I came into SL to take care of some business, four hours after I had left the previous session, and to my surprise I noticed that Fael and Moon were still at the tea house. It turned out that they had created a little master piece performance, in which they could let an avatar sing a lovely German children’s song, together with an angelic posture and beautiful light effects all around the singing figure. I stayed for a while, to see the performance and to chat. Further below I include the 7 am morning session, with the chat log and comments sent to me by Fael, the guardian for that session. The picture toward the end was taken by Pia.
Fael Illyar: Hello Pema
Moon Fargis: the whole body moves:)
Pema Pera: hi there!
Moon Fargis: wb pema
Moon Fargis: we are still here since 1 am :)
Pema Pera: Good seeing you here
Pema Pera: wowowow
Pema Pera: amazing
Fael Illyar: Hello Dakini
Pema Pera: throughout my whole dinner!!
Dakini Rhode: hi!
Pema Pera: Hi Dakini!
Dakini Rhode: wonderful to see you folks here
Pema Pera: These people have done a marathon PaB
Dakini Rhode: i’ll be poking around in the garden a bit…
Pema Pera: wow
After Dakini had joined us too, the four of us chatted for a while, and then Spock joint us as well. So we had Dakini in the US, Spock in Spain, Moon in Germany, Fael in Finland, and me in Japan, all standing here together in front of the tea house in Rieul.
Fael Illyar: I’m not sure if you can call it PaB all the way through :)
Pema Pera: so we are going to get a monster chat log, right :-)
Pema Pera: oh, anything can be PaB
Pema Pera: as we know from the past :)
Pema Pera: What fun to have us here again from three continents
Fael Illyar: Well, if you’re intested in reading about what went on while Moon was making this scripted gesture :)
Pema Pera: Dakini woken up, me soon going to sleep and the three Europeans in between
Pema Pera: which gesture?
Pema Pera: onigokko?
Moon Fargis: no one second ill upload a fixed animation for it
Dakini Rhode: i heard the little angel singing…
Spock Yuitza: hello Pema
Faenik: ah :)
At that moment Moon started his performance, after he had rezzed a wooden stage on the lawn.
Pema Pera: oooooooo
Pema Pera: wunderbahr . . . . .
Dakini Rhode: wow
Pema Pera: clap clap clap ! ! ! !
Spock Yuitza: wonderfull
Moon Fargis: thanks wouldnt be possible without faels greaaate help in scripting
Pema Pera: so how did you do this, what were the ingredients?
Dakini Rhode: I see I’m about to be sucked into SL again…. :-)
Fael Illyar: Moon, does it still have something that needs fixing?
Pema Pera: yes, Dakini, it does seem so, doesn’t it :-)
Moon Fargis: no everything is great!
Pema Pera: one of those days . . . .
Moon Fargis: just have to attach it to another point
Pema Pera: If we leave Moon and Fael here for a week, we won’t recognize the place anymore . . . . nor the avatars :)
Fael Illyar: haha :)
Moon Fargis: hehehe
Faenik is a hairy black ball with eyes and ears.
Moon Fargis: hoe this works better
Moon Fargis: ohh no
Moon Fargis: not
Moon Fargis: hehe
Moon Fargis: ohh no
Moon Fargis: nonooo
Moon Fargis: noo
Moon Fargis: hehe
Fael Illyar: It’d probably be possible to stabilize it with a script but if you can modify the animation and stabilize it that way, that’s always better
Dakini Rhode: i did not think i would be serenaded by angels before my breakfast
Pema Pera: or after dinner for that matter :)
The performance very much reminded me of the Saint Lucia songs in Sweden, but the custom didn’t seem to be known much nearby, neither in Denmark, nor in Finland, as I was about to hear.
Pema Pera: Moon and Fael, do you know the Swedish custom
Pema Pera: of saint Lucia
Moon Fargis: no
Pema Pera: December 13 I believe?
Fael Illyar: no, doesn’t ring a bell
Pema Pera: wonderful song going with it
Dakini Rhode: amazing particle effects, too
Moon Fargis: the avatar still moves.. the priority i gave to the anim doesnt count…
Pema Pera: zusammen bringen . . . . .
Pema Pera: clap clap clap ! ! ! !
Pema Pera: wie schoen . . . .
