Sounds like fun!
Thank you for everything you’ve been putting into the Art Farm this round, Elle.
Thank you, Newton. 🙂
I’m looking forward to this and am enjoying the pop up galleries experience. Thanks for all you’ve done this session.
Awww, thank you Pearl! And thanks to you, Kimika and rmarie for your great help. And to all the wonderful artists at the galleries, thank you, excellent work! We couldn’t have got this far without you.
Have fun, Create! 🙂
We’ve been having fun and community with the Self Serve Gallery quadrant at Art Farm. Thanks Elle and everyone! I took photos and blogged the current galleries:
Wow! Finally I got a weblog from where I be capable oof genuinely take helpful information regarding my
study annd knowledge.
Lovely post, covers the community well! Thank you Pearl!
Veyot posted a nice entry on her blog about her gallery at Art Farm:

Day 14 and Art Farm continues to grow! Come visit the Jolly Pirate for writing inspiration, including Isadora’s Meditation Mountain. Film machinima at the Cafe Society set. Visit our exciting Pop up galleries exhibits (a few galleries available). Camp and socialize at our Youth Hostel. Remember there’s Van Caerndow’s Drinking and Drawing class on Monday’s 8 pm SLT @ his gallery.
Thanks for making the video of our October Fall Session 1 Art Farm.
This is a great example of using the invisible flying cube machinima tool we can get a copy of at your space, Kimika.
To share the opportunity of participating in LEA 28, round 9, and to invite and inform visitors, I posted this to my main blog about summer session:
Nice article, Pearl!
Kimika Ying has created this wonderful quick look video of the early days of Pop up Galleries at Art Farm:

Day 5 and Pop up Galleries are growing with lovely and interesting galleries, group and solo shows. Stop by for a visit!
Galleries still available, can be as involved or as minimal as you like. Add work to our Sculpture Gallery or to the Large Exhibit Area sandbox. Take Van Caerndow’s Drinking and Drawing class on Monday’s 8 pm SLT @ his gallery.
Have fun!
A wonderful overview of the Pop Up Galleries! The area is really looking interesting and has been a lot of fun so far. Thanks Kimika and Elle.
Thank you Pearl!
Kimika has set some free to copy scripting examples out at her gallery. Thank you, Kimika!
The Popup Galleries section at the Art Farm is open! Galleries can be any medium. Show your work, display with friends, or let anyone add to your gallery. Your choice. Two weeks and then we start with new galleries and works. Add sculpture to the Sculpture Gallery or installations or other builds to the Large Exhibit Area. Feel free to perform or present work using our center stage area. Teach a class, take a class. Boxed Tutorials and helpful resources can be added and shared at the Tutorial Library. Show up weekly and participate a bit.
We currently have 6 – 16×16 galleries available. I can tweak the size a bit for buildings.
A big thank you to Kimika for her great design & building work! Also to Pearl and rmarie for their valuable contributions! Look forward to seeing yours.
Contact me, Elle Thorkveld, for questions or help.
This is my last video about Ant Farm’s summer session. At the Low-Fi seminar given by Glori Maertens of Guerilla Burlesque, a box of info and tools were made available to us including MetaHarper Tools. Elle and Marie have been learning to use it and these clips are from performances they shared at Everything is Part of Everything Else.
Thanks for posting this Pearl – and great job Elle! Thanks to Newton for organizing the affair.
I’ve edited the video footage of the two end-of-session parties to 2:13 minutes. It was my intention to be unobtrusive while filming. Some of the art is blurry. But those of us who were there will likely remember the patience and supportive atmosphere as well as the interesting projects.
Many of us are looking forward to first fall session. Here’s a 3:12 video of just a few of the highlights for me when I was not only enjoying but had Fraps running.
A lovely look back, thank you!

Well done, Pearl. 🙂
I saw this one and really enjoyed it, Pearl. Your work is inspiring to me.
Thanks Elle and Neeva.
Great story, great machinima treatment. Your work is always really interesting!
Thank you. I’ll be contacting your agent to negotiate your availability to star in one.
There are two parties at Low-Fi and Edie’s Farm the weekend of September 12, in honor of the work people have been doing, are doing, or just want to try to pull off on the spot. This is a semi-casual gathering for SL artists, performers, and friends to enjoy our dreams and process. Please bring a finished or in-process work to show or discuss. If you have an installation at Low-Fi or The Farm you can “show” that. This is a low pressure but hopefully interesting forum for all interested.

