2010.03.29 13:00 - Alts of Being

The Guardian for this wack-yet-oddly-profound meeting was Eliza Madrigal, filling in for Mickorod Renard.

The comments are by Eliza Madrigal, who was joined by Eden, Bleu, Storm, Zen, Calvino, Qt, Pema, Agatha, Lucinda, Velora, Yakuzza (Happy REZZ DAY Yakzza), Mick (for a bit), Liza, Susi... AND for a special treat, various manifestations...

Zen shares a new adventure ...

Zen Arado: I set up an Alt
Zen Arado: is that a good thing to do?
Agatha Macbeth: Depends
Pema Pera: :)
Agatha Macbeth: On what you want to do with him/her
Zen Arado: lots of advantages
Zen Arado: can dump a lot of my inventory on it
Agatha Macbeth: Yeah, that helps
Bleu Oleander: never thought of that!
Zen Arado: could experience being a woman
Agatha Macbeth: Except there's a lotta stuff you can't transfer it seems
Qt Core: ohhh, never thought abiut that, first good reason i hear
Qt Core: (that is good for my sl ecperience)
Agatha Macbeth: ;-)
Pema Pera: another good reason is that you can be a member of an extra 25 groups for each extra alt
Zen Arado: yes true
Pema Pera: and have the IMs of those groups come to your email inbo
Bleu Oleander: wow, never thought of that either
Agatha Macbeth: Why is the limit 25 anyway?
Bleu Oleander: all kind of tips today

Missed Eden's great question at first (haha), struck anew by the name of Pema's alt...

Eden Haiku: Do you get an extra 24 hours a day too?

Agatha Macbeth: Why not 50?
Pema Pera: most of my Buddhist groups are assigned to my alt "No Self"
Zen Arado: unfortunately not
Agatha Macbeth grins @ Pema
Bleu Oleander: nice name
Pema Pera: (I was very fortunate!)
Zen Arado: didn't realize you could rez both at the same time until the other night
Pema Pera: (or my no-self alt was)
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Zen Arado: I can talk to myself now
Susi Alcott: smiles
Eliza Madrigal: and go dancing
Agatha Macbeth: Don't you anyway?
Qt Core: is there a way to rez both ? something different from two sl instance running i mean ?
Zen Arado: he he
Bleu Oleander: don't need us now
Eden Haiku: But you need to use two computers don't you Zen?
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Zen Arado: yes it's easy
Lucinda Lavender: :)
Zen Arado: no
Zen Arado: better with 2 screens though
Bleu Oleander: who is your alt Zen?
Eden Haiku: Ah no? Then you need two Second Life software on your computer?
Zen Arado: he e secret

             Storm Nordwind: Perhaps everyone here except you and me is also really me ;)

Zen Arado: yes you start 2 viewers
Agatha Macbeth: (Just listen for the accent)
Eliza Madrigal: I use my alt as a secret shopper.... finds things and then IMs me...
Eliza Madrigal: hahaha Storm
Qt Core: so more than two screen you need two more ram chips ;-)
Zen Arado: ah ha other alys around
Eden Haiku: Who is the second 'me' Storm?
Bleu Oleander will get alt after session
Zen Arado: alts even
Eden Haiku: I have my twin sister alt. She has not come for a while. Let me invite her (she lives in my laptop),
Zen Arado: interesting to try life as a woman
Zen Arado: or a man
Qt Core: mmm, i may make the trek officer and the borg cube argue...
Eliza Madrigal: yes I thought so
--BELL--
Agatha Macbeth: You'll make lotsa new friends Zen :)

--BELL--
Agatha Macbeth: Wol will take you shopping Zen
Zen Arado: what do you say?
Zen Arado: I don't like to be rude
Pema Pera: You, rude, Zen?
No Self: Never!
Zen Arado: ty Eden
Zen Arado: maybe I will become a real bitch !
Storm Nordwind: Telling them you only like women will still cause its own problems Zen
Zen Arado: true
Eden Haiku: :))
Agatha Macbeth: But you'll never be bored...
Zen Arado: I think I could dress myself well
Zen Arado: couldn't get the bra to come off though
Agatha Macbeth: Hers or yours?
Zen Arado: ?
Zen Arado: getting confused now
Agatha Macbeth: You sure are!
No Self: :)
Agatha Macbeth: (And lovin' it)
Zen Arado: gives you insights though
Eden Haiku: I suspect Donations Windstorm is some alt of our stormy friend here...
Donations Windstorm: Perhaps ;)
Eden Haiku: I recognize the pink hammer...
No Self: I guess he is just a beggar
Bleu Oleander: bye everyone and alts :)
No Self: bye Bleu!

