2011.05.18 07:00 - Walking Out of Context

The Guardian for this meeting was Eliza Madrigal, passing Sunshine the baton for music session following. Comments are by Eliza Madrigal, joined by Xirana, Yakuzza, Riddle, Aphrodite, Zen, SophiaSharon, Alfred, and Nameless Cat. Eventually, we end up like this:

But before that, we we take many detours on horseback, in cars and buses, on yoshis and pretty ponies, and good ol' fashioned walking. We also have a nice discussion in which we consider commitments, choicing, "stopping even more", dog walking and devotion, and words that only make sense in SL.

For those wondering whether to read the session I can only quote Shakepeare: "Though this be madness, yet there is method in it."

[or that's my story anyway]

Eliza Madrigal: ::::::neigh:::::::::
Eliza Madrigal: ::::neigh:::::::
Sunshine Vayandar: yohooooo ;)
Eliza Madrigal: Hi Xirana :) we're a bit horsey today
Eliza Madrigal: Hi Riddle :)
Riddle Sideways: wow, beautiful horses
Sunshine Vayandar: hi Riddle
Sunshine Vayandar: hi Xiri
Eliza Madrigal: Not sure the horse can sit... will have to put him away for now :)

Riddle Sideways: where are you riding today

Eliza Madrigal: he may need a rest anyway, as he has been in the desert and on the beaches at Paradise
Riddle Sideways: Hi Xir
Sunshine Vayandar: how is everyone
Riddle Sideways: oh, horses go away
Eliza Madrigal: AH, Xirana :))
Sunshine Vayandar: ahh look!
Riddle Sideways: they appear
Riddle Sideways: then disappear
Sunshine Vayandar: ;)
Eliza Madrigal: galloping in and out of existence
Sunshine Vayandar: hmm yes
Eliza Madrigal: like those paper animations
Sunshine Vayandar: [here Sun made 'waving' animations but they wouldn't show up on wiki]
 

Riddle Sideways: oh, another one
Eliza Madrigal: Very nice to see you all
Sunshine Vayandar: wow Xiri
Eliza Madrigal: oooooooohhhhhhhhhh
Eliza Madrigal: beautiful
Sunshine Vayandar: yes ;)
Xirana Oximoxi: Pegasus :)
Sunshine Vayandar: beautiful ;)
Sunshine Vayandar: yay thanks!
Eliza Madrigal: thanks much!
Eliza Madrigal: Morning Sharon :)
SophiaSharon Larnia: hi Eliza, Riddle, Sun and Xirana :)
Sunshine Vayandar: hi Sharon ;)
Xirana Oximoxi: Hi Sophia:)
Eliza Madrigal: Is this intrusive? hehe
Xirana Oximoxi: :)
SophiaSharon Larnia: wow those are really neat
Sunshine Vayandar: that was fun ;)
Eliza Madrigal: uh oh, lost riddle
SophiaSharon Larnia: oh wow thank you!
Xirana Oximoxi: yw:)
Eliza Madrigal: It is quite an exhilarating day in SL so far! :)
Eliza Madrigal: and they fly??
SophiaSharon Larnia: giggles
Eliza Madrigal: hmm
Xirana Oximoxi: maybe not well:)
SophiaSharon Larnia: sits down to behave :)
Eliza Madrigal: hehe
Xirana Oximoxi: :)
Eliza Madrigal: not too much I hope
SophiaSharon Larnia: :D

Eliza Madrigal: So what shall we consider today?
Eliza Madrigal: How is everyone doing with their pause practice and suchlike?
Sunshine Vayandar: still needs lots of practise
Xirana Oximoxi: hmmm... not doing it :(
Eliza Madrigal: Is that due to the season of the year, or?
Xirana Oximoxi: for me it's because I haven't proposed seriously, and also because I don't know exactly how to be aware of pausing every 15 minutes.. I hate clocks
Eliza Madrigal nods nods
Eliza Madrigal: so setting a timer doesn't feel natural?

SophiaSharon Larnia: 9 seconds = about 2-3 breaths

Sunshine Vayandar: Kodo told me about Thich Nhat Hanh - and his monastery in France ...
Sunshine Vayandar: he visited there ... and says that they stop every 15 minutes
Eliza Madrigal: yes Sharon, nice point
Eliza Madrigal: Do they?
SophiaSharon Larnia: interesting Sun
Sunshine Vayandar: yes that is what he said
Eliza Madrigal: do they have a cue, like a bell?
Sunshine Vayandar: yes I think there is a bell
Xirana Oximoxi: yes! I don't think I haven't time to do it.. it's only that if I am concetrate doing something I forget the time
Sunshine Vayandar: yes Xiri
Eliza Madrigal: before SL and PaB I used stoplights as a cue
SophiaSharon Larnia: ha :)
Eliza Madrigal: because I seemed to be driving a lot
Sunshine Vayandar: the way I understand it is ... just to have breaks regularly
Eliza Madrigal: but that doesn't work at home, hehe
Eliza Madrigal nods Sun
Xirana Oximoxi: maybe it's better for me, to try to pause every hour 5 minutes:)
Eliza Madrigal: Pema used to say something like 'poking holes in our routine'

Sunshine Vayandar: whatever feels natural Xiri ...