If you plan on attending and need anything special, please leave a comment below or contact Newton (lex.perdide) or RMarie Beedit (rmarie.beedit)
Thanks Newton. It hope to attend the Sunday morning one.
Most excellent Neeva. Also be advised that if you want to show an installation at The Farm that can be a “performance” too.
I would like a five piece orchestra to accompany me while I juggle and do a rope trick.
can do Veyot, can do.
I’m putting out feelers for rescheduling the Low-Fi weekly gathering for Saturday 9/5 at 9am rather than Sunday9/6 at 9am. It is a 3 day weekend in some places in the northwestern hemisphere and my typist is whining about keeping Sunday open.
Saturday would be okay with me. Either one will do.
Very well! I wil send an announcement posthaste.
On Sunday 8/31 Glori Maertens did a comprehensive walkthrough on the tools, inspiration, and challenges in creating a dance performance. She did most of the presentation in voice and her notes are included below.
There were over 20 attendees at this seminar, from both Low Fidelity and the Guerilla Burlesque troupe. Read more here.
And thanks to Veyot for the photos: https://www.flickr.com/photos/veyot_secondlife/
Excellent class! Thanks to Glori, Guerilla Burlesque and Newton.
VB Friend and Guerilla Burlesque dancer Glori Maertens will perform and conduct a seminar at Low-Fi tomorrow morning, Sunday 8/30 at 9am SLT. If you’re interested in SL performance or any associated aspects (concept, dance execution, set design, particles, camera control, story, recording, other) please join us!
oh giggle. I guessed that you made that collage. I searched for the image on Google Images and found the lady. And then you covered it with birds. I found the AI artworks in English, too, but that took a bit more hunting.

For this week’s Low-Fi gathering, Video Producer Veyot led a videography excursion to LEA19 – Livio Korobase’s “The Egg.” Here are Veyot’s production notes and the video from that trip. Wonderful collaboration, all!
https://lowfidelityzone.wordpress.com/2015/08/24/sunday-823-video-production-excursion/
The movie location for Sunday’s upcoming movie filming is LEA 19, The Egg, by Livio Korobase. Four people have already made videos of it, and the films are all great. But, no one has featured the free egg avatar that Livio provides. We will need at least three eggs for a one-minute dance performance. Can you help? For those preferring to watch the eggs dance, Antsue suggests wearing blue clothing to match the blue in the mandalas which cover the ground.
I’ll be an egg.
I can be an egg.

On Sunday, August 23 at 11 AM, Edie’s Art farm will be producing an EGGCITING movie. This is the first call for performers and designers. You will be paid with friendship and laughter. Jobs available:
Actors, poses provided, non speaking roles
Costume designer, to design a jacket or tshirt for the cast
Choreographer, with Hud for a one minute dance segment
Music Director, to choose or write a peppy creative commons 3 minute song.
Gaffer, I cant remember what the gaffer does, but all good movies have one.
Sincerely,
Veyot, Producer
This sounds fun. I think I can make it!
I guess we need a timekeeper too because I put the time wrong. It’s my 11 AM but SL 9 AM.
Aw I work, otherwise I’d be all over that. Good luck!
I want your help to make an abstract collage in the Babel sandbox. Please add a shape or two to the canvas. I will take a picture of it when it looks like a modern masterpiece. And then we can begin another one.
Fun project and a great idea!
Ten people came to the Low-Fi gathering today. Thank you all for your participation and for being so inspirational.

