We have been offering many creative programs in Second Life (www.secondlife.com) and will train you to use the technology of this amazing venue. We also welcome collaborators and participants. We belong to a sim (simulated Landmark) called Prism Lila which is devoted to the arts, therapy and spirituality and has a number of <residents> who create an array of different workshops and events. To find out when programs are taking place, please contact me in Second Life.
Here is a sampling of the types of programs I do at my Octagon for Creative Exploration (under the Avatar name: Marly Milena):
Introducing.....Marly Milena!
VISIONS OF SELF - Digital photos played with in paint program and brought into SL and put on a slide screen. You create a self-portrait on your computer from a black and white photo and paint program that represents an important aspect of the self. You upload the portrait to SL where Marly puts it on her virtual slide screen. When we gather (in Marly's Octagon studio in virtual space), we select each portrait in turn and talk about each other's images as though they were our own dreams. Then the artist shares the motivation and process for creating the image.
CREATIVE PLAY- We help people build or select virtual structures and texture them to represent different feeling states or states of consciousness. Marly does Gestalt processes and Heph helps people explore the archetypes that show up. Marly uses various ways of processing the creations to encourage insight, shifts in perspective, and greater awareness.
COMPOSER/MUSICIANS and ARTISTS - Marly forms collaborations with musicians and artist builders to improvise to each other's creations. She involves the audience in sharing their feelings and impressions in a chat bar.
