Hello! Yes I’m still here. Bit of an unplanned hiatus there as I tumbled down various SL rabbit holes. It’s good at that. Needing a complete reset, I vacated the houseboat the other day and went to see what was available. Long term I will build a place from scratch but right now I neededContinue reading “Time to reset”

A word of caution
Not that it matters really in my case but I like to keep a level of separation between RL and SL. It’s fun to have an alter ego and it kinda spoils that fun if you can trace it back to my plain old real life self. I’ve done a few little things to coverContinue reading “A word of caution”
Good Morning
Greetings this autumnal morning. This is one of the TOR Sunrise presets. That reminds me, I need to take a good look at EEP. That’s also working in Firestorm now right? [Let Me Google That For You… Yes.] I’ve not posted for a little while because RL has been busy so SL time has beenContinue reading “Good Morning”
Giant LED Ring Light
I am creating some items as part of the design of my music venue. These giant suspended LED ring lights are my first proper foray into creating mesh models. The result of many hours grappling with Blender 2.8, I have got this down to a land impact of just 3 (4 if you use theContinue reading “Giant LED Ring Light”
Mesh avatar
I have not been on SL for a while, RL is stressful what with children being off school and trying to look after them while working. But we cope because we have to. Logged on for a few hours this afternoon and – yay – I finally got myself out of that noob avatar. Hard to believeContinue reading “Mesh avatar”
I changed my name
OK so I got sucked in… When I signed up to SL I didn’t actually realise that the username you pick is not just a login name but is actually your resident name. They don’t make it clear that you can’t change it. Well, to be more accurate, it is your first name and youContinue reading “I changed my name”

This is my first release, two tracks conceived late at night about a month ago while the COVID-19 crisis was far away and just something on the news.
Experimenting with Second Life data
RL: Lockdown day 4, Isolation day… 10ish? Maybe. I hope you are all safe. Over in SL: I’ve made some progress exploring what data I can get about users visiting my location. Essentially by getting a list of avatars in the parcel, and then for each of them using llGetObjectDetails I can get some basicContinue reading “Experimenting with Second Life data”
Isolation
Taking a moment out just to breathe. Back in the real world shit is – very obviously – going down. It’s a strange time, and obviously kinda scary certainly for some people. In the UK everything is weirdly calm right now but really not as quiet as I think it should be. Everyone is worriedContinue reading “Isolation”
Lily
So I got myself one of those KittyCats. Kinda cool. She’s pretty tiny as you can see, not even a day old. She will of course grow bigger. Less distracting than the pooch, and doesn’t need walking… Done some more work on the API tonight, mostly on the server side. Nothing much to see onContinue reading “Lily”
