ChangHigh Sisters

To open our new season, Saffia and Elrik meet the ChangHigh Sisters - a performing arts troupe who are well-known throughout Second Life, where their popular performances draw significant audiences. Elrik and Saffia try some of the Sisters' acrobatic poses themselves, and discover a little of the deep spiritual and esoteric background behind the ChangHigh Sisters' Fireshow of Light, Life & Love. The programme culminates with the Sisters' unique show - staged especially for Designing Worlds - of stunning acrobatics with fire and dazzling colours, including inspiring narration and music from leading in-world and RL composers and musicians.

We'll be exploring some of the fascinating stations to be found on the routes of the Second Life Rail Road (SLRR) and talking with Mundsa Mayo and Marianne McCann of the Virtual Railway Consortium (VRC). And we'll be looking at the work of some amazing talented creators - both builders and scripters, as well as some of the communities that have grown around the railroad tracks too - both on the Second Life mainland, and in the themed environment of Bay City.

Hello everyone!

Welcome to the new website and the new forums! I hope we can see people in here discussing the shows - the issues - and what they'd like to see on forthcoming shows!

Saffia!!!! So brave you are, making the first forum post! I hope you like the new setup, and there are still more things coming, but I think we got things to the point where we felt things were "mostly working". Keep an eye out for bugs, and if you find them, our mission will be the squash em!

Our new season starts this week, and we have an exciting selection of topics lined up. We do hope you'll enjoy them. And don't forget, if you know somewhere that will be of interest to us or our listeners, on any grid, do let us know.

Saffia! I am so glad to see that you have procured this forum! I watched a couple of the videos of DW here on the TreetTV site, and they work marvelously well. I really enjoyed the Christmas show in Rothesey. My doesn't Elrik have a lovely home there!

Hi everyone! What a great new forum for us to gather and talk about the show. Elrik's right, we do have some really interesting places to take viewers this season, and the first one is...well, that would be telling. But I wonder, might giraffes be involved?

My question is if InWorldz is OpenSim than why isn't it on the OpenSim grid list?? http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Grid_List. There are other OpenSim grids that are not on this page besides InWorldz like Openlife.