Faenik is a hairy black ball with eyes and ears.
Fael Illyar: Moon did one of the particle effects and I did the other.
Dakini Rhode: sadly i recognize German but don’t understand more than a few words…
Here are the German lyrics:
.
Es leuchtet am himmel so wunderschön,
und doch so weit entfernt ein stern.
.
Manch mal da träum ich ich würde ihn sehn,
den goldenen stern, doch er ist so fern.
.
Oft wünsche ich er waehre nah,
ich könntem ein lied mit ihn singen.
.
Mit der kraft meines Traumes wird es wahr
und bald wird sie uns zusammenbringen
Pema Pera: wanna translate the text Herr Mond?
Moon Fargis: hehe
Moon Fargis: its hard to translate
Moon Fargis: but here is the lyric
Moon Fargis: from the english version
Moon Fargis:
.
The faraway golden star that twinkles in the night sky
Is the same color as the little bird that I looked up at in my dream last night
.
On sleepless nights
I sing songs alone
.
Together with the wind passing by
I pick up my thoughts and fly
.
The faraway silver moon that shines in the night sky
Is the same color as the wild roses that were blooming in my dream last night
.
Dakini Rhode: sweet!
Moon Fargis: but the german version is different
Moon Fargis: sadly
Moon Fargis: so the text isnt right
Moon Fargis: i willl have to go now.. THHHHHHHHHHHAAAANNKYOU fael
Fael Illyar: You’re welcome :)
Moon Fargis: i will see you later then we might talk about it again.. now i have to deliver this gift :)
Dakini Rhode: hello
Pema Pera: bye Moon!
Dakini Rhode: hmm
Moon Fargis: bye bye
Pema Pera: thanks a lot!
Dakini Rhode: bye moon!
Meanwhile Dakini had started to play with a Babbler version, an automatic translation engine that she had found. She gave us copies as well, but we had some difficulties getting it to work.

Dakini Rhode: i see i can give it away
Pema Pera: Dakini yes
Dakini Rhode: it is one of the buttons
Pema Pera: can you give it to Fael?
Fael Illyar: thank you :)
We kept puzzling over it.
Dakini Rhode: the button in the center allows you to give it away
Fael Illyar: ah, apparently some kind of server that gives out copies if you press the button
Dakini Rhode: i’m not sure how it works
Dakini Rhode: will need to read the instructions
Dakini Rhode: pema will you say something in German please
Faenik is a hairy black ball with eyes and ears.

Pema Pera: and I can only translate to English it seems
Dakini Rhode: there are a number of selections
Pema Pera: from various languages
Fael Illyar: This should translate my text now.
Pema Pera: okay
Fael Illyar: but doesn’t seem to work
Dakini Rhode: i have used this in the past, it worked ok
Pema Pera: hello
Pema Pera: はい
Pema Pera: hmm

Pema Pera: hi Ryusho!

Pema Pera: no
Fael Illyar: Hello

Dakini Rhode: nice to meet you, SlimeX
xFael:

SlimeX Grossman: hi

ryusho Ort: slimeX: Dakini is the owner here
Pema Pera: nice to meet you SlimeX!
SlimeX Grossman: oh
SlimeX Grossman: hi!
SlimeX Grossman: are u a group?
Dakini Rhode: Ryusho is making practice robes…
ryusho Ort: what is “blabbler”?
SlimeX Grossman salutes
ryusho Ort: hi spock
Faenik is a hairy black ball with eyes and ears.
Dakini Rhode: i can give you a copy, but it isn’t working for us…
Spock Yuitza: hi
I took the opportunity to give a quick PaB introduction.
Pema Pera: http://playasbeing.wordpress.com/ is our web site
Pema Pera: we get together here four times a day
Spock Yuitza: hello ryuso
Dakini Rhode: it is for translating languages
ryusho Ort: what does it do?
ryusho Ort: ic ic
Pema Pera: translate
Pema Pera: if it works
Pema Pera: :)
ryusho Ort: no wonder i saw pema talking in Japanese
Pema Pera: can’t make it work
Pema Pera: はい
Pema Pera: けど
Pema Pera: 自分ではなします
I said in Japanese that I was talking myself, to tell Ryusho that it is not the automatic translator writing the Japanese, but me typing directly on my keyboard. However, my short sentence was not clear enough, and this let to an amusing misunderstanding.
