The Drax Files: Robin Sojourner And The End Of Second Life As We Know It

Janine "Iris Ophelia" Hawkins' ongoing review of gaming and virtual world style

Every couple weeks there's a new episode of The Drax Files: World Makers, and every couple weeks Draxtor Despres raises the bar a little higher. Last friday he released the latest episode, with Robin Sojourner in the spotlight. It's inspirational, motivational, and definitely one of the best episodes to date.

... Do I say that every time? Well, judge for yourself:

 

What leapt out at me most was Robin's perspective on creativity, and her stance that practice and perseverance is even more crucial than natural talent. Robin's been a source of inspiration to many in Second Life for quite some time now, and her positive attitude is infectious. I'd say most of us could stand to learn a thing or two from her, creatively and otherwise.

With 10 episodes in this series under his belt (you can watch them all here), I'm excited to see where Draxtor will take us next.

He should make a video about the SL Blogosphere.

Excellent.

Without doubt, the Drax files is the best evangelists and publicist SL ever had. When a talented artists acquaintance told me he wanted to leave SL because there wasn't much to do I URLed him MadPea Drax files #8. I've been using Drax Files as medicine for some time. Sure, it doesn't always work. There is still wonder here and the files highlights people I would be delighted to have on my friends list. Many long term SLers are suffering from a condition described by that terrible word ennui. The best advice is to sit back and watch a couple of recent editions of the Drax Files. Then think, wasn't this why I got into SL in the first place?

Must be satisfying to get approval from Santa himself.
