naturalmente seguendo i corsi messi a disposizione dalla scuola di Build di Secondlearning. Con l'andare del tempo e dopo aver girato in lungo e in largo questo metaverso, mi sono ritrovato a voler fare qualcosa che andasse oltre i soliti canoni delle strutture e costruzioni classiche, provando ad esprimere delle mie idee attraverso delle sculture di vario genere. Iniziando da forme geometriche sono approdato poi all'uso di tecniche piu' difficili quali lo shade, che permette di manipolare un solo prim in maniera complessa e dando forme inaspettate e dissimili dalle solite cose che si possono trovare andando in giro. Naturalmente alle spalle c'e' un lavoro di tentativi su tentativi e intere serate a cercare di capire come meglio forgiare delle opere che potessero dare una emozione anche la piu' semplice..ma che potesse far soffermare su una idea che io ho in testa, e poterla condividere con altre persone.


Second Life has been and is for me a very important experience.
The starting effect of curiosity for this metaverse soon turned into the wish of saying something trying to create a definite personality. Building gave me that chance, that is the ability to creating objects of any kind, from the simplest to the most complex. All that after attending some courses offered by the school of Building at Secondlearning. Later on, after exploring this metaverse far and wide, I realized I wanted to do something that would go beyond the usual rule of structures or classical framing; so I tried to express my ideas through different sculptures. I started creating geometrical shapes then I used more difficult techniques such as "the shade", which gives the possibility to manipulate a unique prim in a very complex way. As a result I obtained unexpected and different shapes quite unlike the ones anyone can find around.
It is clear that I've been working hard to get this result trying to get the good ones a and long nights spent trying to understand how to frame at my best some works that could convey an emotion.... even the simplest, and that it could attract people to an idea I had in my mind or just to share my message with them.
Second Life a été et est pour moi une expérience très importante.
Le premier effet de curiosité pour ce metaverse bientôt s'est transformé en la volonté de dire quelque chose, essayant de créer un personnalité bien définie.
Le Build m'a donné cette chance : la capacité de créer des objets de toute nature, du plus simple au plus complexe. Tout cela après avoir assisté à des cours offerts par l'école du build à Secondlearning. Plus tard, après la découverte de ce metaverse dans sa totalité, j'ai réalisé que je voulais faire quelque chose qui irait au-delà de la règle de l'élaboration de structures classiques; J'ai alors essayé d'exprimer mes idées au travers de différentes sculptures. J'ai commencé à créer des formes géométriques puis,des techniques plus difficiles comme que le "shade", qui donne la possibilité de manipuler une prim de maniere très complexe, obtenant un résultat différent de ceux que tout le monde pouvait trouver alors.
Il est clair que j'ai travaillé dur pour obtenir ce résultat, avec beaucoup de nuits passées à essayer de comprendre la meilleure façon de permettre aux travaux,même les plus simples de transmettre une émotion .... afin d' attirer des gens à l'idée que j'avais à l'esprit, ou tout simplement pour partager mon message avec eux.




Second Life ha sido y sigue siendo para mí una experiencia muy importante.
El efecto a partir de la curiosidad por este metaverso pronto se convirtió en el deseo de decir algo tratando de crear una personalidad definida. Construir me dio esa oportunidad, que es la capacidad de creación de objetos de todo tipo, desde los más simples a los más complejos.
Todo eso después de asistir a algunos cursos ofrecidos por la escuela de Trabajadores de la Construcción en Secondlearning. Más tarde, después de explorar este metaverso a lo largo y ancho, me di cuenta de que yo quería hacer algo que fuera más allá del habitual estado de las estructuras o la elaboración clásica, así que traté de expresar mis ideas a través de diferentes esculturas. Comencé a crear formas geométricas, luego utilicé las técnicas más difíciles, tales como "la sombra", lo que da la posibilidad de manipular un único Prim en una forma muy compleja.
Como resultado obtuve formas inesperadas y muy diferentes a las que pueden encontrar por ahí. He trabajado duro para obtener este resultado, tratando de crear buenas piezas y pasé muchas noches tratando de entender cómo enmarcar de la mejor manera algunas obras para poder transmitir una emoción .... incluso la más simple, y que podría atraer a la gente a una idea que tuve o simplemente para compartir mi mensaje con ellos.

