Chimera went to the Second Life Aditi Beta Grid today. On a lark, she built a useless bridge, learned to import/export her content with Meerkat, went back to Aditi to import, and finally went to SL to export. Your item just appears, so be careful where you are!

Now you can see better. The iPhone connection for CC, the MacBook Pro on the Westin Arlington wifi on the right. If you were in-world, the cloud would have a name over her head. heheh

Now back to work for the typist!

Long story. Chimera Lemon went to hear Broadway singer Tamara Sands at World2Worlds with the cool kids. Everyone was tipping her, but CL is an alt and had no money. She needed to borrow from the main avi so Chim came in on Sparkle on the iPhone to lend her some.

Then CL TPd back to Jokaydia where Chim (main avi) was. But on Sparkle you are only and always a cloud. Chim appeared where she was last, and Chimera Lemon sat there too. But Sparkle cloud avis don't sit, and the cloud was kind of in CL's face. Got that? LOL

Chim had to shoot fast before JenzZa Misfit un-rezzed the mirror! Jennette Forager's Tools Jam group looked at "point of view" tools today. Cool session at the Epoch Institute. Chimera is still wearing her free Bee outfit from Burning Life.

Image description:
And she has feet only because they are built into the sandals! Yikes!

Image description:
Chimera and Eshi's discussion has turned to the development of artistic talent, and teaching art in schools. Eshi made a clay model of the object in the picture quite a few years ago, and it has perhaps become iconic in her work. Eshi gave Chim two versions.

Pieso sits on the grass while Eshi and Chim sit by the sea.

Image description:
Eshi Otawara is telling Chimera about how to learn to draw freely--to let go of control. Chim is bad at that.

Image description:
Eshi Otawara dropped by Jokaydia for a late night chat. She gave Chimera a new pair of boots. Yay!

Image description:
Spiral and Chimera are discussing their SL education projects.

Chimera Magic had a bad experience with identity theft and griefers, but she is back on Jokaydia and so is all of the missing property. She is having a few moments to relax in Chimera Cosmos' favorite chair.

Chimera rearranged the grove on Jokaydia and got some new Australian iris.. She is admiring the view from the sitting spot in the gum tree.

Image description:
Come on by and take a copy ifyou need a place to sit. The building class included a table, but that is not done yet. Not bad for a beginner.

Image description:
Spiral has to keep jumping or she will drown in the giant hot chocolate cup! Oh well. Not a bad way to go.

Image description:
Do you like it better with or without the grass in the photograph? See the other photo for details.

Chimera just put her new painting on the wall in Jokaydia. It is a gift from Courteous Avedon, a painter in RL too. Chimera met him at the Virtual Worlds Best Practices in Education conference this weekend.

Courteous says: "The great artists of the 20th century paid tribute to Henri Rousseau for his painting of green jungles, this painting is a tribute and entitled "Verdant Green #48" paint on canvas c.2008"

Maybe Courteous will open a gallery or exhibit in one in Second Life soon. He has only been a resident for about 3 months.

Image description:
Chimera's original Jokaydia III property is now combined with Spiral's lot just behind, and a smaller one adjacent. The combined group is now the Jokaydian Visionaries.

Ninoramai Hax is presenting his voting machine. Cool!

Image description:
The sign to the far right says "Welcome to the Fed Virtual Underground" a joint project of the Federal Reserve Banks of Atlanta, Boston and Cleveland. Chimera is watching a slideshow with US economy data. You can see Chimera and Spiral's property in the distance.

Image description:
There is a US Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland build just across from Chimera on Jokaydia, but she has not met the owners yet.

Image description:
Spiral and Chimera are tending Jokay's new garden on Jokaydia III. Chimera is glad that pixel clothes don't show dirt!

Image description:
Chim and Spiral did a lot of landscaping to get their property spiffed up for the Edublog Awards on Saturday. It's time to relax..

Image description:
How could you not love the view? Chimera takes some time out to relax.
