Machinima - Dreams We Live

•  by Chantal Harvey

Proposition - Wear Your Tiara to Work Day

The royal wedding, the last of fairly tales? Maybe we can all mark this day, April 29th, officially as, "Wear Your Tiara to Work Day". We would then know who the princesses are and can act accordingly. Life would be so much easier if they were clearly tagged.

 ...Or use the day to demand that others fall on their knees.

 LOL

Fairy! is that a Freudian slip?

We Are ALL Rock Stars

Some took the invitation literally.

It was a rocking night! Complete with paparazzi there!

Here we are, I'm Deborah Harry, and my man is Jon Bon.

Happy 8th REZ Day, Nyna!  .... AKA Lady Gaga for the night.

My Digits

I thought that I would add my digits. I find it interesting how different people idealize/exaggerate one body feature over another. It is what the ancient Romans discovered when they began to make their idealized sculptures of the human body. They discovered mathematical formulas for proportions of the human body that do not really exist, even in the fittest of individuals. But, they are pleasing to the eye.

It is especially intriguing in light of (the far too many) women who have a poor body image in RL. There are so many avatars with impossibly small waists, and distorted hips and butts, or boobs that could only be achieved if the entire body was 200x overweight. I've also seen quite a few avatars that are incredibly skinny. We do know from research on people's experience with their avatars in virtual worlds that many people become strongly attached and identify with their avatars. So, I wonder if there are, and if so, what are the effects of living a virtual life in an unrealistic body?

Can't wait for release of new album on the 26th :)

Why I Have a Hard Time Liking Prim Skirts

I came across this lovely scarf dress. I just love the colors, it's so spring-like. The shoes are from the Easter Egg Hunt at Baby Monkey.

The skirt even has inside out doubled sculpted prims, but I guess this problem is what we hope mesh to solve. It is extremely well done, I love it! Just watch how you shake that booty.
