Visiting Asmita Duranjaya's "Fractal Art" Exhibit in Osgrid

 I belong to a group called Cercle Fafner, which sends out announcements of art exhibits and related activities. I had been visiting the artist Asmita Duranjaya's exhibits in Second Life ever since I had seen her "Oracle", but this time when I got an announcement of her newest exhibit, it was in Osgrid, another virtual world.

It turns out that my regular Firestorm viewer only works for Second Life, you have to use FirestormOS viewer to get to Osgrid and some other virtual worlds.


'The History of Fractals' in Osgrid

'The History of Fractals' exhibit is on a lower floor. I learned a lot about the different kinds of fractals and the people who discovered or invented them. There is a display of Asmita's fractal art on the upper floor. Visit the lower floor first, and then see if you can solve the crossword puzzle on the upper floor. 

A related exhibit, "Reconnaisance in a Time of Darkness", a shared art installation, is nearby.

A shared exhibit. Information on artists is on the perimeter.



Back in Second Life, Asmita Duranjaya's alt, Giridevi Duranjaya, currently has a skybox gallery in  http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Hardly%20There/132/76/2998 with retrospectives of her work and links to a wide variety of resources. 

I am sorry to see residents leave Second Life for other worlds, but I can understand why an artist whose works are large scale would want to find less expensive space.

I re-visited SLEA recently, and while it is an amazing place, there is only room there for half a dozen large installations at a time.
