LifexLife=Squared Life: an explanation of the reason why Gwyneth Llewelyn rocks



Today I received a mail from Gwyneth Llewelyn, one of the most influential residents of SL. She decided to support my campaign against the criminalization of SL. I was very happy when I received her mail, but I was still more happy when I read her message and saw her pictures. She got quite nervous because making the portrait she always made an unappropriate smile and that did not fit that particular moment. So the beautiful Gwyneth suddendly changed her expression, and found a suitable face for that picture. Here you can see the result. Here is what I call an idea behind a concept. Let's say it's a squared concept, in the line of all the people who consider Second Life in a most incisive way, like it was "Squared Life", a stronger way to live and to think. Just to say that you rock, Gwyn!

I am not alone anymore in my campaign






Here are some friends who decided to support my campaign for Second Life, that today was mentioned by Francesco Longo (Isaia Carter) in a feature in Il Riformista.
This world has 7 millions of residents: we must not let that a few bleak people injure the reputation of Second Life with unspeakable behaviors and repugnant acts, that's for sure. We must fight the cybercrimes.
But we must also claim a correct and documented information. In the pictures, rom above, Sven Neumann, Chris Tower, fotoreporter, Domenico Quaranta (art curator, art critic and journalist), Matteo Penzo (Head of IT of Gabetti) and Jamie Vertes.

Stop the SL criminalization!


These days the italian press is representing SL as a bad and dark world.
I don't subscribe to this point of view. As I say in my book SL is very eclectical, art oriented and full of creative people. Don't let that a few people destroy the reputation of this world!
Let's fight the crimes in Second Life but let's also contribute to know this world better!
For this reason, I launch a campaign against the criminalization of SL and I invite all the ones who read to send me a photo of their avatar like the one I posted, taken in Imogen (227, 253, 28).

Frank Koolhaas is temporarily dead

Yesterday I tried to log in Second Life and I had a bad surprise: my account was disabled.
Since yesterday Frank Koolhaas is temporarily dead.
I don't know why (the first thing I did was to check my credit card payments!) and I hope they will solve soon the problems.
This is a pity, because Frank had to go to an anniversary party and he has other meetings scheduled.
Anyway, just to see the interesting side of the question, it is an occasion to know how you feel when you miss your avatar. It is a very bad sensation: you figure he is like a relative, or at least as a very good friend. I am really sorry. Since yesterday Frank Koolhaas is someway in the cyberspace, like he were dead.
I hope that he will be born again soon, since I figure he will come back to life (to his Third Life?) in the office hours.
