The Art of Burning Life .. Part Five

OK, so here are a few things I have seen at BL09 that you might like to check out.
These are a mixture of great pieces and pure fun, so I hope it will save you lots of laggy flying around and bungie walking over sim boundaries.....




Now, some of your humans may be old enough to remember the Mouse Trap game, and Nawlins Streeter has faithfully reproduced it here for your amusement...





for those of you unfamiliar with the game its a Heath Robinson type construction produced for the general amusement of kids in the 60’s or 70’s...somewhere around that time, back in the mists of antiquity....

You might need Nawlins to reset the green man to get the full effect....stand under the cage as it descends.






and the DMV is well worth a visit, right next to the mousetrap game.
Poid has a well written interview with the madman (well.....genius/madman) that made it all....here..
You can drive a spaceship, a fairy cake, an office chair....etc out into the desert....






Mr Bones .. here....is the sort of person that always leaves you with a wry smile..... I love most everything he builds. Tongue-in-cheek is a great starting point to design....






Poid has written a great interview with Selavy Oh ...here... and If you want a bit of fun, I can definitely recommend a visit....go smash some geometry.



If you haven’t yet been to see The Tower...well...you should, I think. It's built by Frigg Ragu and Alpha Auer.
Alpha Auer is a very talented builder and has provided free, high-class avis for you to play around in. Frigg has forgotten more about animations than I will ever know.


If you fancy doing NOTHING....then go see nothing by Naxos L.
I did enjoy doing the bunny hop, but then, as I have said before, I’m easily amused....







And, last but not least two builds I would have in my backyard... firstly, madcow cosmos.
here
Enjoy it just for the quality of the build, it is better than any monument or archeological site you could ever find on the atomic planet...






and....a person I don’t know much about, Marcus Inkpen and a great build....here...


Then.....happening more or less NOW.....(that's Wednesday......21st Oct. .)
Party....

“It's time to light up the playa night again!
Come and join the Lamplighters as we walk north, from Lamplighter Village, to Center Camp, The Man and The Temple, lighting roadside lamps along the way.
After the procession we will dance and drum at The Temple, and illuminate the night with fire, from SL sunset to sunrise. That's 7:30 to 8:30 PM SLT.
FREE drums and gifts at Lamplighter Village. Drums available at The Temple too. Come PARTY with us! :-)))”



Now, if that doesn’t keep you amused...there’s no hope for you.
.......that should be enough for a few hours......