Dakini Rhode: i shall go read the instructions… in my spare time
Fael Illyar: 日本語です
SlimeX Grossman: can i do something quikly?
ryusho Ort: it says yes and but!
I had typed “yes, but … I talk myself” and I tried to indicate that I was not an “it” when I was saying it :-)
SlimeX Grossman: like pop something out?
Pema Pera: not it, me
Pema Pera: I wrote that
ryusho Ort: go ahead slimeX
Dakini Rhode: ok SlimeX
SlimeX Grossman: k
SlimeX Grossman: tks
Pema Pera: 日本語も話せます。
Pema Pera: 機会じゃなくて
SlimeX Grossman: oh crap
ryusho Ort: is working pema
Pema Pera: 人間です
ryusho Ort: why you say is not??
Hahaha, I had just typed “I can speak Japanese too; this is not a machine but a human being (typing)”. Ryusho still thought “it” was working for me :>).
Pema Pera: I am just typing that directly
SlimeX Grossman: everybody up!
Pema Pera: I can speak Japanese
Pema Pera: no machine involved . . . .
SlimeX Grossman: theres a unit up
SlimeX Grossman: where did my unit go??
Pema Pera: funny that you thought I was a machine, Ryusho!
SlimeX Grossman: see?
SlimeX Grossman: in the unit
Faenik: why not?
SlimeX Grossman: folw me
SlimeX Grossman: secret place
SlimeX Grossman: ill get the chairs
Dakini Rhode: nice!
ryusho Ort: why did you bring this ghulabala here slimex!!???
Pema Pera: funny that you thought I was a machine, Ryusho!
Dakini Rhode: did you make this SlimeX?
Pema Pera: alas, no machine involved yet
SlimeX Grossman: no..
ryusho Ort: DAKINI!!!?>??
Dakini Rhode: yes?
ryusho Ort: NICE!!!??
However, everybody’s attention was taken up by SlimeX rezzing some huge structure next to the tea house, partly penetrating the tea house and looming over it.
ryusho Ort: pema: i did not say you are a machine! why you said that?
Pema Pera: oh, I thought you said it was working
Pema Pera: the translation
Pema Pera: but that ws not a translation
Pema Pera: that was me writing Japanese
Pema Pera: haha
Dakini Rhode: did you know this is on my teahouse, slimeX?
SlimeX Grossman: oh sorry!
Dakini Rhode: :-)
ryusho Ort: sorry but dakini just gave me a thing called babbler is a translator
Pema Pera: yes, I got it too, but we don’t yet know how to use it
ryusho Ort: she said it would not work so i tought you were trying it out!
Dakini Rhode: my babbler is babbling in empty words
Pema Pera: are you Japanese?
Pema Pera: yes, I understand!
SlimeX Grossman: this place is kinda messy but itll last
Pema Pera: np
ryusho Ort: nihonjin ja arimasen ga
Dakini Rhode: last?
Pema Pera: it is fun to write different languages
ryusho Ort: nihongo shabemasu
Pema Pera: 中国人？
SlimeX Grossman: ni hao
SlimeX Grossman: wo si slimex
Pema Pera: wow, quite a build here!!
ryusho Ort: 我們都是華人
SlimeX Grossman: ta si ryu’
ryusho Ort: 不過是新加坡的華人
ryusho Ort: 不是中國的！
Ryusho had answered me that he was not Japanese, and he then started speaking Chinese instead. Since the characters were similar, because Japanese is derived from Chinese, I could more or less understand what he said and I tried to translate the characters one by one to get a sense. SlimeX spoke in Chinese as well.
Pema Pera: hmm, not this chinese like?
SlimeX Grossman: ni shuo de dui!
Dakini Rhode: i see you have put part of a treehouse in my zen retreat, SlimeX
Dakini Rhode: But i’m not sure why
SlimeX Grossman: sory!
ryusho Ort: dont worry dakini
ryusho Ort: it is temporary
Dakini Rhode: haha
ryusho Ort: he has to remove it
SlimeX Grossman: yep
Dakini Rhode: yes were you showing us this?
ryusho Ort: or i will remove HIM!
SlimeX Grossman: should i remove the house?
