All around Treet staffer. Texas mostly works on cameras, and show post production.
Live N Kickin director and SL music maven Delinda Dyrssen will be away from the show for a little while to spend some time with her family. We'll keep you posted about upcoming shows, but in the meantime we send Delinda and her family all our love.
Shakespeare continues to inspire creative storytelling and sparks the imagination no matter where the stage. One of the more interesting presentations during the 2010 Best Practices in Education conference was one given by Joff Chafer on Virtual Performance.
After explaining some of his own theater projects, he was joined by the Second Life theater troupe to demonstrate how they go about staging their version of The Tempest to live audiences. Taking on the challenges and limitations of the environment - while exploiting the benefits - the intrepid players appear to also be enjoying the creative process of bringing new 'virtual' life to the classic.

Metanomics celebrated its 100th episode this week with a gala party in Second Life held at JenzZa Misfit's Muse Isle. The entertainment was provided by multi-talented Metanomics host Robert Bloomfield along with a local Ithica NY jazz band, affectionately called The Reztones.
The "Metanomics Thank You Blues" is a fun shout out to all the people that have made Metanomics the big hit it is today, from its start in 2007. The song is blues only in style, not in sentiment! It's been a great ride for Treet TV as well. Congratulations to Robert Bloomfield and ALL the crew, volunteers and participants - past & present - that have made Metanomics a success.

If you listen to the song, you will quickly realize that there is an entire team of folks behind the scenes pulling it together each week. This is true for every show on Treet TV. Some shows have already passed the 100 episode mark, and others are approaching the milestone - but over the years Treet has worked with hundreds of dedicated people working together to make shows that inform and entertain.
We are fortunate and proud to have the opportunity to work with all of them. Hats off to Metanomics and all the Treet TV family of shows!
PS. The Reztones are:
- Al Hartland, Drums
- Brian Earle, Clarinet
- Doug Robinson, Bass
- Chad Lieberman, Piano
- Beyers Sellers, Vocals
The crazy dudes that have the need for speed (and broken avatar-bones) are featured in the SL website Destination Guide - top of the list for sports and games.

It's amazing and mind boggling to realize that a weekly Second Life event has been held EVERY Saturday for FIVE YEARS. RacerX Gullwing's wacky crazy silly brand of fun started on Thanksgiving weekend 2004 and is now an 'institution'. Showing the races on Treet TV has reached the 110th episode - a mere 2 years or so.
A lot has changed with the races over the years, but one thing has remained: It's a lot of fun and plenty of laughs. Join in. Try racing yourself, show up and watch the races in person, or just enjoy the shows.
