I got my head checked, by a jumbo jet.

Ok, we admit it, we have a problem. DUFI stencils are not getting any smaller. We have just completed our biggest DUFI to date - a 14.3x2.1M wall at Malliag High School.

The group we were working with were not the noisiest bunch we have worked with, but they had some great ideas, worked like weevils and created a stencil to be proud of.

Couldn't get no cooperation if I tried

Well, another DUFI has been born. We recently completed workshops with a group of future stencil artists in Brora. The project was sponsored by the Brora Cooperative and the 2x2M paneled stencil will be fixed to the side wall of the building.

Thanks to the COOP for being such great sponsors – and for cooperating (badum-ching!) – the blog title is the only song lyric I could find with the word cooperation. Yea I know the song is ‘I can’t get no satisfaction’, but thanks to Sesame Street we have the alternative lyrics – go on, YouTube it, you know you want to.

Art Sanctuary writes for SLEnquirer

A New Look …

Do you know that there are more than 500 galleries in Second Life?
In Second Life art and culture flourish more then ever before. Each day there are new exhibitions opening, new cultural events organized, and it is difficult for you to decide which galleries or events to visit. SLEnquirer asked Art Sanctuary, Raspirit Heron and WieBenIk Beaumont, to write a weekly art and culture page to help you in your selection. We are very proud to start this week with this page.
We don't want to give a list of all events happening next weekend, in a subjective way we select only the ones we hope will give you a nice time by visiting the artists or the events.
The Art Sanctuary wants to promote art which uses Second Life opportunities as much as possible and we will focus on events which combine different art expressions, such as music, story, poems, paintings, building.
Raspirit and I are very subjective in our selections, it is not an evaluation of the artist or event.
Each week we will have three important topics;
We will report on a past event (a pity you weren’t there - you missed it!)
Events happening next weekend
Featured article or interview, focus on an important person, event, SL site

Next weekend events

The SLEnquirer and the Art Sanctuary want to publish an overview of the next weekend events, excluding repeating events. It is not an ordinary event calendar! We only include the events the newspaper reader wants to experience, because it’s new, it’s appealing and the reader looks for quality time. If you organize an art or cultural event then please send an IM to Raspirit Heron or WieBenIk Beaumont or a mail to SLArtSanctuary@hotmail.com. Please include in your message the date and time (we only use SL time!) and the type of event. Please add also an appealing short description (maximal 50 words), convincing the reader. You can also add a small picture or logo (jpeg, maximal 250 on 250). We expect your event description not later than on Monday evening. We prepare the publishing on Tuesday morning.

It features happy encounters with magic and wonderment. It's a painter's dream and a poetic sanctuary. The Art Sanctuary as the muse of poets and story tellers, this is the theme of the contest.

The Krystal Epic Shopping centre (http://slurl.com/secondlife/Seranil/95/168/21) features a brand new line of Krystal Spheres. Taking advantage of the power of Second Life, these unique spheres create each a “Total Environmental Experience". They are individually themed with matching furniture.

And there are nice prizes to win!
The Best poem and short story receive each 1500 L. Krystal Epic adds also a discount of 50% on all products bought at the Krystal Epic Shopping Centre. For the king and the queen in the dream, the Art Sanctuary gives the king-size, romantic Dreamers bed. It is based on the "Dreamers" painting made by Raspirit Heron.The runner up Poem and Story receives each 500 L.

Like a bridge over troubled water.

Here is the fifth stone to go down in Inverness, located on Bridge street, just at the top of Church street.

Way back in the year of yon, the River Ness flood severely, and swept away the main bridge. However, like true Invernessians most folk stayed in the lofts of their crofts.