Dakini Rhode: lol ryusho
Fael Illyar: it’ll vanish in a few minutes due to autoreturn :)
SlimeX Grossman: i know
Dakini Rhode: I’m just wondering what you mean to show us
SlimeX Grossman: i hope it happens
SlimeX Grossman: umm..
ryusho Ort: slimex take this ugly thing away!!
SlimeX Grossman: im thinking of it as my house
ryusho Ort: before i take you!
Dakini Rhode: ah i see
SlimeX Grossman: OK!
SlimeX Grossman: everybody out
SlimeX Grossman: wait
ryusho Ort: NOW!
SlimeX Grossman: k
SlimeX Grossman: done
The large structure disappeared as quickly as it had appeared in the first place.
ryusho Ort: finally some peace!
ryusho Ort: dakini
SlimeX Grossman: …
ryusho Ort: you have time to try out the outfit already?
Dakini Rhode: we do need to find a larger place to sit
Pema Pera: Well, I have to take off, have to be back here in one hour
Dakini Rhode: no, i was sleeping ryusho
SlimeX Grossman: my place?
Pema Pera: Nice meeting your both, ryusho and SlimeX!
SlimeX Grossman: ok
SlimeX Grossman: bye!
ryusho Ort: hope to see you again pema
Pema Pera: お休みなさい
ryusho Ort: nice meeting you!
Pema Pera: how do you say good night in Chinese?
Dakini Rhode: good night, Pema :-)
ryusho Ort: is an honor
ryusho Ort: 晚安
Pema Pera: nice!
SlimeX Grossman: oh
Pema Pera: gentle evening
SlimeX Grossman: zao an
Pema Pera: evening peaceful
ryusho Ort: 再見！
SlimeX Grossman: is morning
Pema Pera: yes
Pema Pera: again seeing
Fael Illyar: See you Pema :)
Pema Pera: I look forward to visit China
Pema Pera: and read
Pema Pera: though I can’t speak
Dakini Rhode: Evening in Japan :-)
Pema Pera: come visit us in the tea house some day for Play as Being if you like: http://playasbeing.wordpress.com/
I left SL and returned an hour later. I found Fael and Pia at the tea house, for the 7 am session. As I mentioned above, Fael was the guardian for that session, and from here on the comments are hers.
I was at the teahouse waiting for others to arrive and Pia happened to be the first one.
Fael Illyar: Hello Pia
Pia Iger: Hi, Fael, are you Guardian today?
Fael Illyar: Yes, I am
Pia Iger: good. Do you want to sit outside? I feel like it.
Fael Illyar: I don’t mind either way :)
Pia Iger: I am adjust the view.
Pema arrived a few minutes later.
Pema Pera: Greetings!
Fael Illyar: Hi Pema
Pema Pera: Good to see you again, Pia!!
Pia Iger: Hi, pema.
Pema Pera: And Fael, you have had a six hour session now?
Pema Pera: :)
Fael Illyar: I saw no reason to move :P
Pema Pera: haha, yes
Pema Pera: glad you’re taking root here!
Pia Iger: wow..
Pema Pera: Pia, did Fael show you what she has created, together with Moon?
I had helped moon with particles and scripts with a scripted gesture (ccs) he wanted to give to someone. We completed it after the 1am PaB meeting.
Pia Iger: not yet.
Faenik: なるほど^^
Fael Illyar: there :)
Pema Pera: wonderful, Fael, so sweet !
Pema Pera: and what wonderful visuals too!
Pema Pera: together with the sound
Faenik loves wells!
Pia Iger: Enchanting.
Pema Pera: perfect expression, yes
Fael Illyar: I mostly helped with the visuals. the animation and sound is from Moon
Pema Pera: that must be where the term enchanting comes from, from “chant”
Pema Pera: a chant that works magic
Fael Illyar: :)
Pia Iger: what is the lyrics about?
Fael Illyar: You’ll have to ask moon for those. I do have them in my logs but might take a while to find them.
Pema Pera: [2008/06/07 5:35] Moon Fargis: The faraway golden star that twinkles in the night sky Is the same color as the little bird that I looked up at in my dream last night On sleepless nights I sing songs alone Together with the wind passing by I pick up my thoughts and fly The faraway silver moon that shines in the night sky Is the same color as the wild roses that were blooming in my dream last night
Fael Illyar: Oh, Pema was fast :)
Pema Pera: hehe
Pia Iger: Ah, beautiful.
