Are you an avatar who likes to play with your art? Your mom told you not to, but you just cant help yourself. Click it, rez it, and grab it using Gossamer Logic. But look and listen closely...gossamer reveals but it can also conceal.

The Chilbo Museum is pleased to present Misprint Thursday's Gossamer Logic from February 1 through April 30, 2009. Visit the museum: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Chilbo/132/24/96

Gossamer Logic at Chilbo is a complete installation which includes an architectural “container” for the interactive exhibit. The building itself is a reflection of the installation providing sheer visual access to the art. The interior space consists of dreamlike objects that satisfy the viewer’s desire to click and play in the course of investigating an untold narrative.

Created by Misprint Thursday, she is an artist in RL and SL; in fact, she considers SL itself to be her art studio. Misprint is fond of physics, integrating custom sounds into her work, creating and decoding layers of mystery, using layered transparencies and generally making creative debauchery mixed with indulgent nonsense.

Explore and click things! Try different settings of light-it is not designed to any specific time of day. Please turn up your sound.

Currently Scarp Godenot’s Flower Worlds is on exhibit through December 28, 2008. During the month of November, aside from Chilbo and Chilbo Connect members, there were over 130 visitors to Chilbo Museum. I have no idea if that is a “good” number, but getting some exposure for Chilbo seems a good thing to me. Scarp reported that he has had some sales from the exhibit, so there has been a bit of benefit for him also.

On December 6, Scarp held a workshop on creating atistic images using a flatbed scanner, the technique he uses for the images in the current exhibit.

The turnout was fairly good and Fleep blew the crowd away by producing a scanned image and uploading it as the workshop was in progress.  She has promised a future blog post on her artistic adventure, so  we will look forward to that.

For the future, I anticipate the next exhibit will be by Misprint Thursday and open some time in January. After that, the calendar is open. If you or someone you know would be interested in exhibiting at Chilbo Museum, please feel free to contact me. I am open to any suggestions, but these are what I would consider “bonus” points:

1. A Chilbo or Chilbo Connect Group member

2. Little or no previous experience exhibiting in Second Life

I did have one person contact me and I thought I had written her name down correctly, Odessa Oliphone. But when I went to Search for her later, no Odessa. Odessa, if you are out there reading this, please don’t think too poorly of me, get in touch and let’s take a look at what you would like to exhibit.
