"But can't you phone home or something?"
Kean Kelly took this screenshot, of course, in the marvelous Greenies (my write-up with teleport here), and is part of Kean's vastly larger Flickr stream of evocative SL images; she also maintains Dreambits, her musings on the Second Life experience. Whimsical and beautiful, Kean's image is the perfect way to introduce New World Tableau, a recurring series starting now. I've long admired the Residents who've turned SL screenshots into a new art form, vividly conveying emotions, stories, and entire cultures in a single image. New World Tableau is an ongoing album of their efforts, and I welcome submissions of all kinds. Details after the break.
Submitting to New World Tableau:
- If you come across a picture or image stream that deserves a place
here, please IM (Hamlet Au) or e-mail ([email protected]) me the link.
- Feel free to describe what the image says to you, or if you're the creator, what inspired you to make it.
- Whenever possible, name the
Residents pictured, and include a SLURL to the location (when appropriate.)
- Moderately Photoshopped
images are OK, just mention if this is the case, and what effects were added.
- If you submit an image to NWT, it's assumed I have permission to run it, either as the owner, or because it's been appropriately CC licensed. The original creator retains all their rights to it, in any case.
