The Art Factory

Say goodbye to Hollywood...

The closing of Origen (sp?) at Hollywood has me thinking about venues.
(They're closing, right? Or just that theater?)
What is it about venues?
I mean, you can perform anywhere, right?
Probably even on a sandbox if you wanted to.

What is it about a sense of place? A sense of... belonging to something or somewhere?
The old ballpark gets torn down, a new one goes up.
I remember seeing games at the Dome. Now, the Astros play at Minutemaid.
Saw games at Franklin County. And then Huntington.
(Of all my minor league ballcaps, The Clippers are the lamest, but still have a strange place in my head. Well, on my head.)

 

Old place, new place.
That's where that restaurant used to be, the one I liked.
Man, do I miss the salads and tacos at Cabo's.

In SL, Old Salt's Pub and Freudian Slip and others have faded from the grid. And memory.
Circe's never was quite the same after she died.
These days, After Dark first comes to mind.
What is it about these places?
What keeps it from being "same shit, different SLURL" ?

There's a lot of venues and theaters out there.
Big stages, small stages.
Some with runways, some without.
Fancy, basic... different seating, different styles.

Some stuff I think is important:

• Group joiner.
• Welcomer? Maybe? Is that annoying?
• Easy access to the seats.
• Adequate seating, a few different poses that don't jam my hand into my innards, and couples seating options. (I’m quite capable of sitting in an Adult sofa without staining the cushions every time, thank you.)
• Schedule.
• Posters for other groups, and DQ. (Gotta plug the DQ)
• Chat relays, because these places are huge, man. Or do they really need to be?
• Tipjar for the venue and group.
• Photos from past shows? Does this cause texture overload and thrashing?
• Who the owner and hosts are. Online indicators?
• Sponsors.
• Freebies and gifts. Or shops? Winds has shops, Debauche is part of Miss S, right?
• Rules, in a concise and simple notecard. Way too many long-winded notecards out there, man. Keep it simple, keep it brief.
• Lighting that does not disrupt performances.
• Personality in the build that distinguishes it from other venues.

What am I overlooking? (Yes, I left out "A wall or shelf for awards" because, man, fuck awards. But that's a rant for another post. I'll recycle my Thank Yous and repackage it for another day, but seriously, fuck awards.)

What do you think a venue should have... and shouldn't?

Don't Make Me Call The Dance Police, Take 2

Every week or so, I look back through the photos of Second Life dance performance that I’ve posted on Flickr.

Sometimes, I smile. Sometimes, I wince. And then there’s the times... well... you know...

I like to call this portion of our trip: Don’t Make Me Call The Dance Police.


Eva's tipjar is in some weird language... Dutch? Arabic? Pascal? HELP!


DON'T BLINK!

 
So. Very. Rule 34.

 
"Did I leave that curling iron on?"

 
Anybody else worried about the FBI finding their Club Image photos and...


October is coming?
 Shit, now all the acts are pumpkin spice.


Redneck Uber.

 
If only my bus stop looked like this.

 
Web Butt Shot!


I know this is a fantasy because nobody ever roots for the Jets.


Arthur! Who are your friends?

 
This is what was going on in the house next to Mr. Rogers.


Indiana Jones and The Temple Beth Israel.

 
"Dear Andy Serkis, you're fired."

 
Whenever someone wears orange hair in SL, yeah, they look like this.


Really ties the room together.

 
I know why the caged Pan sings.

 
Always, ALWAYS choose the gift wrap option.


The right way to teach high school Geometry.

 
Yes. Yes, you are.


From now on, when I play Monopoly, I'm imagining that this is the hotel. Oh, and the tophat is being worn by Oods. So sexy.

 
TRIVIA: If you drop a Debauche performer in any mailbox, they will be returned to their home stage with this postage pre-paid tattoo stamp.

 
Now on The Disney Channel... Dr. Doolittle 4.


"So, my website will let you hire cleaning services... maids who are actual mermaids!"


"KEEP THAT NOISE DOWN! I'M TRYING TO SLEEP!"


"You! Over there! Drink Bombay Gin, or I will kick you in the face!"


Please don't do the triple backflip... Please don't do the triple backflip... Oh my God, don't do the triple backflip...


Six drinks later...


This is why George Lucas isn't allowed to re-edit Star Wars anymore.


Yep. Another Web Butt Shot.

 
Someone send them a landmark to Betty Ford please.


And you mocked me for buying a crate of bottled water.


So meta.


Anybody else have the urge to fix that clock?

 
The Sixties called. I let it go to Voicemail.

 
Somewhere between Wicked and The Muppet Movie.


Our fine prison facilities at The Dance Police.


The Ministry of Silly Walks

.
ICE CREAM HEADACHES

 
Oh my God... someone actually called The Dance Police!


Um... okay, that's more like it.
 LOCK ME UP!

Thank you, and stay tuned next Sunday for the next thrilling episode.
