Once a day, during nightfall the Berlin TV tower switches its warning lights from white to red. I love this, magic! and I’ve looked out for it often over the years. Tonight I finally caught this moment on video. Be my personal hero and watch the whole thing! Or skip to 1:00 min if you are in a rush ;))) … Or even better try to catch the moment in Berlin on the street, it is around 9:45pm currently.

Looks like the expanded new Wall Memorial Berlin Bernauerstrasse will open soon.

I wish my camera had more pixels and the window was less foggy. Berlin is actually not as big as it sounds  like. Go to full res and you ll have much more pixels than inhabitants. (found at 10.000 feet on the way to zurich last saturday…)

Grab your tools and join the Sandbox Berlin! Use your hands and create!

In a two day workshop 4.-5.10.07 everybody is invited to work with their keyboard/mouse spoiled hands in Real Life. ;-)

Let’s create a Sandbox. What are we able to invent and create in two days? There is no plan and no rules! Log off from Second Life for two days and enjoy the Sandbox Berlin.

Tonight we will start with an introduction and discussion.
What is the sandbox in Second Life? What is so special about it? Why I am doing this?
