Virtual Moves (is) Open Source
The code behind virtual moves released open source.
This friday we had the last reception on the Danish National Gallery where the final two artworks were launched. I have spend some time organizing and refining the scripts which i have developed for the installations in Second Life. Jacob Sikker Remin submitted his work in Arduino and Processing for memory SLot. I have encouraged all of the artists to submit there own work as well.

Virtual Moves
Art in Second Life.
Through the past few weeks i have been occupied with the implementation of VIRTUAL MOVES in Second Life. An experimental art project by Tagging Art investigating the virtual universe and its uses as a platform for education, art, and culture. Some of the works will take on physical form in the u.l.k. exhibition rooms at the Danish National Gallery. But the artworks primarily exist in Second Life. If you can’t make it to Copenhagen, do come by as your avatar!

From Blogger to Wordpress through Radiant CMS
Content Management Confusion
After many problems with my Radiant Installation on my Ruby on Rails container at Media Temples grid service i have decided to dump the development of the Radiant Site and i have gone with Wordpress instead. I really like Radiant CMS and its simple and logical structure, it has a sort of grace. As do Ruby. But i found myself unable to solve the problem that would sometime cause my Radiant site to display nothing but a 502 Error.I sought help on the mailing list but got no answer so far. And (mt) gave poor support on the subject. I know of workin Radiant installations on (mt)s (gs) are out there, and i would very much like to use radiant for future projects. So if your the one with a healthy installation i would very much like to hear how you did it!For now im off with wordpress which i am very satisfied with, but it certainly doesn’t have the grace of ruby and radiant, however there is an enormous community to seek support from, not to mention the wide selection of plugins and themes. …it just works!
Gridserver at Media Temple
Lately i have been looking for a new host, that would give me more flexibility and performance in order to experiment with web applications. My first project is to evolve accidentdesigns.com which i moved to the gridserver from my old host.
Currently my idea is to make Accident Designs more of a personal brand covering what i am. Instead of the corporate Second Life focus its has now. My main expertise will still be Second Life, ad least for a while until i get better at something else.
With the website i am experimenting with freemind as the structure of the site. Through a flashviewer my vision is to merge it with a cms and create a simple site build around the mindmap including a blog. This blogger blog or perhaps directly hosted within the cms. This is my thoughts right now but i don’t seem near a solution yet so the old site will still be available at accidentdesigns.com/old
If you have feedback on the new site, i would love to hear from you!