Magical Evening

I've been trying to find words....
and I know that there are many many... '
wonderful', and 'very special',
'super', 'grand' - 'incredible!'
They're there, like red and shiny apples ready for the picking
And I pick them -
one by one I put them in my basket
Apples last a long time I don't have to eat them now
I can even paint them if I want to in a still life
And paint will turn to sunny fruity smells I think
as I am reaching for the golden apple all the way on top
That's the one!
That's the word!
The word is 'Magical'!
(Raspirit)

We want to thank everyone who came and made this official opening of the Art Sanctuary a truly memorable evening:
- Chelle, who voiced us through the program and gave us all the sweet music to dance to;
- Enniv Zarf, whose most beautiful piano music put a real sparkle on the whole event!
- And most of all, we thank all of you, friends and new aquaintances, who took the time to come and celebrate with us!
- And our regrets about SL limitations that prevented so many more who expressed their wishes to come.

What's that coming over the hill, is it a monster?

The street texts in Inverness are chugging along nicely. Here is the text for the fourth stone to go down. It has been placed outside the Old High gates, a site with a lot of history - St Columba apparently had a church here. On his way to Inverness the saint met the big bad Loch Ness Monster, but duly chased the beastie off. Hence the text on this stone.

The other day I heard someone say that "every third book you read should be from outside your own century."

WELCOME!

I think it's high time we laid it out there on the line

Ok, first things first - sorry! Sorry it has taken us an age and a half to update this. Thankfully that is because we have been busy, as opposed to sitting playing the new PS3.

Here are a couple of photos of the stencil we did for Go North. As we as an image of banners on the Go North Stage at Rock Ness. As you might guess, we were not so bothered about taking photos as we were about dancing like myrmecophobics on an ant hill.

NEW OPENING DATE - SEPTEMBER 2 - 07

We have decided to postpone the official opening until September 2!

For the opening we wanted to have a "Seahorse Chariot" system. It will guide you through the whole Art Sanctuary site, giving the visitor all nice places to see and to visit in detail.
The development and the configuration of the "Seahorse Chariot" takes more time than expected, so we have to postpone the opening with 2 weeks.
The "Seahorse Chariot" is also used as the internal transport system for the Art Sancturay.

Best greetings
from Raspirit Heron and WieBenIk Beaumont

It's official: The Art Sanctuary will be moving - to an island;
Not just yet, but soon! An exciting Stage 2 in the evolution of the Art Sanctuary!

Living at the Art Sanctuary?

Have you ever considered living inside a Sun Flower?
Well, now you can!
For those who may remember the painting 'Waterway' (see enclosed photo) - this is now in the process of becoming an apartment building! Yes, you read right. No, not a big ugly one... a funny and strange one perhaps...and just tall enough to give a very nice view over the Sanctuary and the ocean surrounding the island!
We have started a list of those potentially interested, so if you fancy the idea, don't hesitate!
(IM any questions:))

Thanks to all who made the opening of the Art Sanctuary such a special occasion!

To see all the people walking about in this 'painted universe' - meeting and talking with many of you - and to hear what your experience of it is - is just a little bit beyond description:), and fantastic!

This is stage 1; the Sanctuary is evolving - and we hope you come again and again, enjoy and bring friends.

Also want to thank you for the purchases - these enable the continuation of the vision.

Don't hesitate to IM any questions, requests, or comments - we love to hear from you!

Bugs in my pockets, Bugs in my shoes.

Well, it has been busy time in the DUFI den lately. We have just completed a guerrilla marketing campaign for the Go North music festival.

The festival was over four days, 7-8 June in Inverness and 9-10 June at one of the stages at the Rock Ness music festival. Some absolutely brilliant music. I think the best act for us was Oppenheimer (www.oppenheimermusic.co.uk) - if these guys don't become huge I will eat one of Fin's hats.

Anyway - our campaign included: limited edition A2 Posters, A3 fly posters, badges, limited edition T-shirts, badges, info packs and two stencils that we sprayed directly onto the road in Inverness city centre.

There are a small number of posters left - if you want one, drop us an email and we will post one out to you.

We will post more images over the next couple of days.