Eden Haiku: Goodbye Bleu!
Bleu Oleander: nice meeting all alts
No Self: an original Buddhist Monk, that is
Eliza Madrigal: Bye Bleu :)
Gybele Silvera: _/!\_ Bleu

Male/Female play and Who is threatened ... 

Zen Arado: wondes how much of our masculine/feminine traits are learned
Eden Haiku: Leaving Yakku?
Agatha Macbeth: You seem very pink Eden
Stargate Tone: _/!\_
Zen Arado: how we are supposed to behave
Eden Haiku: I'm wearing a pink aura Susi gave me...
Zen Arado: bye Bleu
Agatha Macbeth: Ah
Zen Arado: threatens sense of self maybe
Agatha Macbeth: What does?
Zen Arado: a gender identity
Agatha Macbeth: Oh
Storm Nordwind: Or liberates it perhaps
Zen Arado: sorry if this is offending anyone
No Self: No doesn't feel threatened at all
Gybele Silvera: _/!\_
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Eden Haiku: :)
Mickorod Renard: Zen,,you offend in such a lovely way,,its a pleasure
Eliza Madrigal: smiles
Mickorod Renard: :)
Zen Arado: smiles too
Zen Arado: must be my feminine side :)
Eliza Madrigal: people experiment with alts sometimes as a way of loosening identities...
Eliza Madrigal: so in that way can be quite a tool
Agatha Macbeth: Sure to be, Zen ;p
Zen Arado: yes ..that's what I was thinking Eliza
Qt Core: are some alts... "droppings"
No Self: what identity?
No Self looking around
Storm Nordwind: People move transgender too, and trans-species
Liza Deischer: yes eliza ad it works too, I can tell :-)

Zen Arado: :)
Eliza Madrigal: nods... and I guess one could see what they think of as 'female' is really just something on its own... or not at all, etc
Eliza Madrigal: hahahah, Oh No...
Liza Deischer: I only have one problem with switching genders in sl
Eliza Madrigal: nods to Storm re species....
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Mickorod Renard: I have only ever been accused of transgressing
Liza Deischer: my male alt seem to run into lesbians far more easier then I do :-)
Agatha Macbeth: Aww
No Self: :-)
Zen Arado: gosh everyone had an alt only me
Agatha Macbeth: Perhaps he just goes to the best places Liza ;-)
Storm Nordwind: Maybe have the two hang around together :)
Qt Core: me too, i still don't
Zen Arado: I'm so innocent
Liza Deischer: maybe, but still wondering what I'm doing wrong
Mickorod Renard: sounds balls Storm
Agatha Macbeth: You innocent? Hah
Liza Deischer: as Liza I mean :-)
Storm Nordwind remembers when Linden Lab used to charge US$10 to birth an alt
Liza Deischer: birth an alt, nice way of putting it
Qt Core: going for a stupid question: to make an alt (if ever) is just making another just like the first one, right ?
Zen Arado: found it a bit frightening
Stargate Tone: ***<3<3<3***
Liza Deischer: yes QT
Zen Arado: got booted off my own property
Liza Deischer: hahah
--BELL--
Zen Arado: there is a far better selection pf alts now
Qt Core: do you (all) have a group for your alts to manage land right (to avoid Zen faux pas) ?
Storm Nordwind: It helps, Qt
Zen Arado: I gave my alt access but it still gets shoved to outer edge
Liza Deischer: maybe you do't like him/her
Liza Deischer: without being aware
Qt Core: and it even give you a group to use woonderful and ad hoc tags... another good reason to have an alt

Eden notices Lucinda 'away' for a long time...