--BELL--

Xirana Oximoxi: wb Riddle:)
SophiaSharon Larnia: welcome back Riddle :)
Sunshine Vayandar: I think one has the need to relax sometimes ...from the busy things we do
Sunshine Vayandar: wb Riddle ;)
Riddle Sideways: ty, crashed badly
Eliza Madrigal: :( Riddle, but glad you made it back
Sunshine Vayandar: oh sorry bell
Sunshine Vayandar: ;)
SophiaSharon Larnia: hi Yakuzza
Sunshine Vayandar: hi Yaku ;)
Eliza Madrigal: Hi Yaku :)
Yakuzza Lethecus: hey everyone
Riddle Sideways: Hi Yak

Xirana Oximoxi: I agree Sun, I usually stop and go for a walk with doges 4 times a day... and I live in a absolutely quiet place..maybe that's why I feel strange stopping even more:)
Xirana Oximoxi: hi Yaku:)
SophiaSharon Larnia: 4 times a day! wow :P
Eliza Madrigal: I love that phrase.... 'stopping even more'
Sunshine Vayandar: 4 times a day ;)
Eliza Madrigal smiles
Sunshine Vayandar looks at puppy sleeping on my bed ....
Sunshine Vayandar: he would love that ;)
SophiaSharon Larnia: i bet those are some healthy dogs :)
Eliza Madrigal considers that doggies are good practice
Xirana Oximoxi: yes... morning and afternoon 40 minutes walk... the other two times maybe 15 minutes
Xirana Oximoxi: yes! dogs are iike my clock :)

Riddle Sideways: cats are not good practice
SophiaSharon Larnia: <3
Sunshine Vayandar: ;)
Xirana Oximoxi: hehe... no...miauuu :)))
Eliza Madrigal: definitely not, Riddle... well, or they are good practice only when they wish to be
Sunshine Vayandar: it's good to have the 90 sec breaks here

Riddle Sideways: however, cats see things the others (don't, can't or aren't there)
Eliza Madrigal: heheh
SophiaSharon Larnia: smiles
SophiaSharon Larnia: yes, it freaks me out when my cat suddenly swivels its head and I cant see anything there
Eliza Madrigal: :))
Sunshine Vayandar: ;)
Eliza Madrigal: another thing you said, Xirana...
Eliza Madrigal: Xirana (xirana.oximoxi): for me it's because I haven't proposed seriously, and also because I don't know exactly how to be aware of pausing every 15 minutes.. I hate clocks

Eliza Madrigal: 'for me it is because I haven't proposed seriously'
Eliza Madrigal: that's interesting too
Xirana Oximoxi: yes, that's true...
Xirana Oximoxi: and I've thought that it can be a good practice to me...I will have to propose it seriously
Riddle Sideways: sounds like it has to come up in committee
Eliza Madrigal: :)
SophiaSharon Larnia: smiles at Xirana
Xirana Oximoxi: :)
Sunshine Vayandar: ;)
Eliza Madrigal: lots of thoughts about this... there are things that I do for a while before I ever commit in any formal way
Eliza Madrigal: like, consider for a long while... ponder why I would be making a 'decision'
Eliza Madrigal: like preparing ground for planting
Eliza Madrigal: and sometimes in the end I (still) don't come any clearer about 'why'
Sunshine Vayandar: u mean in RL Liz?
Eliza Madrigal: yes... noticing processes.... I think pausing/meditation was like this
Sunshine Vayandar: hmm yes

SophiaSharon Larnia: we make decisions every second
Eliza Madrigal: yes, astounding
SophiaSharon Larnia: at some level
Sunshine Vayandar: true Sharon
Xirana Oximoxi: Eliza... that's a very good exercise for the body, and also you enjoi seeing the plants grow, and at the end maybe you can eat too and its taste is always better than buying in supermarket:)
Eliza Madrigal: but making a mindful decision... sometimes seems it can change the experience of the whole world?

