Several months ago, I made my first Second Life Machinima, " I'm a Pianist In Second Life " after discovering Robbie Dingo 's instruments. (I I was little afraid that I might end up not only wasting time making music videos in Second Life, but actually composing a theme song.

There is so much happening in Second Life with nonprofits, educational institutions, museums, and libraries that it is hard to keep up. The amazing Wayne MacPhail has been helping the Alzheimer Society of Ontario and Second Life Library 2.0 curator Shadow Fugazi put together a photo exhibition in Second Life.

When people talk about museum projects in Second Life and other virtual worlds, I'm often disappointed by the short-sightedness of the vision. It's a machinima (video) by Robbie Dingo, a 3D recreation of Van Gogh's Starry Night. But was I with those people in Second Life?
