Pink Floyd - In the Flesh! Or is it In the Mesh? Ernest and I spent all day bringing album cover art to life today. A different spin on art, but the installations are pretty amazing to see! Come by Battersea and see for yourself!

The Art Factory is about art and artists. At The Art Factory, we display art; we appreciate art; we learn about art; and, we promote art. We have over a dozen galleries dedicated to in-world artists, where they show their innovative creations. As such, we are beginning a feature called Meet the Artist.

This week we want to introduce to you, the very talented Nice Minik.

Ms. Minik, can you tell us a bit about yourself and your art?
My interest for VL-Photography started back in InworldZ with some photos of dancing Avis.
In 2017 the "Nice Minik" on OSG was created to try out "hypergriding" and to build a photo-studio with backdrops and "flat" lighting for Avi photo sessions.A visit of Ellen and Ernest in my first little gallery changed my virtual life.
Since that day I explored the photo-features of Firestrom and tried a lot of light-effects to make my inworld-photos more interesting. It comes in handy to be a prim builder (for certain backgrounds) and I also learned to create poses in the meantime.

And what are you doing artistically now?
Nowadays I can display model-sessions and themed series at "the Art Factory". And I was able to create some issues of the Stark Magazine.

So, what's the motivation behind your work?
Some of my work just tries to show beauty. Some may be a bit provocative. But I always try to find the mood, lighting and angle to take photos, that "tell a story". And sometimes I can even achieve that goal.
One thing stayed consistently through my development as an inworld-photographer: what you see is what I saw. That means, that I never do after-works on my photos.

What do you enjoy most about creating art in virtual worlds?
Besides that, I very much like to show virtual life in a way, that makes viewers enjoy what I enjoyed or maybe get an impulse to think about certain aspects.

Thank you for the interview, Ms. Minik!

Please stop by The Art Factory Reloaded and check out Nice Minik's art! It won't disappoint!

I worked out a solution for initial sitting bug in the NPC Horse (script by Shin Ingen) where the avatar sinks through the horse when wearing an AO.
In the NPC horse script by Shin Ingen in under run_time_permissions(integer perm) FIND
if (perm & PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION)
{
llStopAnimation("sit");
//llStartAnimation("man-stop");
switchAnims("idle");
}
and REPLACE with
if (perm & PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION)
{
list anims = llGetAnimationList(llGetPermissionsKey());
integer len = llGetListLength(anims);
integer i;
for (i = 0; i < len; ++i) llStopAnimation(llList2Key(anims, i));
//llOwnerSay("Permissions Accepted");
switchAnims("idle");
}
If you don't like coding, just hop over to Neiferleaf and fetch the boxed new horse rezzer at the landingpoint.
Enjoy

Living with friends ...
Amazing community
wir sind mal wieder mächtig stolz auf unsere Leute. Einfach weil sie sind wie sie sind,
weil sie " living with friends" nicht nur als geklauten Slogan nehmen,
sondern dieses feeling jeden Tag leben. Dafür sind wir sehr dankbar .

Ein aufregendes Jahr liegt hinter uns.
Wir hatten Verluste.
Manche taten weh, manche weniger.
Wir hatten aber auch Gewinne
Der größte Gewinn war
Teil einer funktionierenden, lebensfrohen, lebendigen Gemeinschaft geworden zu sein.
Teil eines Grids zu sein,in dem Freundschaft nicht nur ein geklauter Werbeslogan ist.
Teil eines Grids zu sein, dass eigenständig zurecht kommt.

Dafür sind wir sehr dankbar. Unseren Bewohnern und allen, die uns dies ermöglicht haben, wie auch unseren zahlreichen Besuchern.
Möge die Zeit der bollernden Heizungen und prasselnden Kamine die Herzen der Menschen erwärmen und der Duft der Tannenbäume
all den Menschen die schlechten Gedanken vertreiben

Wir wünschen Euch allen ein besinnliches Weihnachtsfest, einen sensationell schönen Start ins neue Jahr und bleibt gesund.

Euch allen ein besinnliches und herzerwärmendes Weihnachtsfest

wünschen Euch Nasti und Rudi vom Soul Grid

🔹 Final Statement from Ms Kal, Founder of Lagniappe Grid 🔹

This is my final word on this matter......
A griefer came into my region, broke into my home, and rezzed vile and disgusting objects.... He violated my sanctuary ... my healing journey, my life’s work.... The moment I discovered it, I banned him, reported him to my host Unadecal Masala, and locked everything down.... Later I learned he had created multiple alts and moved on to other grids.... That is the truth....
This is what followed....
Diamond (I AM WATCHING YOU)... you chose to drag my grid into your public meltdown, smearing my name with vile accusations without ever once coming to me directly... You claimed this man was “connected” to my grid... He was not... He is not.... He was never a resident here.... Lagniappe Grid is not a public playground .... it is my home..... No one “lives” on my grid except my sister, Barbie, and me.... That’s it.... This man broke into my home, damaged it, left vile things, and moved on to others.... To call that a “connection” is slander, plain and simple.... Josh Boam (AviWorlds) .... when I came to you privately, asking for respect and correction, I was met with dismissal, called crazy, and blocked.... If that is how you run your grid, fine... That is your choice.... But don’t expect me to sit silent while you and your staff allow my name and my grid to be dragged through the mud....
Let me be absolutely clear..........
The man who rezzed that filth is not a resident of Lagniappe.....
My grid is private, sacred, and personal.... It is not a stage for griefers or a scapegoat for your accusations.... Child avatars in sexual contexts will never be tolerated on Lagniappe.... Not yesterday, not today, not ever.... I didn’t know about this smear until Wendy and Lizzy brought it to my attention .... because I mind my own business, in my own world, building something deeply personal and meaningful.... I don’t spend my time slandering others without proof or without speaking to them first.... I came privately first.... I gave both of you more grace than you gave me.... What I received instead was hostility and venom
So this is it..... My receipts are posted.... My truth is documented.... My conscience is clear.... Keep my name and my grid out of your mouths.... You don't even have enough integrity to apologize .....