SophiaSharon Larnia: but the momentous ones have a feeling of being locked into them, if not literally, then at least in the sense of being true to your word
Eliza Madrigal: :)) X
Eliza Madrigal: yes, Sharon... hmm
SophiaSharon Larnia: even if the word is *only* to yourself lol
Eliza Madrigal: definitely!!
Eliza Madrigal: decisiveness and devotion are coming together for me... hadn't really seen them as similar until recently
Sunshine Vayandar ponders about Liz's words
Eliza Madrigal: anyway... maybe rambling... still considering 'stopping even more' too
Eliza Madrigal: :)))

Riddle Sideways: the actions happen (or not), but the attitudes of choicing, being ordered, acciedental, of the moment, etc. matter
Riddle Sideways: how we look at what we are doing

--BELL--

Eliza Madrigal smiles at *choicing*
SophiaSharon Larnia: true Riddle! :)
SophiaSharon Larnia: hi Zen
Eliza Madrigal: Hi Zen :)
Yakuzza Lethecus: hey zen
Eliza Madrigal: sometimes we talk about the pauses as stopping to notice what we're doing

Riddle Sideways: do we walk the dog out of devotion

Sunshine Vayandar: hi Zen ;)
Riddle Sideways: Hi Zen
Xirana Oximoxi: if I understand 'devotion' as an special attirance to something, then 'decisveness' may be easy
Zen Arado: Hi all
Xirana Oximoxi: hi Zen
Riddle Sideways: we walk the dog anyway, but in/out of what attitude do we see it
Eliza Madrigal: Hm... yes...
Eliza Madrigal: would seem so, Xirana.... like, some things become more obvious? Walk the dog for love and/or connection? or just because that's what you do when you have a dog?
Zen Arado: or because the dog needs it
Riddle Sideways: we eat the cracker. Is it the scared cracker, the only food we have or because we must
Xirana Oximoxi: attirence = atraction (sorry, I have looked it up now :)
Eliza Madrigal: sometimes I imagine that you do it just because you have a dog

SophiaSharon Larnia: hi Boxy
Eliza Madrigal: Hi Boxy :)
Xirana Oximoxi: hi Boxy:)
Zen Arado: Hi Boxy :)
Eliza Madrigal: great timing Alfred :)

Zen Arado: some get dogs so they have to walk

Eliza Madrigal: it is a commitment that comes with a lot of walks built inside
Eliza Madrigal: heheh
Alfred Kelberry: hi :)
Alfred Kelberry: why is it? :)
Zen Arado: maye boxy needs a walk
Alfred Kelberry: wuff!
Eliza Madrigal smiles
Sunshine Vayandar: hi Boxy ;)
SophiaSharon Larnia: aww :)
Alfred Kelberry: yes, would be nice
Alfred Kelberry: in fact, i'm going in a bit :)
SophiaSharon Larnia: yay

Zen Arado: I can walk from my place to here I just discovered
Zen Arado: and there is a road !
Eliza Madrigal: all the way through?
Sunshine Vayandar: really Zen?
Alfred Kelberry: mm, new folk dress eliza :)

SophiaSharon Larnia: thats been my practice lately, non meditation while going to the park a lot :)

Zen Arado: you have to fly over one place though
Eliza Madrigal: :) blame the sunshine, Alfred ... isn't it lovely :D

Sunshine Vayandar: What about walking to Zen's place as part of the music session
Eliza Madrigal: oooo
Alfred Kelberry: i prefer to teleport - much faster
Sunshine Vayandar: ;)
Eliza Madrigal: playing harp along the way?
Eliza Madrigal: or flute, like the pied piper?
Sunshine Vayandar: hmm yes Liz ;)
SophiaSharon Larnia: thinks of pied pipers :)
Eliza Madrigal: hehehe
Zen Arado: I've only done it once
Zen Arado: might get lost
Eliza Madrigal: oh even better
Alfred Kelberry: i like sticks in your hair, eliza :)
Zen Arado: and someone showed me the way
Sunshine Vayandar: getting lost sounds fun
Eliza Madrigal: Thanks Alfred :)

Eliza Madrigal: aimless wandering
Zen Arado: am I ruthed today?
SophiaSharon Larnia: i didnt know you could walk to mugungwa from here
Sunshine Vayandar: "going nowere slowly"
Eliza Madrigal: and even more slowly
Zen Arado: cos we all TP so much
Sunshine Vayandar: yes Zen - ruthed
Sunshine Vayandar: hmm
Eliza Madrigal: Oh, I see you clearly today Zen
Zen Arado: am I ?
Riddle Sideways: back, Hi boxy alf
Eliza Madrigal: the other day all men were ruthed
Sunshine Vayandar: and Riddle also - in my viewer
Alfred Kelberry: :)
SophiaSharon Larnia: i see now
Eliza Madrigal: yes, Riddle

