IBM2 is currently hosting a full sim Madcow Cosmos extravaganza with sounds by Lorin Tone. Make sure to read the signs in the zoo, they’re very funny. A goblin vs. children village demonstrates the incredible inventive Madcow mind, and a wonderful story about the joy of music with fantastic animal/instruments (you can also buy these as avatars from Lorin’s or Madcow’s shops). Start with the middle path and grab a book before you ascend to around 1300m, Madcow wrote a wonderful book about a little boy learning to love music and the build is amazing. Open till the end Nov. http://slurl.com/secondlife/IBM%202/157/34/23
