Flickr Collaborators and Posers (FCP) was a longstanding group, now mostly inactive, that comprised a large number of SL residents who met weekly Fridays and/or Sundays, accommodating various time zones over a 3 year period.  The group was founded around February 2008 by Katiya who also organized many of the photo shoots.  A pre-selected theme and location was arranged and announced in the in-world and Flickr groups then people would get together and pose for group shots in costumes, poses, and props fitting the selected theme and sim.  

Many of the former FCP members have become exceptional SL artists and this exhibit showcases works from just a few of the “regulars” to FPC.   We thank the artists contributing to this Skywalk Gallery exhibit.  Last month’s exhibit “Technochory”  by Bryn Oh and Sina Souza will also remain in place for an extended time.  Please enjoy the exhibits and explore the entire sim. 

The Station boasts a variety of fun things to explore in the sky and on ground level including 2 clubs, 2 theaters (one can be booked for free/contact sim management) many rides (various carnival rides, a human cannon that explodes shooting the rider into the air opening on a steampunk bird glider to fly around, a sling shot ride from sky to ground, trains, trolleys, a mechanical bull, floating balloons), a fun house, zeppelins, numerous hidden locations for hanging out, dates or photography, a gambling hotel with various games to play for free, stores, rentals, underwater area, freebies in various locations and much more.  Look for future art exhibits, live music, and club events to come.    (Sim owner/builder: Enigmatic Deir, Sim Manager: Sonrisa Seminario)

IDIA Lab Flickr Gettr V4

Flickr Gettr v4 - 2011

Ok, this was very cool and I played with something like it at SL Burning Life 2 years ago, but this one won't completely work with Phoenix viewer and so I had a fellow visitor put my name in the search box to pull up my Flickr pics that have been tagged with my name so that I could take pictures of my Flickr pictures floating around me. The idea is to search any word you like and then Flickr pics with that tagged name will pop up and surround you. This is a fun thing to see and try.. check it out!

While there blogging this I met one of the makers, Mencius Watts, who confirmed that at this time Phoenix does not support this project, but the pictures can still be viewed using Phoenix. I checked his profile for the following info. "http://idialab.org/projects/45
Virtual World/Social Media Mashup: Flickr Gettr v4 IDIA's Flickr Gettr connects the social image repository of Flickr to Virtual Worlds and mobile devices. through an interactive 3D and sonic experience - immersing the viewer in a dimensional cloud of user searched imagery.
Exhibitions for the Institute of Digital Intermedia Arts {IDIA Lab] at Ball State University"

AM Radio also showed up so I took a few more pics : )

The mobile version will be available after an upcoming announcement. In that version visitors interact with any web enabled mobile device such as an iPhone or Android to control what appears in Second Life.

Media must be enabled. All sound faders should be up - especially voice
Shared Media Plugin Compatible Viewer: LL Viewer 2.5 and higher

The sim note card in parts states:
"THE INSTITUTE FOR DIGITAL INTERMEDIA ARTS at Ball State University is a virtual design studio exploring the intersections between art, science and technology. Research projects investigate virtual reality, interactive installation, hybrid design, simulation and human computer interface. IDIA Lab is funded by Eli Lilly Endowment, Inc. Artists, designers, researchers, and students, engage with international partners through this project-based learning center investigating the forefront of discourse in emergent media design.

Flickr Flash!-My Pummelvision

My Pummelvision from Kara Trapdoor on Vimeo.



My buddy Lowe Runo (LoweHere.)posted how to get Flickr pics together using this Pummelvision (PummelvisionHere.) online tool, so I had to try. I have so many SL Flickr pics that my Pummelvision results are a little over the the 1.30 sec Flickr allows, so guess I will save it here. It's a nice review of what I have been up to in SL.
