Dear friends,
What a wonderful party it was on Tuesday night! Our DJ Anamari transported us to an extraordinary Sevillian Fiesta, giving us a one-of-a-kind experience! And what a wonder it was to explore the inspiring beauty of the city of Seville, a true jewel of Andalusia.
The details of the decorations enveloped us in a spell, recreating the atmosphere of Seville's fascinating plazas. Each element was a tribute to the artistic and cultural richness of this thousand-year-old city. The vibrant colors, soft lighting and intricate details transported us directly into the picturesque streets of this magical city.
And what about our incredible Anamari? With her artistry, she paid homage to Seville's rich musical tradition, making us dance to the enthralling rhythms of Spanish and Sevillian music. She led us on an aural journey through melodies that evoke the passions and emotions of this wonderful city.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Anamari, for giving us a taste of a little piece of your fascinating land, Spain! Your performance was a true celebration of the culture and joie de vivre that characterize Seville.
I can only thank each of you for once again making that evening so special.
I look forward to meeting again soon for more similar adventures, immersing ourselves once again in the beauty and energy of other beautiful evenings like this one.
See you again soon!

An easier way to update dreamgrid...
1.) Copy the entire dreamgrid folder.
2.) Rename the copy to whatever version of dreamgrid is inside it like this as a folder name ---> DreamGrid v. 5.24
3.) Name the other original copy "DreamGrid Production"
4.) Download and unzip the latest dreamgrid into the folder named "DreamGrid Production"
This way if there is ever a problem You can easily delete the current DreamGrid - Production folder, and then rename the last running copy to DreamGrid - Production. This way you will always have a running production environment with several backups of different versions of good grid environments.
Why you ask? Because if a bug bubbles up through the code, you may wish you could just delete the latest beta and just go back to the latest one that was running fine. This technique can save you hours of pain. I suggest you try it.

It's scientifically proven that laughter strengthens the immune response!

The most recent addition to Stag Hollow, the Saw Mill. This is the interior of a mid 19th century water powered saw mill with a large circular blade. We are trying to keep things in this region as close to the era and history as possible to give it a more authentic feeling.

This is called a lectica. It's a small bed that you are carried on by 2 npc's. Satyr Aeon built the original one, I fixed it up some here and there. You can drive it around like a car and up to 4 people can ride with you. :) You can make the npc's run by pushing the pgUp button. Here my NPC servants are walking across a narrow rope bridge carrying me. hehehe Satyr Aeon made this, I just tweaked some scripts and rebuilt the bed. :) Now with the new scripts you can link whatever you want to it, and it won't mess up the npc's because it gets their named prims prim numbers through script. Also I've fixed some issues with the original code. But credit should go to Satyr as he made it. There's one at wizardry you can copy for free. cyberdatastorm.com:8002:Wizardry And yes their legs actually walk when you are moving it around.

This THING. It's a globe of the sky which turns around the flat earth. A sun & moon also turn around the flat earth. The earth (map of your sim?) sits on the backs of 4 elephants which are standing on a turtle. I found this and it was very old and very broken. I fixed it. It is now at the school of magic on wizardry for you to copy. Note: The school of magic is not the magic store, it's the building you can fly over to beside the castle.

Some people see broken glass...

while others see possibilities.

Your only limitation is your imagination

Textures Trees & Scripts

Textures play a crucial role in conveying emotions in Opensim by adding depth, realism, and atmosphere to the digital environment. Here's how they achieve this:

Visual Representation: Textures provide visual cues that evoke specific emotions. For example, rough, jagged textures might evoke feelings of danger or discomfort, while smooth, soft textures might evoke feelings of calmness or safety. By carefully selecting textures, designers can create environments that align with the desired emotional tone.

Color Psychology: Textures are often accompanied by colors, and different colors are known to evoke different emotional responses. Warm colors like reds, oranges, and yellows can evoke feelings of excitement or passion, while cool colors like blues and greens can evoke feelings of calmness or sadness. Texture artists can use color psychology in conjunction with textures to enhance emotional impact.

