Slang Life advertising campaign in Second Life



The second issue of SL'ang Life monthly magazine is on it's way to all the subscribers up to date. This does not stop the Slang Life Corp. from trying to reach each and every avatar in SL with the message that the first ever printed magazine about Second Life is available to any avatar for FREE!
Recently Slang signed with Mainostaulu to promote the megaposters featuring the magazine on more than 1200 displays located in over 300 different sims. The displays distribute SlangLife Island landmarks and web subscription URLs. The action will last for one month. As a result, SL'ang Life expects thousands of new subscribers.

Thom Dowd renaissance concert

Carnival in Venice this year takes place between 25th January and 5th February. We celebrated the beginning of carnaval with renaissance concert by Thom Dowd.

Thom Dowd (Thomas Coard) was born in Michigan U.S.A. and has been living Switzerland since 1978. He teaches recorder at the Conservatory of Fribourg, Switzerland.

After 27 years of teaching Thom started recording renaissance multi-voice music with a computer. This opened the door to new inspiration and the possibility to perform the music that he really loves to a world wide audience. Second Life and the virtual world have created a new way to conceive and to present the music of the renaissance and baroque. The great composers of that age of light shall be reborn in the virtual world where the need for their purity of sound is greater than at anytime since 1400.

Thom Dowd in Concert - SL'ang Life Library

Thom Dowd -performing Live for the Slang Life audience


On saturday 26.01.2008 we had a fantastic live concert of Thom Dowd, playing a repertoire of renaissance dance music. Our Library got crowded long before Thom started to play and while he was playing, new avatars kept coming. It was a great experience both from the musical and educational point of view. I was quite surprized that so many avatars are actively interested in classical music. We plan to organize this kind of concerts in the Library more often, In fact every saturday from now on, one would be able to join us in the Library Classics Live Music Meetings.

Thom Dowd (alias Thomas Coard) was born in Michigan U.S.A. and has been living Switzerland since 1978. He teaches recorder at the Conservatory of Fribourg. Thom studied early music and recorder at Oakland University in Michigan with Lyle Nordstrom before going on to the Musik Akadamie in Basel Switzerland where he studied with Michael Piguet.
After 27 years of teaching Thom started recording renaissance multi-voice music with a computer. This opened the door to new inspiration and the possibility to perform the music that he really loves to a world wide audience. Second Life and the virtual world have created a new way to conceive and to present the music of the renaissance and baroque.