When you arrive using the landmark above you will see the first floor filled with artwork. On this floor and above many of the art sculptures are interactive - they react to avatar presence by making sounds or rezzing something as part of the presentation. Consider walking closer - if you just cam around you will give you only part of the effect our artists have created. After you examine the first floor, please walk up the staircase. Each step has an artwork made by the artist whose name you see on the step. Clicking on a step will give you information, bio, and artists' statements. Once you reach the top of the stairs you will enter our Events area. This is where the Opening Event will be held on July 11th. This is a very unusual event area - the whole room is designed specifically for this show by one of the most acclaimed SL artists, Glyph Graves. He is well known for making beautiful, vibrant, unusual installations. For the Soleil he created not just a room - it is a different world. Again, I strongly suggest walking in as opposed to camming up - you will see how being inside affects your mood and feelings.�� To emphasise this effect, during the opening, July 11th, we will enjoy a very special performance by AldoManutio Abruzzo, an amazing professional musician (Dennis Moser in RL) known for his music improvisations. He visited the events area and agreed that this wonderful art installation will inspire him to play something special - his music will be the 37th art piece of the show, only existing for one hour. He is generously donating his peformance to AngelGate Arts to support the future of creating art events like the Soleil.�� The opening celebration will be continuted by another live music performance. Edward Kyomoon sings rock music and love songs ranging from the 60's to the present, covering bands and artists such as the Doors, Pink Floyd, Blue October, Snow Patrol and Nine Inch Nails. He also shares his own original music. He will perform from 11AM till Noon. His concert is another generous donation to support Angelgate non-profit organization art programs .�� Don't hesitate to contact me should you require any further information.
White Lebed,
Curator.

WEB 2.0


WEB 2.0 di Solkide Auer L'evoluzione del web ha creato tutta una serie di importanti innovazioni dal punto di vista sociologico, culturale, artistico, politico ed economico con relativa crescita delle possibilita' per ognuno di noi di poter espandere il proprio io virtuale attraverso innumerevoli mezzi, primo fa tutti i socialnetwork. Il susseguirsi di interazioni fra utente e web ormai all'ordine del giorno, ha creato un legame indissolubile fra le idee di ciascuno e la voglia di condividerle con altri. Ed ecco che, il susseguirsi di pensieri, comunicati, idee, stati d'animo o semplice curiosita' di vedere cosa fanno o dicono gli altri, hanno portato a dover essere necessariamente presente in socialnetwork di un certo rilievo e spessore. Con la mia installazione WEB 2.0 ho voluto raffigurare una mia idea di come miriadi di flussi di idee materiali e immateriali si intersechino l'uno con l'altro fino a creare una rete nella rete in cui lo spettatore e l'attore sono un tutt'uno e seguono un itinerario indefinito ma che alla fine portano tutti ad un centro che e' il proprio essere al centro del web così come il web il centro di se stessi.

Brooklyn is Watching Podcast #60


Postcard from Second Life.
In Episode 60 Podcast regulars Jay Van Buren and Don Carroll are joined by the conceptual artist and comic-book-maker Jason Robert Bell and the mysterious Oberon Onmura who traveled all the way across the east river from his smaller, more crowded and expensive island to our larger and rather elongated island to enrich our dialogue with his knowledge and opinions. And he looks like…. no… i won’t tell you. Um….He’s pitch black and has glowing red eyes in real life too. Just kidding. But seriously- podcast fans, this is a good one - a fairly civil and thoughtful conversation and one that I hope you will all enjoy. Artists discussed: Maggnnus Woodget, Misprint Thursday, Esha Bruun, NataS Janus, Werner Kurosawa, Aki Skute, Nessuno Myoo,. Daniello Bernard, Kicca Igaly, Solkide Auer

Arte e geometria

La sera del 28 aprile presso Indire si e' tenuta la replica della serata dedicata a Arte e geometria presieduta dalla curatrice Giliola Allen che ha intrattenuto gli ospiti parlando di varie forme di accostamento che esistono nell'arte prendendo spunto dalla geometria ed ha avuto come ospiti di nuovo me e la collega Shellina Winkler. Durante la serata sono state trasmesse foto e poi ho rezzato delle mie sculture che hanno fatto da cornice alle spiegazioni di Giliola.
Ringrazio sentitamente sia Giliola per avermi invitato che Redstar Lamilton che ha fatto delle belle riprese e messo su youtube il video che qui allego.
