I am posting this text to clarify what i am doing... it is not to earn money here, even that I have a currency on my grid.
My intention is to open minds.
If you are on a journey to fully realize your creative potential, I can support you.
I offer coaching focused on exploring creative ideas and plans through writing. You prepare by writing a bit about your project. Using the notes you send to idee (at) kreakurs.de, we will discuss the project via Proton Meet that I can invite you to, and work on bringing your creative potential to life. The focus here is on the process rather than the final product.
I can also assist you in developing a specific creative project—whether it’s a piece of wall art, an interior design concept, a piece of jewelry, or a craft project (you can find ideas in the "Ideas" section). I can send you photos and demonstrate the techniques live via webcam, or we can work together in my home studio if you live in the Munich area.
"I cannot dismiss my dreams without notice.
I still owe them my life."
Imagination is a fundamental tool of consciousness that significantly enriches your life. If you wish to rediscover your creativity, you’ve come to the right place!
Do you remember your childhood and youth? In my creative course, you can discover that the same freshness and inner freedom still reside within you...
Simply tell me about your dreams and wishes—either in person or via email. I will help you take a step forward on your path toward your goal. I would like to accompany you and open your eyes to both the world around you and your inner world. You will be amazed at how colorful, exciting, and deeply rewarding imaginative thoughts and conversations can be.
Everyone needs creativity and imagination to navigate daily life and to find unique solutions to new challenges. Many people believe they cannot do crafts, paint, write, or come up with something imaginative. I believe it is simply a matter of practice. Let yourself be inspired and give me the chance to show you the possibilities.

KREAKURS – THE CREATIVITY QUESTIONNAIRE
What do you want to achieve?
Have you already tried to make it happen?
What have you enjoyed doing in your life?
Perhaps as a child, perhaps as a hobby:
photography, painting, cooking, crafting, languages, building things, sewing doll clothes, making music, growing flowers…
Is there a person whose creativity particularly inspires you?
What is it about their creativity that fascinates you?
If you could be someone else for a week, who would you choose?
A politician? Goethe? A person of the opposite sex? Your boss? Van Gogh? A prostitute? An animal?
How much time would you like to devote to your creativity?
An hour a week? Five hours a month? Or perhaps a whole weekend?
Is there a place where you feel especially comfortable and where your thoughts can wander freely?
A forest, a lake, a museum, a boat, a meadow…?
Do you need to express yourself creatively — or is creativity something you simply have to “embrace”?
Which materials do you enjoy working with?
Water, wine, clay, pictures, paper, colours…
And which materials would you rather avoid?
And finally:
After answering all these questions, can you imagine a creative goal for yourself?

