not bellmer berber anita's hans transformed new early version of the avatar 'outt' behavior from the archives - http://www.asondheim.org/blue.mov . the avatar is blue in a construct-space of outt-structure. one after another, these avatars parade. i make them do things. what of this doing? it could continue, as-if forever. given the largesse of linden corporation. it could speak and eat. it could move about the place in a variety of ways. it could interact. it could move into buildings or spaces i could create or could purchase. it could hold or manipulate objects i could give it. it could give these objects away. it could attach these objects. it could detach these objects. this too could continue. i am tired of portraiture. i am bored by it. i am bored by images close to abject. i am tired of parades. i am tired of sex implications or violence implications. i am tired of mappings. there is nothing in second life that is not in first life. there is nothing in first life that is not in second life. i can move into buildings. i can manipulate objects. i can give objects away or create objects or sustain objects or destroy objects. objects can mediate for me. i can make objects speak for me. i can make objects speak. i can make objects show. objects can show for me. it is not boredom or tiredness. it is defuge in the verbal sense. it is 'i defuge' or in passive 'i am defuged.' neither one nor the other matters in terms of prime mover during a period of decathection. i can continue just like this forever. each avatar-video or each avatar-performance is different in content from each other but not in degree. sukara, dakshinanila, nandiskandhardhara, dhurya, prakata, pritvardhana, aparajita, sarvasattva, govinda, adhrita. analysis goes the length of the instantiation. each avatar is avatar-instance. come see my avatar move. come see my avatar think. my avatar is beauty beauty. the virtual is a desert. the virtual is depopulated. the energy infinite and the movement spectacular. and the movement forever. one after another until a genre is born. until genre is borne. until an atlas rises and collapses. until demarcation is lost in gamespace. now this avatar is a motion of second life avatar. this avatar portends second life avatar. you cannot walk through this avatar nor cross the other side. but this avatar is spectacular. this avatar moves in deadspace. this avatar lives in deadspace. this portends second life. second life is grand on a vast and spectacular scale. second life extends everywhere. close your eyes and there is second life. second life is the dream of women dream of men. i say there is too much of it. i say too much avatar. too much trope. too much behavior and too much behavior collision and too much stancedance and too much packaging. too much exchange and too much color. too much linden day and too much linden night. oh our nights are linden nights and our days are linden days. objects spaces and avatars and owners and behaviors and exchanges. i speak to you from my world. my world is a pretty penny. i hide my face from you. you do not look upon my face. my face is a pretty penny.
