Story of Petit Greys : Lollito Larkham.
FRENCH
C'est l'histoire d'un "petit-gris", habitant de la planète Pluton, petite planète où règne le chaos, la misère, la pauvreté, la pollution, la guerre et la violence.
Il est persuadé que ce que l'on raconte dans les médias à propos des Terriens est faux.
Il est dit qu'ils sont mauvais, destructeurs, et que sur leur planète, la Terre, ils ne connaissent pas la paix et la justice.Il est dit qu'un jour, ils envahiront Pluton pour asservir ses habitants, les petit-gris.
Pour Petit-Gris, tout cela relève du mensonge par l'ignorance, et tout ce qu'on raconte au sujet des humains est faux.
Les Terriens sont, selon lui, une civilisation sans exclusion, sans racisme, sans misère et sans exploitation de l'homme par l'homme.
Une civilisation qui vit en harmonie avec son environnement.
Ils vivent libres, d'après lui.
Chaque jour, Petit-Gris guette le ciel, esperant leur venue, il lit la presse et se languit de pouvoir un jour quitter Pluton pour rencontrer les Humains, habitants de la planète bleue.
ENGLISH
It is the story of a "Petit-Gris", living of the planet in Pluto, a small planet where reigns the chaos, the poverty, the poverty, the pollution, the war and the violence.
Petit-Gris is persuaded that what we tell in the media about the "Humans" is false.
It is told it that they are bad, destructive, and that on their planet, Earth, they do not know either the peace or the justice.
It is said that one day, they will invade Pluto to enslave his inhabitants, the "Petit-Gris".
For Petit-Gris, all this is lies by the ignorance, and all that we tell about the human beings is false.
The Hearthlings are, according to him, a civilization without exclusion, without racism, without poverty and without man's exploitation of man.
A civilization which lives in accordance with its environment.
They live free, according to him.
Every day, Petit-Gris watches for the sky, for esperant their coming, he reads the press and is languishing to be able to one day leave Pluto to meet the Human beings, the inhabitants of the blue planet.
Lollito Larkham.
NOTES
All is model and textured in Blender + scripted by me + use of SL shaders for some objects.
There are meshes and sculpted prims also.
A lot of the textures are blender procedurals (dirt, splats, holes in walls, metals, woods, etc.).
Enjoy it as micro-theater to be explored with camera more than an interactive piece to walk in.
Of course you can enter !
Explore the angles, and see what happens :-)
Every sky setting should fit.. Be sure to set your LOD to 5 (about this, see the notecard outside the room, on the ground).
Another notecard tells you the story of Petit-Gris.
Thanks for coming , and enjoy !

Interstellar Princess : JO ELLSMERE AND DANIEL MOUNSEY/PYEWACKET KAZYANENKO
[23:13] ABOUT JO ELLSMERE AND DANIEL MOUNSEY/PYEWACKET KAZYANENKO:
Jo Ellsmere (Second Life avatar name)
utilizes SL as a pure medium for performance, mixed reality projects, and machinima videos. She considers her work to be 'small and personal,' and her interests lie mainly in the
interactions between people in virtual worlds, and the fundamental drives that motivate them (often a profound mystery to her). She explores these
ideas through performances with 'avatar bots' that use programming code and animations to enact mesmerizing looped interactions that can be viewed 24/7. In addition to her work in virtual worlds, Jo works with graphics, fiber, glass, wood (and food!) in various ways. She has also collaborated on a number of projects with the Australian performance artist, Stelarc.
[23:13] ABOUT JO ELLSMERE AND DANIEL MOUNSEY/
PYEWACKET KAZYANENKO: Daniel Mounsey (
Pyewacket Kazanenko in Second Life) is a
performance artist from Melbourne, Australia who has been experimenting with virtual art since 2007. Daniel has collaborated with the well-known Australian artist, Stelarc,
performing virtual art works in major galleries around the world, such as the Tate Modern in London and the Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh. Daniel is also a gardener and science fiction enthusiast.
[23:13] ABOUT
JO ELLSMERE AND DANIEL MOUNSEY/PYEWACKET KAZYANENKO:
INTERSTELLAR PRINCESS:
'Interstellar Princes' is the
multimedia virtual collaborative work of New York artist Jo Ellsmere and Melbourne, Australia artist Daniel Mounsey. With a nod to Stephen Hawking the artists note: 'Our goal is simple. It is a complete understanding of the universe, why it is as it is and why it exists at all.'
“Art is not a thing — it is a way,” Elbert Hubbard wrote in 1908. But the question of what
that way is, where exactly it leads, and how to best follow it is
something artists have been grappling with since the dawn of recorded
time and psychologists have spent decades trying to decode, outlining the stages of creativity, its essential conditions, and the best technique for producing ideas.
Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass, commonly shorthanded to Alice in Wonderland,
isn’t only one of the most imaginative and influential children’s books
of all time, but also one of the most enduringly alluring to artists
for visual reinterpretation — no doubt precisely due to its fanciful
nature and bold subversion of reality. Since John Tenniel’s original illustrations, the Carroll classic has been reimagined by such visionary artists as Leonard Weisgard, Ralph Steadman, Yayoi Kusama, John Vernon Lord, and even Salvador Dalí.
