As seen through the talented eye of Master Loki Elliott
His work, as always, fills me with wonder, awe and this time, a sad regret that i was unable to attend the grandeur.
Another amazing artist, but this one with glass plates and exploding powders - Mr. PJ Trenton shares his images from this momentous event. One may also read more in the The Aetheric Log : the Primgraph. Another talented photographer is Mr. Wildstar Beaumont - who also participated and won in several categories during the glorious event. The next two photos show just a hint of his many talents. Though it is with a heavy regretful heart that I missed this spectacular event...the coordination of many including our own Miss Breezy Carver and our City's Maceholder, Aeleous Cleanslate The above two photos by Miss Bookworm Henrichs. These images... both still and moving refelect the sound and beauty of what happens with regularity in the realm of New Babbage, Second Life.
The snow will come soon...bringing its cold hush to the cobbled streets of our city, the ringing clang of the passing trolley...and with it more events that warm the heart. Which reminds me of a particular favourite event that I threw last year...the Steampunk Snowball Fort Fight as seen here with my old factory in the background.
I need to spend some more time in New Babbage...The soot has nearly left my lungs and I am bereft without the sweet sting to my eyes and the wonder of the city.
Librarians?! Yes, that's right....My RL self is going to and presenting at a national librarian conference in Charlotte, NC! Here are the 3 Steampunk styled webisodes i created promoting the Bloggers' Cafe ... yours truly has been named one of the official bloggers for the conference...so please dear friends & neighbors...forgive me if i am not around New Babbage much. AND if you see me in-world during the day Friday...know that i'm showing off our city to a bunch of mun librarians ....and wotcher salty language! LOL Webisode 2: Clank & Cecily
My gorgeous wonderful friend has made a lovely Second Life Machinima...in her words: "Dancing alone on the Celtic circle on the shores of Winterfell Harbor, mystical island in Winterfell, Second Life." Thank you dear Miss Eleanor Anderton....for your gift to us all!

September Silly Hat Rezday Fete Time: September 25, 2009 from 1:30pm to 4pm Location: Capt. Red's Revenge Pub Street: Wheatstone Waterways "This month, Capt. Red and Dr. Watson celebrate their second and fourth rezdays, just a few days apart, so they've resolved to split the difference and have a small joint celebration on the 25th. The Captain suggested a theme of silly hats (incredible headgear being a famed speciality of New Babbage) and Doctor K. added that no such party is complete without some form of moustache-based celebration.
For the faint-hearted or fair-follicled, do not fear -- Be assured that such outgrowths are not compulsory."
Sharp Shooting Prizes!
Free Flowing Potent (and Almost Entirely Legal) Rum! Absinthe and Cake!
The Wiggy Undertone Special Dunk Tank
Merry Go Round!
for more pics of us in silly hats posing for the poster please go here...
And now i reflect on my two years on the grid...i with much chagrin share the first picture from orientation island wearing my noob skin and finding i couldn't figure out how to detatch the damn torch! thinking about my embarassing early days Growing up In SL....(and my first day on the grid!) ....squatting on the West of Ireland and Dublin ...exploring Liquid Heat's Halloween Sim as little red riding hood my first real home.... my beloved Queen Anne's Revenge in Silent's Folly - Wando where i was a Captain of a lucrative pirate shipping venture. Some may ask Who is Capt. Red Llewellyn? Well, she's just a merry widow, of course! a girl who also enjoys her life underwater --
she "donned a black lace Jean Paul Gaultier dress with Dragon print silk underlay from Gaultier’s fall/winter ready to wear collection. She accessorized the look with a Keko Hainswheeler neck brace and Kiko jewelry. "
Lady Ga Ga has always had an...umm ..unusual taste in frocks, or bodysuits with hoods, or sparkly panties.... See more photos of Lady Gaga's wackiest outfits! but this is the first i've seen her don anything remotely Steampunky....
Oh and if you're wondering...Who is Lady Ga Ga...she's an American recording artist who is "inspired by glam rockers such as David Bowie and Queen, as well as pop singers such as Michael Jackson and Madonna. She is also inspired by fashion, which she claims is an essential component to her songwriting and performances. She is also very supportive of the gay community, crediting them for her early mainstream success."
So, is it Steampunk or just Freaky? or Freaky Cool? Or like Little Miss Uchin Myrtil said on our Ning "Does she not look like an SL Avatar?" Thoughts?!