Eden Haiku: Lucinda wake up!
Zen Arado: growing very fond of him /her Liza
Eliza Madrigal smiles at Eden
Eden Haiku: I don't want her to be ejected...:)
Storm Nordwind: Or dejected
Wol Euler: oh, I came just in time.

Wol Euler: hello everyone, sorry I'm late.
Liza Deischer: hi Wol
Eden Haiku: Hello Wol!
Eliza Madrigal: quite a session today...
Mickorod Renard: I had a female Alt once just for fun,,it seemed far less vain dressing that one up than my real sl avi
Agatha Macbeth: Room for one more on top Wol
Mickorod Renard: Hi Wol
Wol Euler: :)
Pema Pera: Hi Wol!
Zen Arado: men's clothes are more boring
No Self: Hi Wol
Agatha Macbeth: Oh yes
Zen Arado: and less selection
Wol Euler: true in both worlds, zen.
Zen Arado: yes
Zen Arado: I get a clothing catalogue from Land's end and it is about 90% women's clothes
Agatha Macbeth: That's Cornwall for ya
Storm Nordwind: Finisterre
Agatha Macbeth: That too
Zen Arado: that's men for ya
Zen Arado: don't buy enough clothes
Agatha Macbeth nods
Agatha Macbeth: You can still buy 10 pc of the catalogue
Wol Euler: gotta keep the economy moving.
Zen Arado: thanks
Zen Arado: :)
Qt Core: i can't do what i like with clothes here.... buy several identical ones so i don't have to choose ;-)
Mickorod Renard: when visiting friends, I WOULD DISCRETELY FIND THEIR CATALOGUES AND LEAVE THE BOOK OPEN ON WOMENS UNDERWAEAR,,IT WAS GREAT TO SEE THIER WIVES ACCUSE THEM OF BEING PERVERTS
Agatha Macbeth still loves the pink pants
Zen Arado: :)
Eliza Madrigal: Oh, Mick.... sigh
Wol Euler: heheheh
Agatha Macbeth rubs her ear
Mickorod Renard: :)
Zen Arado: going back a bit Mick?

Eliza Madrigal: yes, it was the caps that was the problem mick
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Mickorod Renard: ok,,sussed it tyhanks
Agatha Macbeth: To cap it all...
Storm Nordwind groans
Mickorod Renard: need smaller fingers too
Agatha Macbeth: Meep Meep ;P :p:P :p :P
Agatha Macbeth: Or bigger keys
Mickorod Renard: nose is blocked
Agatha Macbeth: Whose?
Mickorod Renard: joking

Lucinda Lavender: you have not bored me but being new I don't always understand.
Zen Arado: I don't either
Wol Euler smiles.
Agatha Macbeth: Neither do I most times
Wol Euler: that makes you one of us.
Mickorod Renard: nor me
Agatha Macbeth: 'That is a beginning Grasshopper'
Eliza Madrigal: This has been a bit different of a session... too...

Adding to the madness...

Agatha Macbeth: Isn't there a 'No Smoking' sign?
Zen Arado: makes 'who am I 'koan tricky

Udge Watanabe puffs out a long stream of smoke and says "no"
Eliza Madrigal: Hm, no... just "On Air"

Wol Euler: hehehehehe
Eliza Madrigal: hehehehe
Agatha Macbeth: Send for Jill Valentine
Wol Euler: well, we are all Being's alts really.

Agatha Macbeth: R U 1 2
Eliza Madrigal: Oohhh... ding, log title goes to Wol
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Wol Euler: :)))