Pia Iger: I notice Moon and Fael are very creative. They made so many things.
Pema Pera: yes, I mentioned that if we leave them here for a week, we won’t recognize the place anymore . . . .
Pia Iger: yes!
I grew a bit uncomfortable with the topic so I decided to see if I could divert it.
Fael Illyar: I think PaB and this more traditional Zen meditation I’m now doing every morning since Wednesday has reduced my fear of wasps somewhat.
Pia Iger: fear of wasps?
Fael Illyar: Well, actually more generally insects that make noise and are colored black and yellow :)
Pema Pera: :) we have one black and yellow big crawling insect here, but it doesn’t make noise . . . .
Pia Iger: How do you feel now when you think about wasps,etc?
Fael Illyar: that one?
I was trying to point out an insect on the teahouse terrace and was highlighting it with my selection beam.
Pema Pera: which one?
Fael Illyar: Still scary but it’s starting to be in manageable range.
Pema Pera: ah!
Pema Pera: no, this one, lets see whether I can find it
Pema rezzed a purple ladybird looking bug the size of a tiny cat. It started moving about. More cute than scary, that one
Pema Pera: ah, wrong color
Pia Iger: test Fael right away!
Pema Pera: fortunately it is walking away!
Fael Illyar: oh, forgot to add flying in the description :)
Pema Pera: ah!
Pema Pera: so safe on two counts ;)
Pema Pera: not making sound, not stinging, not flying
Pema Pera: three counts
Pema Pera: does stinging count?
Faenik: could be
Fael Illyar: Well, essentially it’s fear of stinging. If I manage to convince myself that they can’t sting me, I don’t mind them all that much haha
Pema Pera: I certainly understand that, Fael
Pema Pera: I had a similar fear of musquitoes for a long time
Pema Pera: as a child found it very hard to fall asleep with a musquito in my room
Pema Pera: just the thought itself was somehow very unpleasant
Pema Pera: more than the ctual consequences
I felt the need to point out I wasn’t scared of mosquitoes. You either stop fearing them or you die of fear when you’re swimming in them for 2 months every summer.
Fael Illyar: I was too used to mosquitoes to start fearing them when the event happened that made me fear getting stung
Pema Pera: a special event?
Pia Iger: The bug should go the other way!
Pema Pera: Pia, have you heard the gong before?
Pia Iger: yes. I think Fael and Moon made them last weekend.
Fael Illyar: Although, if there is a mosquitoe in my room, I have to hunt it down before going to sleep. Otherwise it’ll find it’s way making noise right in my ear when I’m asleep
Pema Pera: yes, Pia
Pia Iger: They do things right away, efficient!
Fael Illyar: That wakes me up and I hate being woken up in middle of the night
Pema Pera: do you want to tell us what the special event was, what triggered your anxiety?
Pia Iger: I was talking about the purple bug you just put out. it was coming my way. i felt nervous.
Fael Illyar: I was out doing something with my mother and suddenly one stung her in the arm. That’s what I think is the trigger.
Pia Iger: Most anxiety is from out expectation of bad things.
Pema Pera: yes indeed
Fael Illyar: I was less than 5 years old at the time. I’m not sure exactly how old
Pia Iger: I think my fear of darkness was started at little age, too
Pema Pera: It is interesting what can trigger our reactions, which then can stay with us for a long time
Fael Illyar: When you’re less than 5 years old, you tend to overreact easily and this is what happens
Bogadaeius chose this moment to arrive.
Pia Iger: that is why I think early child care is very important.
Pema Pera: Hi Bogdaeius!
Pema Pera: welcome
Bogdaeius Bookmite: hello
Pema Pera: have you been here before?
Fael Illyar: I think it was traumatic because it was so much out of the ordinary.
Bogdaeius Bookmite: yes
Bogdaeius Bookmite: earlier
Pema Pera: we are just chatting, something we do here four times a day
Pema Pera: every six hours
Bogdaeius Bookmite: k
Pema Pera: 1 and 7, am and pm SL time
Pema Pera: by the way,
Pema Pera: As for the last six plus hours, Pia, what happened is that at 1 am SLT I had to go to an early dinner, so I asked Moon and Fael to take over my session. And when I came back four hours later, they had just completed their lovely enchanting act :-)
Faenik: could be
Pema Pera: so some people sometimes stay in between the six hours :)
Pema Pera: but I think Fael so far has been the first !!