Immersive Experience: High-quality textures can enhance immersion by making the virtual environment feel more realistic. When users feel like they are interacting with a lifelike world, they are more likely to become emotionally engaged with the experience. For example, a beautifully textured forest scene with sunlight filtering through the trees can evoke feelings of awe and wonder.

Association and Memory: Textures can evoke emotions through association with real-world experiences. For example, the texture of a cozy, well-worn sweater might evoke feelings of comfort and nostalgia, while the texture of rusted metal might evoke feelings of decay or abandonment. By leveraging these associations, designers can evoke specific emotional responses in users.

Narrative Support: Textures can support the narrative of a virtual world by reinforcing its themes and motifs. For example, a dystopian cityscape might feature textures that convey decay, oppression, and despair, aligning with the narrative's themes. By immersing users in a visually cohesive environment, textures can enhance emotional storytelling.

User Interaction: Textures can influence how users interact with virtual objects and environments, which in turn can evoke emotions. For example, a rough texture might make a virtual object feel challenging to touch, evoking feelings of frustration or determination, while a soft texture might make it feel comforting and inviting.

By carefully selecting and designing textures, creators can evoke specific emotional responses in users, enhancing the overall experience of Opensim.

A visit from @FerdFrederix today. Bringing more magic to the Sakuragawa region! He added horse stables and horses so that we can ride and explore this 3x3! He tested it out and said you can ride the whole way even going over the bridges! After your ride, you might be hungry so stop in at the Ramen House next to the Fish Market! Thank you, Ferd! three.hills.grid.outworldz.net:8002:Zensational https://youtu.be/okFpz1RpmnU?si=VHGHaXYU8cAk9a2Z

I felt the earth move under my feet in NYC today. Thank goodness my Brownstones in Indigo Industries are still standing.

We are so not used to earthquakes on the east coast but this is the second one this year. The one we had in January however I didn't feel at all but people up in the Bronx did. The one today I felt it. And it lasted too long to me.
Did any of you feel the quake today in NYC or NJ or PA or anywhere in the NorthEast of the United States?

Well it is definitely safe here at Indigo Industries in Indigo Blue Realm on Wolf Territories.
We have furnished apartments.Transitory housing, free for new residents of Wolf Territories for 10 days while you decide where you would like to call home. 300 personal prims, parcel security, radio, welcoming community. Come take a look. If you want to stay with us after 10 days. Take a look at our Amethyst or Lapis Lazuli Villages.

As usual, I had lots of windows up and didn't see a message from Captain Shadow until I closed my windows. Some mornings the kindness people extend just overwhelms me, Captain sent me this lovely Tea House for Sakuragawa, thank you Captain this is such an adorable house. I have it already placed and it looks incredible! Thank you!

Genesis Roleplay Grid will be off line for a couple of hours barring any issues to allow for an upgrade to a newer version and some other maintenance responsibilities. We'll be back as quickly as we can.

Ask and ye shall receive. The church I made was loved but, far too big for my friend's needs, so when I suggested something smaller, it was agreed I'd make a chapel and this is it. A really beautiful little stone chapel that has a wonderful warmth to it and it comes fully decorated and furnished. It's free, full perm, and waiting for you at the Star Jinn Palisade in our Masala Al Kohav region. Blessings and much love, Lavia.

Today there will be one more special event for visitors to the GavezDois Art Gallery: an hour-long show by the excellent singer Zoree Jupiter, at 1:00 pm grid time (20:00 GMT), at Velazquez Bonetto Space.

Good music in a stunning space is what we have to offer to anyone who visits us today. We meet there.

hg.osgrid.org:80:GavezDois

Amor fati is a Latin phrase that can be translated as “love of destiny” or “love of one’s own destiny”. It is used to describe an attitude in which one views everything that happens in life, including suffering and loss, as good or at least necessary.

And it is also the name of the new exhibition at Art Gallery GavezDois. It was brought from a large and magnificent exhibition taking place at Grid Craft World, entitled "La Terra Inquieta", where several artists, including us, were invited to exhibit art on the themes of War, Migrations and the Environment.

We were very moved by this exhibition which, from now on, will also be available to visitors at Osgrid.
