I am an artist, instructor, and superhero as an arts advocate promoting the importance of creative education and community participation in the arts that are active and inclusive. Owner / Artist of hue are you? in Second Life and my superpower is expression through color.
Yay! I am participating in my first Second Life Hunt! It is the Gridwide Super Hero Hunt where you find all kinds of goodies for superheroes and those that do good deeds. (how perfect for me!!!) “hue are you?” has awesome jams and a short safe cape! I am #11, but you want to start at #1 to get your first prize and a notecard full of Landmarks and hints to find the other prizes. Look for the golden super S! Start here and have fun! Be Super!!!
Gracie Kendal, who has mounted several art exhibits in Second Life about identity, has hit her mark for her latest project called 1000 Avatars. In a virtual environment, you can be anyone you want to be. Gracie has documented over 1000 unique choices that capture personalities, missions, and motives. Congrats Gracie!
As I teach people to join virtual worlds, I encourage them to represent their best self. The avatar is your personal brand and like any brand you want to create loyalty, recognition, and genuine experiences. What does your avatar’s appearance reveal about you?
It has been an honor to be part of this project. Check out Gracie’s work at her blog http://1000avatars.wordpress.com and in world at http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Artropolis/150/29/3999
What color you choose says a lot about you! Enjoy these unisex striped pajamas in several colors to show off your superpowers or just lounge around in. To stay comfy or to get some work done at home, these striped jams come in several clothing layers.
You can find them at the “hue are you?” shop or on Xstreet!
Another successful fundraiser for Project Jason, an organization that assists the families of the missing, and The Garden for the Missing, a project to create awareness, was held at LoveLi Mall and earn over $200 to the cause. Kelly Jolkowski, Jason’s mother and founder of Project Jason, spoke about the disappearance of her son and how they support famillies with missing people. This Second Life event is a great example of how virtual worlds have real world results. Thank you to all who created and supported the event!
