In The Club: Kromatic As Real World Nightclub Prototype

Kromatic_club_video While nightclubs are numerous in Second Life, and many (like the sub-orbital Inspire) succeed as only-in-SL social spaces, I rarely come across clubs that might work in both realities.  Kromatic is one of those, as this cool video featuring DJ Ionic and a great, Boogie Nights-worthy crane shot attests.  With its clean layout, abstract wall art, and abundant semi-private spaces, were Kromatic constructed in Manhattan or Los Angeles tomorrow, it would attract lines around the block by next week. 

Ev_despres_at_kromaticAs it happens, the club seems to cater primarily to Spanish and Portuguese-speaking Residents; on a brief visit, I met a girl from Barcelona named Ev Depres, tricked out in tattoos and an armband stuffed with dynamite, a fashion style that might best be described as Anarchist Waif.  The other patrons briefly said Hello, then continued chattering in text studded with tildas and other curlicue symbols.