Sunshine Vayandar: what causes that to happen?
Alfred Kelberry: i've updated to v2.6.6 and the font got bigger in the chat window
Zen Arado: yes noticed that
Eliza Madrigal: not sure Sun
Zen Arado: like that
Alfred Kelberry: ok, not a glitch then :)
Zen Arado: Phoenix is so small
Alfred Kelberry: but the rest is the same - not consistent
Riddle Sideways: I ruthed?
Zen Arado: but what to do about ruthing?
Sunshine Vayandar: yes Riddle - in my viewer
Alfred Kelberry: what about ruthing?
Eliza Madrigal: yes Riddle, as many have been lately
Alfred Kelberry: oh
Riddle Sideways: hmmmm, and why does rebake textures do nothing
Zen Arado: it's happening to me lately
Alfred Kelberry: must be new server code
Alfred Kelberry: riddle, it never does for me
Riddle Sideways: new viewer code today
SophiaSharon Larnia: hmm
Alfred Kelberry: well, ruthing is related to server
Eliza Madrigal: here we must accept that others may see us quite differently than we see ourselves :)

Sunshine Vayandar: can it be caused by slower connection?
Riddle Sideways: should be a command to make rebake work
Xirana Oximoxi: what does 'ruthed' mean? I find that in dictionnary http://www.thefreedictionary.com/Ruthed
Sunshine Vayandar: yes Liz
Sunshine Vayandar: Xiri - it means that in SL - sometimes guys have a female shape when they rez
Riddle Sideways: does not mean the Ruth of Bible
Alfred Kelberry: eliza, i've prepared to that several days ago *hint: read my profile* :)
Zen Arado: it is a default av female shape
Xirana Oximoxi: :) yes Rid! I suppose so:)

Eliza Madrigal: James Franco worked ith film teacher friend, to let a bunch of students use footage of him in any way they liked, to tell whatever story they wanted
Eliza Madrigal: ok Boxy, looking....
Alfred Kelberry: ruth is a default av in sl, xir
Eliza Madrigal: cute :)

Xirana Oximoxi: oh! thanks! SL has some special words just for in world
Alfred Kelberry: :)
Alfred Kelberry: xir, such words form in any social group
Alfred Kelberry: i'm sure you have some :)
Eliza Madrigal: SL speak
Xirana Oximoxi: yes, I agree... but one must learn them too:)

Riddle Sideways: e.g. pab

Eliza Madrigal: I consider 'math' one of those
Eliza Madrigal: heheh

--BELL--

Eliza Madrigal: true, some things we say in pab sound ridiculous other places
Riddle Sideways: apapb
SophiaSharon Larnia: haha'

Xirana Oximoxi: :) ty:)
Eliza Madrigal: :)

Alfred Kelberry: "Taken from the movie Tron's term "de-rezz", which roughly means to dissolve in a certain way. "

SophiaSharon Larnia: i think everywhere
Eliza Madrigal: yes good question
Eliza Madrigal: trolling is everywhere
Alfred Kelberry: :)
SophiaSharon Larnia: ;p
Eliza Madrigal: set environment
Zen Arado: what is trolling?
Eliza Madrigal: I'm not totally clear Zen, think that has different contexts

Zen Arado: using someones elses av?
Eliza Madrigal: but is a kind of griefing
Eliza Madrigal: usually
Eliza Madrigal: that would be 'being zen arado'
Eliza Madrigal: (using someone else's av)
Eliza Madrigal: :D
Riddle Sideways: is that a movie?
Eliza Madrigal: Being John Malcovich

Alfred Kelberry: oh, a long definition: "a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[2] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion."
Xirana Oximoxi: I use Urban dictionnary for non 'standat' English http://www.urbandictionary.com/defin...?term=trolling
Alfred Kelberry: thanks wikipedia
Zen Arado: there is a website for ruthing
Zen Arado: http://ruthed.com/
Alfred Kelberry: eliza, awesome movie!
SophiaSharon Larnia: oh http://cyfishy.com/slexicon.html
Eliza Madrigal: quite an idea
Eliza Madrigal: there is an office between floors and they have to crawl through to get into someone's view... but they still have their own mind, seemingly
Eliza Madrigal: after a while they are spit out on the side of the road
Eliza Madrigal: heheh
Alfred Kelberry: zen, looks like a troll site :)
Zen Arado: ah yes
Zen Arado: nothing to do with ruthing..just ugly truths

Eliza Madrigal: OK... best way I know of dissolving (boundaries) is music.....
Sunshine Vayandar smiles
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Alfred Kelberry: sophia, ah nice :)
Eliza Madrigal: I sounded like a news anchor just then, huh?
Eliza Madrigal: Over to Sun...
Eliza Madrigal: hehehe

Sunshine Vayandar: after the break - as part of the music session - we are going for a hike ...

Alfred Kelberry: "Neko: An otherwise human-shaped avatar wearing cat ears and a tail." *looks at sophia* :)
