June has been really busy, especially with me volunteering to cover the SL11B exhibits for this year's 11th SL birthday. The birthday is officially June 23, 2014, but there shall be two full weeks of all kinds of fun including exhibits, live performances, discussions with designers, and more. This year's 11 sims feature tours via ride-able pods, exhibits created by members of SL, hunts, freebies, and gifts everywhere. Even if you aren't the sociable sort, you can still explore a vast majority of these sims without running into too many people.

I was taken on a tour of the 11 Sims by our amazing guide Saffia Widdershins. She is one of the people guiding and feeding information to members of this year's SL11B Press Group. She did an amazing job showing us around and telling us about the exhibits all over. I really have to thank her for making my first encounter with SL's birthday festivities a pleasant one. I had never been to one of these events. She knew a lot of the history about the birthday and had a warm, bright sense of humor that made the tour the highlight of my day.

I'll have to say, the gifts and items are everywhere. Stores such as Kittycats have specialty free gifts placed everywhere around the 11 sims, and what is even better, you can fully participate in the 11th Birthday -without- spending a dime. Everything in this event is free. Free. Nada. Zilch. You can participate in this event without spending one linden towards anything. This entire 2 weeks of fun is completely free of charge.

There are many, many exhibits on these sims, but my favorite has to be Loki Eliot's Astound Cake Exhibit. I felt like I was in space or even included in a game of space invaders. The sky is 100% animated and can be seen even on low graphics. The lag is reasonably low when it isn't filled with a bunch of people listening to the DJ performances which take place in this part of the exhibit. The amazing thing is that you are encouraged to fly everywhere here and you can jump to the numerous platforms. I'm also going to mention that Loki hinted at hiding a bunch of free gifts in the cake exhibit.

The atmosphere of the exhibit is just extraordinary. It is literally the most beautiful thing I have ever experienced in my two years of playing Second Life. Our tour guide, Saffia Widdershins, had a very difficult time trying to get everyone out of there to finish the tour. We were all astounded by how amazing and interactive this single exhibit was. I'm going to say I'm probably going to cry when these two weeks are over. I wish Linden Labs would make an exception for this exhibit and leave it up forever.

Gazing up towards the ceiling of the exhibit, I felt like I was gazing at the eye of Glados from Portal, or maybe a sister of hers. This place would be awesome to experiment with science. This exhibit brought so much joy to me. I loved it.
This is just one of the posts I will be featuring the SL11th Birthday on. I hope you'll enjoy the events just as much as I have been!