Eden Haiku: Saw Stonehenge from an airplane once. At sunrise. Felt like a precious gift...
Eliza Madrigal: Bye :)
Eden Haiku: Bye Eliza.
Jan Qualia: I better go too
Jan Qualia: find you all a bit weird
Wol Euler: :-PPPPPPPPPP
Eden Haiku: hum hum...
Agatha Macbeth: Or weird even
Jan Qualia: except Storm and Udge :)
Udge Watanabe grins
Eden Haiku: Why them not weird?
Udge Watanabe: because we are smokers, I bet.
Jan Qualia: they are nice men :)
Jan Qualia: mature
Agatha Macbeth: Aww
Storm Nordwind: Thank you kindly :)
Eden Haiku: You are a misogynistic woman then Jan! Ah!
Agatha Macbeth: Bye Jan
Eden Haiku: Ans what about Zen, you like him the best I suppose...
Liza Deischer: bye Jan
Eden Haiku: No way to argue with a gone alt avatar...
Zen Arado: I can pass on message
Agatha Macbeth: A GAA?
Eden Haiku: Would you kindly...:)
--BELL--
Liza Deischer: cu (whoever you are)
Wol Euler: bye liza, sorry I missed you this afternoon :(
Eden Haiku: Cu Liza!
Zen Arado: paying with identities could be a good thing I think
Qt Core: bye Liza ;-)
Agatha Macbeth: BFN Liza, look after yourself
Zen Arado: bye Liza
Eden Haiku: We will have to leave also for some sisterly chat Rrose and I. Good evening everyone!
Wol Euler: bye eden, bye rrose, take care.
Rrose Millar: waves
Agatha Macbeth: Salut Edie
Agatha Macbeth: And Roie
Udge Watanabe: bye all, nice to meet you
Qt Core: bye Eden, Rrose, don't argue too much
Agatha Macbeth: Rosie
Zen Arado: bye Rosie
Agatha Macbeth: She's beside herself tonight
Zen Arado: Bye Eden
Wol Euler: oh! the penny drops!
Wol Euler: rose = pink = Eden's AoB object.
Wol Euler: duh.
Eden Haiku: We won't Qt. Rosie will be pleased she go a nickname from Agathitha!
Wol Euler: that took me far too long.
Agatha Macbeth grins
Eden Haiku: Yes, Wol, I created my alt twin sister cause I was estranged from my RL sister...:)
Agatha Macbeth: Awww
Wol Euler: I remember you saying htat now.
Wol Euler: and how terribly sad I thought it was.
Zen Arado: have to go
Zen Arado: bye all
Udge Watanabe: bye zen, take care.
Qt Core: bye Zen
Wol Euler: bye zen
Agatha Macbeth: Bye Jan....er Zen
Wol Euler: have a guinness on us
Donations Windstorm: I must slip away now fellas. I have some serious treasure counting to do
Agatha Macbeth: Cya DW
Wol Euler: bye dona, nice meeting you
Qt Core: bye donations
Wol Euler: she needs some moneybags to carry around :)
Wol Euler: or a briefcase handcuffed to her wrist
Storm Nordwind: True.
Agatha Macbeth: She can borrow some of yours :)
Wol Euler: I know where you can get the latter :)
Storm Nordwind: What cuffs Agatha?
Qt Core: it seem that in last days PaB is trying to make me reevaluate a couple points about my sl presence, money (i don't use it) and alt (i don't plan on having one)
Agatha Macbeth: Eh?
Agatha Macbeth: But you do still have your pink pants QT
Wol Euler: do tell, qt.
Agatha Macbeth: And yer Borg cube
Udge Watanabe: I'm curious.
Agatha Macbeth: Hello Curious
Udge Watanabe: :-P
Qt Core: i come here in sl with the idea of not spending an euro on it
Qt Core: but i sometime tip with the small money i got here and there mostly trivia ;-)
Wol Euler: gambling!
Agatha Macbeth: I walk into clothes shops not intending to buy anything, but still do
Agatha Macbeth sighs
Qt Core: but then comparing my tips to standard ones...
Udge Watanabe: I was in SL for over six months before I spent any money on my appearance
Qt Core: i'm not ashamed og giving the lowest one, but then i'm not really supporting the people i tip
Wol Euler nods.
Qt Core: for clothes and such i haven't yet seen something i HAVE to own
Wol Euler: oh how sad :)
Agatha Macbeth: Indeed
Wol Euler: We must take him shopping, Aggers,
Qt Core: and i don't know what to do with land as i don't want (yett) to build
Agatha Macbeth: Yes!
