Steampunk, heaven and hell in the garden of NPIRL in Second life

Slideshow: Arm Strom

Crap Mariners project in The Garden of NPIRL. I wonder if he is influenced by the SFi genre Steampunk?

Cyberpunk: From Cybernetics and punk. Interdisiplinary study of structures in complex systems... prosesses for communication, controle mecanisms, evolutionarybiology, neuroscience e.t.c. It has influenced gamingtheory, systemtheory, psychology, philosophy, architecture and more.

Steampunk is a subgenre of phantasy from 1980 and the early nienties. The scene is often laid in England during the Victorian age, and the periode when steamengines were commonly used.

Creamcrackers as buildingsmaterial in Second Life

The Clocktower of Edloe Island, the home of Crap Mariner. Mariner did invite to a "Bloggers party" on sunday 30.03.08.

Snapshots and text: Arm Strom


The tower has interesting interior, but i were intrigued by the "cracking" buildingmaterials.


Unreal(life) buildingmaterials is part of what makes Sl challenging and interesting!

This tower gave room for a great bloggers party, but it dont stands water nor dominant creamcracker lovers!

How to define "a dominant creamcracker lover"?

One definition: They do eat crackers with both hands, sip tea with a straw, do eyeflirtation and sending nice energy telepatically. They are most probably british,... maybe french.

my first Blogger Day

On Sunday night (for me it was past 11PM) I went to my first blogger party.

When I arrived I was really impressed, small place and a lot of people with some celebrities like Zoe Connolly and Vint Falken that I therefore had the possibility to see "in real" inworld.

My (future) legendary shyness prevented me from immediately approaching all these bloggers who were mostly frenetically dancing.




Zoe was not dancing, but I guess it was because of her paraphernalia.




Actually it is preferible not to move too much when you wear a nitroglycerinized outfit.




A strange catfish was undulating in the middle of the room, remotely scrutinized by a neko I know now pretty well. Nekos love fishes, these two will certainly have something to share by the end of the night.




Being bolder and bolder, I approached with my camera (my body staying prudently outside) so as to better see Vint's right ear that was the most clear-cut part of her body, I even was able to see the spots of the inner ear.




Apparently Vint was more interested by her close neighbor and she neglected the catfish (maybe better for the catfish after all)




But her neighbor seemed not to pay attention to her, maybe she was another anti-neko...?




And yet Vint insisted, I am sure she was dating her by IM.




Finally she was jacked in and she resumed her surveillance of the catfish (looked like an idée fixe...)




Miss Vint Falken, a Great Lady.




As I am not neko-allergenic (unless she is hypo-allergenic) I came closer to Vint.

Actually it was to be with her on the same photo, it is always good to show off a little.




Later in the night I was the only one still dancing, the others had an interesting conversation.

I must admit I still does not know what an Akismet or askimet is...

I have to learn some more tutorials I guess.

Next time I will ask CodeBastard (unfortunately I had not the opportunity to chat with her this night)

By the way where is the catfish...? Hum, Vint is stroking her stomach, maybe a hint...




Crap Mariner must live in space, he does not know gravity.




At least Elusyve Jewel did catch a big fish, and Vint is playing with cogs.




Almost everybody has gone and I stayed a little with Lillie Yifu.




Lillie, another Grande Dame.

Sorry for all the others that I forgot to notice during the party, but Vint's eyes hypnotized me so much...

The first step in blogging is not writing them but reading them.
