Janine "Iris Ophelia" Hawkins' ongoing review of gaming and virtual world style
Second Life artist Whiskey Monday, a favorite here at NWN and currently a virtual artist in residence thanks to the Linden Endowment for the Arts, has a new sideproject in the works, and she needs your help to complete it.
The project, dubbed "Intrinsic Inventory", is something that Whiskey will be working on in addition to her LEA sim, and seems to revolve around the idea of the value we place on our virtual items. Though we don't know what shape "Intrinsic" will eventually take, Whiskey has sent out a call for participants along with a very specific set of guidelines:
-Choose one item from your inventory that is your most treasured, precious object. It can be anything in inventory, as long as it can be seen in some manner. It can be a skin, a house, a piece of jewelry or a peen- I can even work with notecards or textures. Just choose the one thing that is most precious to you. Then let me take your photo with your treasure. I’ll ask you some questions about your item, and write up a little explanation which will accompany the photo, posted here and at Flickr, and at the end of my time at LEA10, I’ll have a gallery of these images all in one place.
I hope to be able to feature a wide range of avatars and their items. I don’t care if you’re a human, robot, bunneh, or a banana avatar, I want to photograph you. I want to hear the story of your treasure. If you’re willing to pose for me, then right now, before you forget-
-Send a NC (to Whiskey Monday) or an email (to Whiskey.day at gmail) with the following info:
- Your avatar name
- Your treasure (just a quick description so I know the size of scene I need to shoot you)
- When’s the best time to catch you inworld to shoot you
- A short paragraph describing how much you love me
You can check out Whiskey Monday's original blog post for more information. Even if you don't want to contribute personally, I suspect we should all be looking forward to the finished product.