Fael Illyar: Another contributing factor might be that it wasn’t me who got stung, so I was left imagining what it was like.
Pia Iger: She is also the first who get on PaB practice right away and do it very often.
Pema Pera: yes, very focused!
Spock also showed up.
Pema Pera: But so are you, Pia!
Fael Illyar: Hello Spock
Pema Pera: Hi Spock!
Pema Pera: Nice effects, Bog!
Spock Yuitza: hello all
Pia Iger: thanks. I feel very encouraged since Fael and others are doing it seriously too.
Pia Iger: Hi, Bog and Spock1
Bogdaeius Bookmite: thank you,. Hey Spock.
Pema Pera: Bog, http://playasbeing.wordpress.com/ is our web site
Pema Pera: there is brief information about our explorations
Pema Pera: basically we are trying to look into reality
Pema Pera: in a simple and playful way
Bogdaeius Bookmite: hmm, I tend to look at life in a serios, analitycal way
Pema Pera: every fifteen minutes, we spend 9 seconds on a form of mini meditation
Fael Illyar: Should I show the scripted gesture again now that we got more people?
Here we go again …
Pema Pera: ssure!
Fael Illyar: My own way is quite serious and analytical too.
Pema Pera: please do!
Pema Pera: oh wait
Pema Pera: let me get Hotaru too to see it
Pema Pera: just a sec
Pia Iger: I want to see it again, since I adust to a better view now.
Pema Pera: let me see whether Hotaru, who just came online, can come over
Pema Pera: it fits her sense!
Pema Pera: I’m sure
Fael Illyar: Yes, I think it does :)
Moon arrives just in time.
Fael Illyar: Hello Moon :)
Pema Pera: hi Moon!
Moon Fargis: hello again :)
Pema Pera: welcome back
Pema Pera: Fael will soon perform
Pema Pera: but we are waiting for Hotaru
Pema Pera: just a sec
Moon Fargis: perform ?
Fael Illyar: ccs
Moon Fargis: hehe
Pema Pera: well, maybe you should just go ahead
Fael Illyar: ok
The performance. Everyone is silent.
Moon Fargis: :)
Fael Illyar: /bow
Pema Pera: wonderful!!!
Fael Illyar: oh, I didn’t have that gesture active
Moon Fargis: btw fael you are sadly still ghosted here
Fael Illyar: ghosted? invisible except for my attachments?
Faenik: why not?
Pema Pera: btw Bog, do you mind if we mention your SL name in our blog, with some snippets of our conversations?
Moon Fargis: no the newer relasecandidates shows avatard wich arent loaded now as ghosts
Bogdaeius Bookmite: no
Moon Fargis: ant not as woman anymore
Pema Pera: thank you!
Fael Illyar: oh, that’s an interesting change
Pema Pera: well, I have to go to an astronomy meeting
Pema Pera: starting in a minute
Fael Illyar: oh, it’s earlier today
Pema Pera: yes
Rajah arrives as Pema is leaving.
Fael Illyar: Hello Rajah
Pema Pera: on Saturdays I have volunteered to be a “guardian”
Pema Pera: but we call them “barrista”
Pema Pera: hi Rajah
Rajah Yalin: hi there - how come we’re outside?
Pema Pera: Barrista for serving coffee
Pia Iger: I had tea, sake, yet to taste coffee!
Pema Pera: Fael, can you send the chat log later?
Fael Illyar: Outside for a change :)
Pema Pera: nice seeing you all here!
Fael Illyar: Yes, of course
Faenik is a hairy black ball with eyes and ears.
Pia Iger: goodbye, Pema.
Pema Pera: sorry to have to leave so early
Fael Illyar: See you Pema :)
Pema Pera: next time I’ll stay longer!
Rajah Yalin: take care Pema - Namaste
Pema Pera: /gassho
Moon Fargis: see you later pema
Pia Iger: I took a snapshot of Fael for memory.
Moon Fargis: :)
Fael Illyar: during the show?
Pia Iger: yes.
Fael Illyar: :)
Rajah Yalin is wondering what he missed.
