Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Welcome all to this week's Oxbridge Deans' Q&A, your chance to hear what staff has been doing and then to ask questions, comment, make announcements, and so forth. |
| 15:06 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
This is an open meeting, all are welcome except for those with an intent to misbehave in a disruptive manner. Non-disruptive misbehavior is at your discretion. Transcripts will be posted following the meeting. |
| 15:06 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Phrynne, can you start? |
| 15:06 |
Phrynne |
Yes, though I don't have very much this week. |
| 15:06 |
Eva Gaelle (jucastt) |
hello, I'm laggy. Sorry if I bumped someone. everytime I tried to give a step my avatar just walk away randomly |
| 15:06 |
Eva Gaelle (jucastt) |
hello, Rainy! |
| 15:07 |
Phrynne |
I've been fine-tuning the decor for the spring season -- you may notice a few changes each week as I continue to do so. |
| 15:07 |
RainyDayRecess |
Hi Eva, it's alright ;) |
| 15:07 |
|
Agatha Macbeth nods |
| 15:08 |
Phrynne |
I am experimenting with how I arrange things, to reduce lag -- so please let me know if you experience a lot of lag anywhere at Oxbridge. That way I may be able to figure out what's causing it. For instance, there is one type of decorative grass with flowers that caused problems last year; I will not use it near the plaza again. |
| 15:08 |
Agatha Macbeth |
Grass causes lag? Wow |
| 15:08 |
Phrynne |
Otherwise, I have been rechecking some LMs -- it's an ongoing process, making sure all the LMs on the notecards in the Faculty Kit are accurate and up to date. |
| 15:09 |
Badass Fae (larkylouz) |
Ms. Macbeth, it is because one has to stop to sneeze violently, on every other step! |
| 15:09 |
Phrynne |
Yes, the grass caused lag -- it was very thick and very detailed, with tiny flowers in it and seeds on the stems. |
| 15:09 |
Agatha Macbeth |
Oh my |
| 15:09 |
Phrynne |
so if I use that again, I'll put it near the labyrinth or on the outside of the buildings. |
| 15:09 |
RainyDayRecess |
Depends on how they were made |
| 15:09 |
Phrynne |
And that's all for now. |
| 15:09 |
Phrynne |
It was mesh, one prim. |
| 15:10 |
Phrynne |
just exquisitely detailed, with changeable colors. |
| 15:10 |
|
Badass Fae (larkylouz) sneezes. |
| 15:10 |
RainyDayRecess |
:D |

Phrynne hands out tissues |

Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Thank you, Phrynne. |
| 15:10 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
you can keep it larky |
| 15:10 |
|
Badass Fae (larkylouz) sniffels |
| 15:11 |
|
Badass Fae (larkylouz) sticks her tongue out at Andrea. |
| 15:11 |
Eva Gaelle (jucastt) |
oh! |
| 15:11 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
And even at one prim, it can have multiple materials and be playing continually with visibility of different parts. |
| 15:11 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Andrea? |
| 15:12 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
sadly my human element has been down with kidney stones this week and weekend so didn't get much done with anything. Looking at a carnival soon as a fundraiser. |

| 15:14 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
Yup |
| 15:16 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Nothing really from me this week. A head cold's been knocking me out. I have checked out a few jazz clubs as potential recommendations. |
| 15:16 |
Agatha Macbeth |
An interesting cure |
| 15:16 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Open for questions, comments, announcements. |
| 15:17 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Music helps, but not so much a cure but something doable without a lot of focus. |
| 15:17 |
|
Agatha Macbeth nods |
| 15:18 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
Still hosting the Writers' Meeting in Thursdays' 11:00 AM |

Anything else? |
| 15:20 |
Gronk Seriman |
If you are new to SL, now is the time to ask questions. You'll rarely find so many helpful people in one place. |
| 15:21 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Don't be afraid, btw, to join us late or leave early as meets your need. We are happy to have you join us as you can. |
| 15:21 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |

Wordsmith Jarvinen |
So, you can get parts missed after the fact. |
| 15:22 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Eva? |
| 15:22 |
Eva Gaelle (jucastt) |
to helping with fundraising event. |
| 15:23 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Yes? |
| 15:23 |
Eva Gaelle (jucastt) |
we could try to make a spectacle and ask to people for donations. I know the manager of royal opera and once time he told that he could give me a already done spectacle |
| 15:24 |
Eva Gaelle (jucastt) |
I can ask to him to se if he still able to help |
| 15:24 |
Eva Gaelle (jucastt) |
he are close friends. |
| 15:24 |
Phrynne |
could you say a little more about what a spectacle is? |
| 15:24 |
Eva Gaelle (jucastt) |
do you know royal opera here in second life? |
| 15:24 |
Phrynne |
I've heard of it but I doubt that everyone here knows about it. |
| 15:25 |
Eva Gaelle (jucastt) |
well, they make classic spectacles of opera, ballet, theater or dance. |
| 15:26 |
Eva Gaelle (jucastt) |
or performances of singers like Maria callas |
| 15:26 |
lovejoy2199 |
hummm...I am learning something new today. Word is into jazz. Ans Eva knows the Royal Opera! Two of my favorite things. |
| 15:26 |

| 15:27 |
Eva Gaelle (jucastt) |
and we can perform that. |
| 15:27 |
Brenda (brendaharden) |
By spectacles do you mean productions? |
| 15:28 |
Eva Gaelle (jucastt) |

| 15:28 |
Eva Gaelle (jucastt) |

| 15:28 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
On the level of flash mobs? |

I'd love something like that |

All of that reminds me that Phrynne and I caught a production of Abduction from the Seraglio done in Star Trek settings. This was at the Sultana theater in Mondrago, but https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xhKhWTHw89Y |
| 15:32 |
Agatha Macbeth |
Good heavens |

The Gorn showed up twice but did not have a singing role. |
| 15:34 |
Badass Fae (larkylouz) |
I have heard from fanfic experts that Spock's singing voice leaves a lot to be desired. . . |
| 15:34 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Welcome, Sandie |

Phrynne |