Art Therapy Box – Starter Kit
Paper & Printed Materials
A stack of colorful construction paper
Old book pages or newspaper clippings
A few beautiful old maps
Washi tape or decorative adhesive tape
Tracing paper or parchment paper for layering
Textiles / Fabric
Small fabric scraps (e.g., denim and lace for contrast)
A piece of ribbon or yarn
Structure & Texture
Potato mesh bag or netting (tulle)
A piece of aluminum foil (crumple, smooth, or texture it)
Decorative Elements
A small packet of postage stamps or old tickets
Dried leaves or flowers
A few buttons or beads
Tools & Supplies
Scissors or a craft knife
Glue stick + liquid craft glue
Paintbrushes and small sponges
Watercolor or acrylic paints (primary colors are sufficient)
Colored pencils or markers
Ruler and pencil
A cutting mat or a sturdy piece of cardboard to work on
With this box, you can:
Create collages (paper + textiles + mementos)
Start mixed-media experiments (foil, netting, textures with paint)
Design cards and small artworks (stamps, watercolor, stencils)
Engage in therapeutic work: layering, tearing, painting over, feeling textures.
A box like this thrives on evolution—whenever you come across a lovely piece of paper, a ticket, or a button, you simply add it to the collection.
Here is a short "10-Minute Exercise List" for your art therapy box. Each exercise is brief, intuitive, and easy to do, without putting yourself under pressure. Think of them as conversation starters rather than mandatory tasks. 10-Minute Exercises with the Art Therapy Box
Paper Scrap Storm
Tear three different types of paper into irregular pieces and glue them down to depict movement (e.g., wind, water, or chaos).
Colored Shadows
Place tracing paper over an old book page and use watercolors or markers to paint only the "shadows" surrounding the words.
Texture Frottage
Place a potato mesh bag or aluminum foil under a sheet of paper and rub over it with a colored pencil—discover the patterns.
Mini-Map
Cut out a section of a map and add painted symbols (sun, heart, arrows)—as if it were a map of your inner world.
10 Circles
Draw ten circles on a sheet of paper and fill each one with a different material: paper, fabric, buttons, paint, or patterns.
Stamp Poem
Glue down three old postage stamps and write three words next to them that spontaneously come to mind—creating a mini-poem.
Leaves in Dialogue
Take two dried leaves, glue them down, and draw a "conversation line" between them using words or symbols.
Button Mandala
Arrange buttons, beads, or round elements into a mandala pattern and secure them with glue, or trace the design.
Square Collage
Cut out a 10×10 cm square of cardboard and fill it completely with collage materials within 10 minutes—without overthinking it.
The Hidden Word
Write a word that is currently important to you in large letters on paper. Cover it with layers of tracing paper, paint, and scraps—until it is only faintly visible. These exercises are intentionally kept brief—more like playful prompts than "high art." They can be expanded or developed into larger projects at any time.
That’s wonderful—in that case, I’ll add 10 exercises to your collection that delve deeper and can help with reflection. They remain playful but open up more space for inner processes.
10 In-depth Art Therapy Exercises Using the Box
Map of Feelings
Choose three colors that match your mood. Use them to paint or collage a "map of your feelings." Mark specific locations: "Island of Calm," "Mountain of Anger," "Lake of Sorrow."
Hidden Message
Write a sentence on a sheet of paper that you wouldn't tell anyone else. Cover it with other materials or paint so that only fragments remain visible. Observe how it feels to hide it.
Layered Collage
Build up multiple layers using paper, tracing paper, fabric, and adhesive. Each layer represents a phase of life or a specific experience. Pause whenever a particular "layer" feels significant to you.
The Crumpled Feeling
Write a word or draw an image representing something troubling on paper. Crumple it up, glue it into your artwork in its wrinkled state, and incorporate colors or shapes around it—symbolizing that fractures are also part of the whole.
Tracing Paths
Glue down old tickets, letters, or newspaper clippings and add lines representing paths or networks—as if you were mapping out your own personal history.
Inner Symbol of Protection
Use metallic paper, buttons, and fabric scraps to create a symbol that offers you protection (e.g., a shield, a cloak, a circle). Tune in to whether looking at it makes you feel stronger.
The Invisible Dialogue
Glue two......place various elements (e.g., a leaf and a postage stamp) far apart. Draw lines or patterns between them—as if they were conversing with each other.
Color Mirror
Paint spontaneously using brushes or sponges, choosing colors intuitively. Afterward, give it a name: "This is me right now"—without passing judgment.
Time Window
Take an old photo or a newspaper clipping, paste a window made of tracing paper over it, and paint inside it to show how you view that time today.
The Place of Calm
Create a small sanctuary on paper using map fragments, fabric, paint, and paper. A room, an island, or a cabin—it doesn't matter if it is realistic or fantastical.
These exercises are designed for self-exploration: making feelings visible, processing memories, and discovering inner symbols. They are open-ended—there is no right or wrong.
7-Day Art Therapy Challenge
It is structured so that each day has a different focus: ranging from lighthearted play and experimentation to deeper self-reflection. Duration: 10–20 minutes each—depending on how much time you wish to spend.
Day 1 – Playful Start
Exercise: Paper Scrap Storm
Tear three different types of paper (e.g., colored cardstock, newspaper, wrapping paper) into irregular pieces and glue them down to create a sense of movement—like wind, waves, or a swirl.
👉 Goal: Loosen up; start without pressure or expectations.
Day 2 – Sensing Color
Exercise: Color Mirror
Pick up brushes or sponges and paint intuitively using the colors that draw you in. Afterward, give it a name: "This is me right now."
👉 Goal: Connect with your current mood. Day 3 – Exploring Textures
Exercise: Texture Rubbing
Place a potato mesh bag, aluminum foil, or sandpaper under a sheet of paper and rub over it with a colored pencil or marker. Combine multiple textures on a single sheet.
👉 Goal: Discover surprising effects and playfully try something new.
Day 4 – Layers of Memory
Exercise: Layered Collage
Work in multiple layers: an old book page, tracing paper, a scrap of fabric, paint. Each layer represents a phase of life or a thought.
👉 Goal: Visually layer the past and the present.
Day 5 – Transforming Feelings
Exercise: The Crumpled Feeling
Write a word or make a small sketch representing a troubling feeling on paper. Crumple it up, glue it onto your artwork, and create a design around it using colors or patterns until it transforms.
👉 Goal: Accept the negative and creatively reshape it.
Day 6 – The Inner Dialogue
Exercise: Invisible Connection
Glue two different elements (e.g., a button and a postage stamp, a leaf and a ticket) far apart from each other. Draw or paint lines, patterns, or symbols between them—as if they were communicating.
👉 Goal: Depict relationships, tensions, or connections.
Day 7 – Your Safe Place
Exercise: A Place of Calm
Create your sanctuary on paper: an island, a room, or an imaginary house. Use maps, fabric, washi tape, or paint. What matters isn't beauty, but the feeling of safety and comfort.
👉 Goal: Create a resource you can return to internally.
This takes you on a short creative journey: from lightness and exploration to self-empowerment.

