Expo Center on Big City Life
My little showcase in Opensim on Big City Life sim for what you can do with AI software. In this video you see first AI generated video with Runway Gen 2 by me. Those are old right now. But you can see then the new work of Nicolas Neubert made with Runway Gen 3 alpha. I made some background film music with AIVA AI to round it up matching for the whole video. The Music of the Hoarfrost video is origin soundtrack of Ninja Tracks. This promo shows how fast and easy you can see the AI video installations in Expo Center just by walking in the square, if you have your mediaplayer in Firestorm on auto play. You walk in the square on ground and the video is showing directly. In Expo Center are right now 3 videos of Nicolas Neubert on tape you can choose with blue menu by clicking on the tape.
I try to update the newest development and show now also an example of Veo 2 (text to video) of Deepmind, which is astonishing what you can do already. The AI is developing rapidly and exponential. You can say already that new AI for video especially is changing every month. For all the AI software you can get and use I recommend to go in my AI research Center. You get all information about different AI and purposes with links to the websites there.
In the Expo Center you find also a lot of other works. Artists in opensim show their AI generated pictures like Pat Babii and Sergio Rodriguez but there is also analog art made in rl like oil painting of ieko and acryl painting of Essensual McMahon. If you are fan of classic artists like Caspar David Friedrich or Vincent van Gogh you will find it there, too.
You can reach directly the expo center with blue bus and train at Zoo railway station. From there just follow the hostesses that walk the path from railway station to expo center and you can even talk with them, while you both walk the path. Or drive by yourself with car and follow the signs to Zoo. Then you will come automatically to Zoo, open air pool and Expo center.

Was eine abgedrehte Eröffnungsparty des Stardust Club im Xenolandia Grid.

Selten soviel Spaß gehabt.
Nach einer Stunde habe ich meine schöne Playlist in die Tonne gekloppt
und die Wünsche der Verrückten im Publikum aufgelegt.
Bekommt ihr den Rest eben andermal aufgetischt. Ist ja wie bei Eintopf, aufgewärmt schmeckt eh besser.
Schon mal sorry, ich habe garantiert nicht alle Besucher auf den Fotos.
Es war einfach zu viel los.
Hier nun die Fotos. > https://bit.ly/3E4b7EF

View from our Penthouse Apartment on Park Avenue over Central Park. We can see from balcony the UFO over little New Jersey. wow. The Central Park alone is 3x1 big. Whole sim is 7x7 and with off sim mountains etc 8x8. You can do a lot of things in Central Park. Swim in lake, Windsurf, riding horses, go on Concert at the Central Park stage, gather to play chess ... and much more. Like you do in Central Park in New York City too. lol If you put on sunset or midnight environment it is the right ambient to enjoy and it is enough light everywhere. If you want some worrying scary scenes you can use the shared environment with fog lol Of course, most people use midday environment. But ambient is not the same then to enjoy all the different aspects to feel the sim alive with all the people and traffic. For videos you should look on my rumble account. I posted there more than 50 videos. Perhaps it is recommended for people with old computer to see all alive. My videos you can find here on 3 pages. Most are 1080 pt videos recorded with my MacBook.

Howdy guys!

The hat and gun shop has moved to a new building.
The old one became too small.
Buy your own rifle or revolver today and put on a hat.
Because without it you are not a man!

**A Tribute to Verna Avril: DJ, Creator, and Friend**
Today, we pause to honor and celebrate the extraordinary Verna Avril, a beloved DJ at Event Plaza, an accomplished builder, and a cherished friend to so many. Verna has recently been diagnosed with late-stage cancer, and while the news has left us heartbroken, her unwavering spirit continues to shine brightly in the time she has left.

For those who have had the privilege of knowing Verna, you know her as a force of nature. Her music has been the heartbeat of Event Plaza, where she transforms gatherings into magical experiences, spinning tracks that bring people together and create memories that last a lifetime. As a DJ, Verna doesn’t just play music—she shares her soul through every beat and rhythm.

Beyond her music, Verna is a visionary builder and creator. She owns and curates numerous regions, each a testament to her incredible talent and love for creating beautiful spaces. Her worlds are filled with life, imagination, and wonder—a reflection of her boundless creativity and dedication.

Verna’s style and charisma are as unforgettable as her music. Always impeccably dressed in her signature short black dresses, she carries herself with grace and confidence that inspire those around her. But it’s her warmth, kindness, and generosity that truly make her unforgettable.

In this challenging time, Verna has shown us the depth of her strength. Even as she faces this diagnosis, she continues to remind us of the importance of living fully, loving deeply, and creating beauty wherever we can.

As her community, let us rally around her with our love and support. Share your stories, your memories, and your gratitude for the joy she’s brought into your life. Let’s celebrate Verna Avril—not just for what she’s accomplished, but for who she is: a beacon of light, creativity, and love.

We don’t know how much time we have left with her, but we do know this—every moment with Verna is a gift. Let’s cherish these moments together and honor her legacy, now and always.

Stay strong, Verna. You are loved more than words can express. 💖

Aussie and I will be hosting an event to celebrate our friend Verna Avril. In the meantime, please post messages for her here as she cannot be in Opensim but can read this website. Thank you in advance for posting for her! I will make all the messages and stories into an online book for Verna.

Hi! I'm an Aussie who has been in virtual worlds (SL & OS) for nearly 20 years. I'm a tertiary educator. My undergrad students have done lessons in SL every semester since 2008. I've developed two regions on Kitely in the past: Chinese Island & 1820 Singapore. Sadly, both are no longer online.
