Bringing live music in the Opensim. Rocking the Metaverse 2nd show!

Yestarday was a great day for the Metaverse development. Rocking the Metaverse made its day in the OpenSim (Reaction Grid). Doubledown Tandino, Slim Warrior and Dizzy Banjo performed in a great way and we in the audience had the chance to listen to amazing live music in the Opensim sceneries of the Reaction Grid.

Apart some minor issues, everything was fine. Opensim proved to be a good platform for live music. Sure, there are some issues to improve as the avatar capability for sim and others. But the line is drawn. Below you can find a series of footages captures during the show.

Reminder: next week Rocking the Metaverse will move to Metaplace

Opensim Community. Its growing on Koinup

Along with more traditional virtual worlds, The OpenSim community is quickly developing on Koinup. So I'd like suggest you to join some group related to Open Sims.

At first, I invite you to have a look at Cyberlandia
Cyberlandia is an italian grid, based on the Open Sim platform. It's quickly growing and it is one of the most important destination for metaverse people from Italy

Then, I invite you to have a look at Avatar Hangout
Avatar Hangout is one of the most structured and well done OpenSims. Enjoying this place (and group) you have the clear impression the Opensource movement is doing great things!

Enjoy these groups now!

Seeking a good poser in the metaverse

We have just created the Koinup Group: The best poses of the metaverse
The goal of the group is to share informations about posers and poses available in the Metaverse. Currently only a bunch of worlds are allowed in the pool (mainly Second Life, The Sims, OpenSim, IMVU), this is because only these worlds are allowing members to create poses....

Each time a new virtual world will provide users with the chance to create their own poses, we will add that on the group! Enjoy now and invite your friends to do the same!

Icarus Robbiani's "Trigger" featured on NWN

Says Icarus Robbiani To Hamlet Au: "I have duplicated the background layer to create the frame effect," and continue "then I used first a glow effect and after the 'Soften Portrait', finally I have applied with a new layer the texture 'Antique Texture' with blending mode 'Overlay'."

Trigger is one of the most fashinating photos by Icarus and you can read the story behind this pic, here on NWN

New World Notes use to feature Koinup Works on the New World Tableau Column so I suggest you to let Hamlet knows about your works, and contact him on his Koinup profile (SL Hamlet)

He is most interested in Second Life and Open Sim pictures...

Open Sim: welcome on Koinup!

During the OpenSpace debate, some Koinup members asked us to make available an Open Sim section on Koinup. As you know we are a community based website and love complying with the community wishes! So Voilà, this is the new brand Open Sim to join on Koinup!
Open Sims residents can easily now share their avatars, screenshots, opinions and (virtual life) here on Koinup, and let the other Koinup members know about this world

The launch of the Open Sim world on Koinup means a lot for us and it show our engagement in the Metaverse Open Souce movement. We look forward to see these Open Sims worlds growing up and expand their influence over the whole metaverse and virtual worlds scene.