Agatha Macbeth: At Avid?
Wol Euler: well, land is really optional. But your appearnce is your identity, here even more than in RL
Agatha Macbeth tries to picture a Goth QT
Qt Core: i just need mt trek commbadge ;-)
Agatha Macbeth: Fire all phasers!
Qt Core: or maybe a hat with maggig wrote on it ;-)
Agatha Macbeth: Maggig?
Qt Core: sorry mixed italian and english, wizzard wrote on it ;-)
Agatha Macbeth: Roy Wood?
Wol Euler smiles at the double "Z"
Storm Nordwind: yay!
Agatha Macbeth: See my Baby jive
--BELL--
Qt Core: for the alt in this session a couple good reasod come up: inventory sorting and group survival for nice tags
Agatha Macbeth: Wish someone would sort my inventory :(
Agatha Macbeth: It's a right bloody mess
Qt Core: that is beside the usual as experimenting wityhnidentities, work alt and everyday aone
Wol Euler nods.
Qt Core: and mpd, obviously
Agatha Macbeth: Obviously
Wol Euler snorts
Agatha Macbeth: :)
Qt Core: it is quite hard sometimes making the morporkian and the trekker convive... with burst of Hogwarts in the way too
Wol Euler: well, if you had an alt, you could separate them out.
Agatha Macbeth: Just get the Klingons on 'em QT
Wol Euler: let them express themselves fully, without "you" holding htem down
Udge Watanabe nods.
Qt Core: but they are not my appearance, they are part of my personality, eith the programmer and the comic guy on top of them
Wol Euler: sure; I was replying to your statement that they "get in the way" :)
Wol Euler: perhaps that's the wrong way around...
Calvino Rabeni: I am in little hurry about this - I am planning to wait until my Alts are able to have a decent conversation with me
Qt Core: i should go around with several alts everytime to let the "righ" one say the next line
Udge Watanabe: that depends entirely on your typing speed
Wol Euler: so true.
Udge Watanabe grins.
Calvino Rabeni: When the Alts pass the Turing Test, all on thier own, then we'll be in business
Udge Watanabe: c'mon, admit it: don't you talk to yourself in RL anyway? :)
Qt Core: my typing skil are slowly degrading since i had to stop doing yoga (they got at their high diring my youga era)
Agatha Macbeth: I do
Wol Euler nods.
Wol Euler: in three languages!
Agatha Macbeth: I shout at myself too
Agatha Macbeth: I think that's something evryone who spends much time alone does
Storm Nordwind: Arguing with yourself is fine ... until you lose the argument and go off in a sulk
Agatha Macbeth: Oh I do!
Wol Euler laughs.
Udge Watanabe: heheheh
Qt Core: i usually only insult myself rarely just speak
Calvino Rabeni: Nothing like a good sulk though - you should try it some time
Agatha Macbeth: Don't tempt me
Qt Core: but i speak to pcs ;-).... or :-(
Qt Core: ?
Udge Watanabe: Wol has started telling hte rest of me to take breaks, to drop stuff, to remember that it's all an illusion. That kind of thing.
Udge Watanabe: It's definitely her voice, not "mine" :)
Agatha Macbeth: But do you take notice?
Udge Watanabe: we try to.
Udge Watanabe: she's usually right.
Wol Euler smiles modestly.
Agatha Macbeth: I know :)
Calvino Rabeni: My alts tell me to take things more seriously. What the !@#$%!@# would they know about *that* anyway?
Wol Euler: heheheheh
Calvino Rabeni: I say - easy for you to say
Agatha Macbeth: You tell 'em Cal
Calvino Rabeni: I heard somethings is brewing over at Art of Being, so I'm heading that way
Calvino Rabeni: by all
Storm Nordwind is going to the Piazza d'Arte to see what's going on - please excuse
Agatha Macbeth: Beer?
Wol Euler: sounds like fun, shall we all go see?
Agatha Macbeth: Y not?
Storm Nordwind waves
Qt Core: ok
--BELL--
Udge Watanabe: I'm off home actually, it was nice to meet you all.
Agatha Macbeth: Byee
Qt Core: sleep well Udge
Agatha Macbeth: C ya Fudge ;-)