Great class meeting!
Today begins Week 3 of Summer Session! Thanks to everyone who’s participated in the 1st 2 weeks, and to our awesome facilitators, Myra, Jade, Oona, Neeva & Newton!
Even though 67% of Summer Session is still to come, I’d like to invite you to think about Fall Session 1, which runs for 6 weeks from September 26 – November 8.
We’ll again have Four Lands where people can participate in various ways. You are invited to propose a land for Fall1! The only real requirement is that it be an inclusive idea where everyone is welcome to participate.
The best place to throw out your ideas is right here on MU/Talk. That way everyone can see what you’re thinking of, offer feedback, other idea inspirations, etc! You can also IM, Notecard, or email me if you prefer.
Sometime in September I’ll announce the 4 Lands for Fall1
I hope the residences can remain in the next quarter. I think ppl will be annoyed to have to start all that over again. 🙂
Unfortunately Oona, that’s not the vision at Art Farm at all. We run for 6 weeks and CLOSE. Everything goes. The next session after break is a completely new session with new lands, new activities, and new ideas.
I’m super grateful to you and everyone who’s participated in Summer Session so far, and with a month still to come I hope others will dive in, but to be clear, this is not an entitlement space. Six weeks and session over!
I have been pondering this. What if the “inclusive idea” is a phase 2 for an existing land. For example. the people participating have come up with a major project. I’m sure the environs could be changed though. There is a sense of “infrastructure creation” in this first phase.
I was pondering the very same question.
So for example, at Low-Fi, the infrastructure is up and we are now more deeply into our machinima track which will last two weeks. The forming of the performance track is in progress with the stages built and dates remaining to be committed-to. If we needed more time for the performance track to reach “fruition,” would that be something we’d “propose” and would you feel it should be considered something completely different than Low-Fi? I already suggested the performers approach you with a distinct idea for a session if that were to happen, so from my standpoint the idea of wiping things clean while “using” what has been done so far is not a problem.
On the other hand looking at Oona’s perspective, the “inclusive” aspect does warrant a lingering community within the “school” or on the farm and wiping that clean and regenerating it is more challenging. In fact, it’s more work.
Interesting projects reap interesting conundrums!
Okie, dokie smokey 🙂
Hi, Edie. Things are developing so well with what we have, now, I think you should just leave it as is. If you jumble stuff up, now, or scrap it entirely, you’re just likely to lose people.
Let the sim develop for the entire time. That’s my vote, too.
I share Myra’s & Oona’s concerns about losing people in a big change at 6 weeks. It takes a while to build things up and get them going, as we can see with the current lands.
I share Myra and Elle’s concerns. 😛
I would propose “new work land”. The participants agree to make something new every week and put it on display it in their display space. The one week cycle is to creat a balance between having stuff displayed long enough to be seen and appreciated, and short enough to encourage a constant flow of work from each artist. Once a week we could host a walk-through to talk about the work and admire it….then onto the next week’s work.
I imagine studio spaces, like at MU, but with an added emphasis on active producing and displaying work the whole session.
Depending on the number of people participating, maybe have a central area for collaborative work, discussion, and socializing.
new work land needs a better title, but I would love to participate in something like this.
I like this “new work land” idea. A current land could be adapted to incorporate this or something entirely new created. Is this one new work per week or an entire new display spaces work per week? I am thinking one new work, since some mediums and projects take much longer. I like the idea of both individual spaces and collaborative ones.
Babel sandbox could easily morph into “new work land”. I think each participant could define what new work is for them. But it would be nice to have something to display so there is a sense of collective activity and change from week to week. That would keep up interest and allow us to inspire each other to pursue and share our creative work. I don’t think participating would need to be a huge commitment. It is new work land, not new masterpiece land. Do a new doodle each week, take a picture, make a prim sculpture, or have a project that is ongoing and show the work in progress. Easy.
Sounds good!
I like this new work land idea. For me, and a few others I think, the sim is split up and not in a good way. We aren’t even connected it seems. 🙁 I know Edie doesn’t want to recreate Medici again, but borrowing what worked there and what didn’t isn’t a crime. You have the interested ppl all here and waiting to participate and actually participating now i think, it’d be a shame to lose those that just don’t want to jump through the hoops of change. I love the new work land idea. Something to unify all the sections would be nice, if i’m not misunderstanding.
A few scenes of some of the early happenings of Art Farm Co-op.
Great job Pearl! 🙂
Lovely video, Pearl!
What a beautiful look at the people and projects going on at Art Farm! Thank you Pearl!
BTW, if you just paste the video URL (Vimeo or YouTube) on a blank line, then it’ll embed right here on MU/Talk. (sometimes with Vimeo you have to take the “s” out of “https://”
I’m away from my computer, but really looking forward to seeing this!
Thank you all for your kind comments.
I’m here because of community and collaboration. Without that, I might as well just work on my projects elsewhere.
The Medici University Gallery of Art is pleased to announce its first exhibition at the Art Farm (LEA28).
“Touch Me – While I Hold My Breath” by Gwynie Beaumont, an installation of sculpture on the MUGA grounds and a retrospective of her photography in the gallery.
Opening show 1 PM SLT, August 15, 2015.
The show will run through August 22.
Due to real life, I won’t be able to attend, but the artist will be available to answer questions. I hope you all can attend.
The sculptures are really fun.
For the next show, I’d like to get everyone at the sim to contribute to an installation in the gallery. Make it a collaborative effort, the kind Edie envisioned. 😀
Gwynie’s been working really hard setting up and things are looking great. Please attend & make sure to touch the sculptures. 🙂
Congratulations Myra! Congratulations Gwynie!
So exciting!!
Show opening was great! I really enjoyed it. The display of the glyphs was very well done
Hello, On Friday 8/14 Guerilla Burlesque is performing at 7pm SLT and 12am SLT. Anyone interested in seeing this wonderful dance troupe perform live should try to get there by 6pm or 11pm in order to get a seat at this VERY busy show. Glori Maertens and Aubreya Joszpe are working on some seminars at The Farm sometime during our residency, status pending.
