Art or Enchantment?

21 February 201513 May 2019 Tizzy Canucci

I’ve spent quite a bit of time recently looking at the Linden Endowment for the Arts (LEA) sims, but a couple of nights ago I moved off them and headed towards Black Basalt Beach and L’Arc-en-Ciel. I also recently came across a chapter in a book called ‘The Technology of Enchantment and the Enchantment of […]

Borderlands

9 February 20159 September 2022 Tizzy Canucci

Last year I wrote a blog post about Three Waterworlds, in terms of their place as liminal areas or borderlands in human imagination.

Falling Snow, Rising Lanterns: Nagare

14 January 201413 May 2019 Tizzy Canucci

It’s not often I browse the ‘destinations’ of Second Life. I’m not sure how or why the places find their way into this honoured tab, but I always have a long list of places in my inventory to explore. This, however, was a little gem. It’s not a big area once you teleport in, but […]

Five Years Old Today!

2 January 201413 October 2021 Tizzy Canucci

I’m sitting at home in Second Life, music playing, keeping an eye on the conversation box. Five years ago today, I first logged in. Why? Well, I was in my final year of a degree, and I’d written an essay on authenticity (in the sense Heideggar used it) in terms of online spaces. In putting […]

Modelmaking and virtual worlds

11 April 20139 June 2020 Tizzy Canucci

The River Wyvern, a photo by Tizzy Canucci. Goatswood is a representation of a Victorian village in rural England, somewhere in the Midlands, loosely based in appearance on Castle Combe in Wiltshire. It is a role play sim, but visitors can obtain a three day pass at Mortchester ticket office. The landing point is at […]
