Soundtrack of SLife

Having an avatar in Second Life® enables you to live a(n unscripted) real-time animated story complete with hero, villain, love interest(s), drama and comedy. Just like in television or the movies.

Well, maybe that's a stretch for a piece of 'Avatar' audience, shame on me, but in a way, it's true. We (the Molaskey's Pubbies) are accustomed to the beauty and social graces of a digital platform. I've claimed for years that SL™ replaces television viewing with interactive entertainment. SL'ers have quietly seen and experienced the stunning beauty of an interactive digital world for several years now, but there are millions of people just learning about it by way of the celluloid world. Perhaps James Cameron was so deeply inspired by SL™ that he personally (heavilly) funded and developed a screenplay depicting a conflict between the complexities of man, machine and nature. Whatever the source of inspiration, the movie 'Avatar' is breaking new ground and generating a global buzz. Movie fans with little previous knowledge of the 3D digital world online are navigating their way to Second Life® to have a closer look. We're seeing new avatars around the Pub as a direct result. Whether or not they arrive on the 3D scene to resolve interdimensional conflicts as seen in the movie, people with different skills and interests from around the world are creating and maintaining meaningful friendships as avatars.

At Molaskey's Pub, somewhere in the background of this cultural phenomenon, there is music. Music defines atmosphere, sets the mood, evokes memories to share and provides inspiration. It is a source of rhythm, for our biorhythm. Music is art. It is universal and multi-dimensional. At Molaskey's Pub, music provides the soundtrack to an amazing SLife.
