"Land of Illusion" Machinima

RMB City Blog: by Gianna Yebut, June 12, 2009

Going back to the concept of ‘heterotopy’ (other space), today I’ve come upon a beautiful machinima entitled ‘Land of Illusion’ by Beijing media artists Lily Xiying Yang and Honglei Li (杨熙瑛, 李宏磊). It’s a very dense and multilayered tale about freedom of thought and cultural isolation and it interestingly superimposes different Chinese traditions and folklor… Continue

"Prometheus" Takes Second Life Expressionist Machinima Ever Closer to the Sun

In the Second Life machinima "Prometheus", the Greek legend is retold in bold imagery and blood-soaked symbolism, as if the story of the man who defied the gods had become a Dali-esque fever dream. Created by Luca Lisci, an Italian artist who is known in Second Life as Vive Voom, it's a glorious visual feast you should best watch in a darkened room with the lights turned low:
