newBERLIN Art Festival Meeting - logged on 18th jan.

“You” = LunAr Bailey 

[11:22]  You: so, i think then we gonna start in english :)
[11:22]  Tom Lowe: k
[11:23]  You: is there anyone who has questions about the newBERLIN ART FESTIVAL?
[11:23]  You: who doesnt know what it is about, why we are doing that…
[11:23]  Clexane Qinan: ..not yet..
[11:23]  You: ok, everyone read the notecard and knows what we are starting?
[11:24]  You: thats fine….
[11:24]  Tom Lowe: i can´t see a clear “topic” is it just “art in SL” ? ^^
[11:24]  You: the main thing at these meetings we do here is, to plan the festival together
[11:25]  You: hm, the thing with the topic is a bit difficult….
[11:25]  You: we allow ANYONE whos is interested in art, to take part at the exhibition
[11:25]  Jord Aeghin: I think the art is, if we look at rl visitors, like they are exhibited and not us
[11:26]  You: so, everyonehas different ideas of art
[11:26]  You: the main thing is, that we want to build a network of rl art, sl art, rsl art
[11:26]  You: means….artwork with different aspects,but all concerning to sl
[11:28]  You: some people reflect mailnly the sl thing…..doing art in sl, sl pictures….snapshots….sl philosophy…
[11:28]  You: the others are rl artist….interested in doing artwork there, real exhibitions and so on, different perception….
[11:28]  You: some try to combine both
[11:28]  You: we want toput everything together :)
[11:29]  Tom Lowe: ^^ k
[11:29]  You: thats why everyone can take part….everyone shows his own images of worls…sl…rl…rsl
[11:29]  You: *world
[11:30]  Zenzi Voom: ok
[11:30]  You: more about all that, the philosophy of the festival you can readin the online blog
[11:30]  You: you find the links in the note
[11:30]  Jord Aeghin: but the different kind of perceptions is something nice to play in this exhibition I think
[11:31]  You: yes i also think so
[11:31]  Tom Lowe: *nods* ^^
[11:31]  You: it plays with quesions like “what is real” (life)
[11:31]  You: what is virtual
[11:31]  You: how virtual are we
[11:31]  You: what is the role of art in all that
[11:32]  You: ….we think, art is a medium to put the images of rl and sl together to rsl…
[11:32]  You: art is creating the network itself
[11:32]  You: you understand?
[11:32]  Jord Aeghin: well, we are real here in Sl I believe ^^
[11:33]  Clexane Qinan: ..what the hell is ‘rsl’?
[11:33]  You: hehe…perhaps
[11:33]  You: realsecondlife :)
[11:33]  Jord Aeghin: question is, is rl in the exhibition in SL as real as we are here? :)
[11:33]  You: the mixture of real life and second life
[11:33]  You: borders dissappear….
[11:33]  Clexane Qinan: …I can’t see this..
[11:34]  Kraftwerk Maximus: oh that rsl maust be a desise hihi ;) pycho :O
[11:34]  You: hehe, good question jord
[11:34]  You: what you you think about that, clexane ?
[11:35]  Jord Aeghin: clex, you are talking with us here, not in rl..so what is more real at this moment you writethat you cannot see this?!
[11:35]  Clexane Qinan: ..don’t know..RL ist RL, SL is SL.
[11:35]  Jord Aeghin: but you write it here at this moment not in rl ^^
[11:35]  You: i think its not easy to (trennen) :)
[11:35]  ParArt Gaffer: sure from rl to sl
[11:36]  Jord Aeghin: sperate/ decide
[11:36]  Jord Aeghin: seperate
[11:36]  You: thx
[11:36]  ParArt Gaffer: and than from sl in yor rl eye
[11:36]  You: yes…and art in sl also…plays with rl perceptions, but its an abstraction of rl, its just another medium….
[11:36]  ParArt Gaffer: input output and output input
[11:36]  Jord Aeghin: well, so what is reality when you see peolple moving on a tv screen in sl? the tv screen from your point is not real?
[11:37]  Zenzi Voom: rl and sl are no diffence, the emotions that appear in sl are real, because YOU feel it
[11:37]  Zenzi Voom: differnce
[11:37]  You: ya thats it
[11:37]  ParArt Gaffer: yes
[11:37]  You: what we have to discuss / decide…is, what we want to do on 15th february
[11:38]  You: everyone who has an idea should look on his one for a place in newBERLIN where he wants to place his / her artwork
[11:38]  Zenzi Voom: if we know that already?
[11:38]  You: it has to be written down in the online list