Fael Illyar: I guess I’ll do it once more :)
Moon Fargis: fael: can you edit your appeance?
Pia Iger: Please!
Moon Fargis: the i will see you
Moon Fargis: ahh ok thx
Fael Illyar: ok, everyone looking at me?
Moon Fargis: yes
Once more and then a duet is requested.
Bogdaeius Bookmite: great!
Moon Fargis: ^_^
Spock Yuitza: wonderful
Moon Fargis: how long did we take fo this fael did you count?
Pia Iger: How delightful experience for my saturday morning!
Moon Fargis: 4 hours?
Fael Illyar: yes, 4 hours I think. I don’t know how long you had spent on the gesture before that though
Pia Iger: Moon, can you do it too?
Moon Fargis: ok 4hours 30 minutes :)
Moon Fargis: yes but i made the gesture for females
Pia Iger: can Moon and Fael do a duet?
Moon Fargis: so it wont fit hehe
Faenik: ah :)
Moon Fargis: hmm
Fael Illyar: Duet is possible but there is no support for synchronized operation right now
Moon Fargis: sure the time
Pia Iger: Please try.
Moon Fargis: point 40
Fael Illyar: point 40?
Moon Fargis: 7:40
Duet finished, several seconds apart for each one.
Faenik: なるほど^^
Moon Fargis: wel i guess we forgot the lag thing :)
Pia Iger: Wow, anyone missing this should feel sorry.
Fael Illyar: Yes, pretty much
Moon Fargis: cant we trigger the gesture with a word?
Moon Fargis: someone speaks?
Fael Illyar: That’s why some code to synchronize things would be necessary
Pia Iger: what lag? I have no techincal clue.
Bogdaeius Bookmite: Pray
Bogdaeius Bookmite: afk
After this Bogdaeius soon vanished.
Moon Fargis: lag is the time between you pressed anter and it actually happens in sl
Moon Fargis: enter
Moon Fargis: the time a command takes to go from one side to another
Fael Illyar: Yes, scripts are necessary if you want to synchronize things.
Fael Illyar: Probably necessary to have the whole thing happen from the scripts
Fael Illyar: if we need synchronization
Moon Fargis: yes i guess so
Pia Iger: Anyway, I enjoy it as is. You two made a bell for PaB, now create a PaB repertoire!
Moon Fargis: or maybe. pia counts backwards and whe try again at 0
Moon Fargis: what do you think fael ?
Fael Illyar: if we try it enough many times, one of them is bound to match quite closely ;)
Moon Fargis: lets try atleast one time :)
Moon Fargis: pia
Pia Iger: yes?
Moon Fargis: can you count from 10 to 0 ?
Pia Iger: then?
Moon Fargis: ok go :)
Pia Iger: 3, 2, 1. 0
Pia combines all the numbers into one line, which wasn’t quite what Moon had in mind.
Pia Iger: go!
Moon Fargis: nahh
Moon Fargis: hehe
Fael Illyar: :)
Moon Fargis: pia.. i think you misunderstood
Pia Iger: ??

This time we got started closer to each other.
Moon Fargis: ha good that was closer:)
Moon Fargis: we should go on tour with that
Moon Fargis: :)
Faenik: ah :)
Fael Illyar: close this time but maybe more disturbing time difference this time :)
Pia Iger: Agree!
Pia Iger: agree to the tour idea.
Moon Fargis: haha
Fael Illyar: although, if one of us modifies the scripted part to listen to anyone, only one needs to use the gesture
Pia Iger: yes. it is a bit hard to be total in sync.
Fael Illyar: someone figured out my wings react to clicking :)
Moon Fargis: you are the scripter here fael :)
Fael Illyar: Yes, I’ll just need to find the prims first
Rajah Yalin: I think that was me
Faenik: なるほど^^
Pia Iger: sorry, I can’t help anything on scripts :- (
Moon Fargis: fael.. i think we should continue this later i have to make food for my rl visitors now
Pia Iger: Thank you two for the effects. I enjoy very much. I am leaving, too. see you next time
Moon Fargis: i will be away now
Moon Fargis: ok see you soon pia
Rajah Yalin: take care
Rajah Yalin: Namaste
Fael Illyar: Ah, ok :) Later then :)
