VR spaces and ‘being yourself’

19 April 201714 May 2019 Tizzy Canucci

‘Be yourself in VR’: but you’re never alone in the new Facebook Spaces Facebook clearly would not want you to be anything else, as their real name policy well demonstrates. A singular identity means they can easily track you and collect your data, and sell advertising on the back of it. I remember friends ranting […]

Change: the nature of Second Life

21 June 201420 July 2015 Tizzy Canucci

The last post featured  Annwn Willows, and Joanna Corith has just announced that it will be closing on the 26th June. So you have less than a week to go see it, and I’m going to take this as a good excuse to share another shot from when I was there last. Such is Second […]

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 […]

Two Friends Chatting in Second Life, by Tizzy Canucci

Two Friends

1 May 201320 July 2015 Tizzy Canucci

A simple scene of quiet conversation. Two friends on a bench in Second Life while their real life bodies sit half way around world from each other. Here their minds meet in conversation in a way that only can be achieved through re-embodiment in a virtual world, by sharing the same space, of seeing and […]

Ionic Spell : Broken Barrier

26 March 20133 April 2019 Tizzy Canucci

Ionic Spell : Broken Barrier, a photo by Tizzy Canucci on Flickr Things come and things go. And in Second Life, there is constant change. This is a sim I particularly liked, but the last time I teleported there I ended up at the bottom of a watery ditch. As you do. This sim was […]

Imogen and the Pigeons

20 March 20133 April 2019 Tizzy Canucci

Bryn Oh’s latest art installation in Second Life is Imogen and the Pigeons at Immersiva. As fascinating as ever, it is a journey through a story in virtual space. It took me two visits to get these shots… I was just too fascinated by it the first time. I needed to pick up a slurl, […]

Visiting MOSP

19 March 201313 May 2019 Tizzy Canucci

Fluttering By Taken at the LEA Machinima Open Studio Project (MOSP). I’d tracked this down by landing up on Chic Aeon’s blog. Despite having a list of places as long as my arm, I went off on a whim. The first impression on landing, as windlight adjusts to the sim settings, is a beautiful softness which […]
