Misty Chicken Lake at Natthimmel

In the heart of the Yukon, between the small, forgotten towns of Mayo and Chicken, lies the enigmatic Misty Lake. This secluded body of water, perpetually cloaked in a thick, eerie fog, is a place where silence and shadows dominate. Tall, ancient pines encircle the lake, their dark green needles shrouded in mist, casting ghostly silhouettes along the shore. The trees seem to guard Misty Chicken Lake, their towering forms swaying slightly, as if murmuring secrets to the fog. Even on still days, a damp chill clings to the air, hinting at mysteries hidden deep within the shadowy waters. Locals say the pines remember everything, and that under a full moon, the forest whispers to those brave enough to listen.

Spiralo

“Spiralo” is a virtual cultural complex produced by the noise-classical music project 'Tia Rungray'. The space includes a sound installation hall, a gallery, a café, and a shopping floor. The name "Spiralo" means "spiral" in Esperanto, and the name comes from the fact that the floors are arranged in a spiral pattern, inspired by the image of everyday life and art blending together in virtual life. The idea is to make it easier to enjoy high-quality art activities in Second Life and to make visitors more aware of their close relationship to life. It functions to make everyday activities such as watching, listening, dressing, talking and photography more artistic. It offers you a way to enjoy the time and space in which you can relax in everyday life. As a cultural hub for contemporary art in Second Life, “Spiralo” hopes to continue to create a cultural scene.
