Beatrix Newt and Rezzable in Second life. Machinima by Arm Strom

Machinima from Second life,"Eye of Newt". And, a recipe for spells and enchantments.

Among my first experiences in Second life, as a newbie two years ago, was the celebration of halloween. And this snapshot was one of my first in Second life.

Yesterday, on Halloween, i published a machinima:
"Eye of Newt".  

The environment in this machinima/video is made by Beatrix Newt, a magical virtual artist and Rezzable contentcreator.

...and the recipe "for a charm of powerful trouble" :-) 

"Eye of newt and toe of frog, wool of bat and tongue of dog"

"Meaning
The archetypal recipe for spells and enchantments.

Origin
This is the well-known incantation of the Three Witches in Shakespeare's Macbeth, 1605:

All:
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and cauldron bubble.

Second Witch:
Fillet of a fenny snake, 
In the cauldron boil and bake; 
Eye of newt, and toe of frog,
Wool of bat, and tongue of dog, 
Adder’s fork, and blind-worm’s sting, 
Lizard’s leg, and howlet’s wing, 
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.


We now see the three witches' brew as a hocus-pocus spell, much imitated by spoof witches in comedies and hardly to be taken seriously. In Shakespeare's day the effect would have been rather different and he could have expected a significant proportion of the audience to have taken the magic potion storyline literally".

Slideshow: Arm Strom

Hot and icemelting fashion show at "Cascade", the new Rezzable sim in Second life

The Cascade iceberg with interesting spots and shopping center, was opened with a fashion show on the 21.04.08.

Text and snapshots: Arm Strom.

The impressing mountain is designed by the architect My Mackenzie and the volcanos by Foolish Frost. Botany Black is also among the constructors. 6 persons have been working with the sim.

Some fashion designers mentioned: Moxie Polano, Forda Fairlane, Collie Cline and Trysta Lacey. All the hair worn with the "Rezzable line" is created by My Mackenzie. Emee Flanagan hosted the show, and Dj Aryon did play the music.

From the local chat: "Applause, applause", "Great job", Great show", "Big thanks to My Mackenzie", "Great music", "Awesome job", "Great job to everyoone", "Rezzable rocks", "I love that outfit", "That was great, i am bloody freezin though", "Now i love a drink with ice", "Awesome sim", "My is the great builder", "Well done My, it is really clever and original", "Great music deserves a tip", "Want to build a snowman Fort?", ....... "I am gonna go explore".

It was a great experience. I have to see the mountain from more angels, and from the outside too!

Pasific islands and icebergs. I really enjoy visiting Rezzable..... on a rainy day.

Greenies, hard to resist!

Mars attacks!

Do they like to move into our kitchendrawers?

Do the greenies come from a warmer region?

Maybe they want to "go home"?

To Sofian.

Thank you for introducing me to the "WeGame". The WeGame client can record in Second life, and in some games.

Arm

To sail, fly and float

It do inspire me to meet funny and creative avatars.

I contructed a windsurfer. I hope to bee able to stand up on the board one day. Maybee stretch my arms forward. I hope to find a script, that allow me to sail with the arrow-Keys.

To sail, fly and float is fascinating. I meet a little woman with her horse. She is an advanced builder.

Snapshots: Arm Strom

Raise your sail one foot and you get ten feet of wind.
