She is brimming with mystery ... come step into a faction of her TV installation world.
Her work is now showing in Gallery Room 1 at the aho museum here ... more » »

For some new web site development work on the NMC server, we have (hopefully) seamlessly moved the NMC Campus Observer. The new, improved, 3 keys shorter URL is:
http://sl.nmc.org/
Note that all old URLs such as http://www.nmc.org/sl/ and http://www.nmc.org/sl/2006/06/12/seriously-engaging-movie/ will automatically be routed to the new URL, so no bookmarks are broken or hurt.

Thanks to conflicting schedules, I haven't had the chance to sit in on a Teacher's Buzz session in a while. So, getting back into the game yesterday for a special session that allowed seasoned Second Lifers, not-so-noob-anymore noobs, and educators from the TCC Online Conference to meet and greet was an absolute treat!
The conversation was fast and furious, both in the public forum, and in IM back channels - some of us caught up with each other ;-). Questions crowded ... more » »