| | Honeypot Starchild: And once again, a really great location, really nice people, and great music. That's how a party should be! 8 days ago |
I went to the beach today… without ever leaving my computer.
I started with a simple sand castle, and of course one thing led to another. Before I knew it, there was a mermaid, an octopus, a sea turtle and finally a dolphin joining the party.
So now we have an entire little collection of sand sculptures!
I love how these turned out — especially all the tiny shells, starfish and carved details. They should be fun scattered along a beach or grouped together to make a little sand sculpture display.
Sometimes the best projects are the ones you didn't plan at all.

migration begins! after about a year of running we're making some changes to assetd server. originally it stored assets in ipfs and kept local zstd compressed files on each region server. this burned up alot of drive space and 10 years down the road just isn't sustainable. So I'm getting rid of ipfs and storing all assets in s3 bucket. assetd pulls the assets on request, fixes broken ones if needed. with squid cache between assetd and opensim things are much faster. squid keeps current assets in ram for fast loading and stores less active assets in an optimized file structure. we can adjust the levels to increase ram and drive cache. i'm currently moving 2,583,234 assets into s3 bucket. after that's complete we just need to restart the grid, shouldn't be any downtime during the transfer though. on dev server assets load super fast. so we hope to have a better experience on holoneon grid in the next few days.

Halloween with Fred: The Zombie That Just Won’t Stay Dead
Halloween is creeping closer, which means it is time to dig through the wonderfully strange corners of Outworldz and resurrect a few old friends.
And this one is very difficult to keep dead.
Meet Fred’s Animated Zombie.
This isn't the sort of zombie that stands in the corner of your Halloween build looking menacing while everyone ignores it.
Fred apparently looked at that idea and decided zombies needed a better job description.
This zombie walks.
It attacks.
It makes noise.
You can hit it.
It falls apart.
It puts itself back together.
And, naturally...
YOU CAN RIDE IT.
Because why run away from the zombie when you can climb aboard and drive the thing around?
A Zombie With a Few Tricks Left in Him
Fred designed the zombie as an animated wandering character using his Prim Animation Compiler system.
The animation sequence includes standing, attacking, walking with alternating left and right steps, reacting to hits, taking a particularly nasty hit, and finally falling completely to pieces.
But death is apparently only a temporary inconvenience.
After enough abuse, the zombie collapses into scattered pieces on the ground.
Wait a bit...
...and he puts himself back together.
Then off he goes again.
There is something wonderfully Fred about engineering an undead creature that even death can't persuade to stop working.
Go Ahead. Hit Him.
The zombie actually keeps score as people interact with him.
Clicking him causes a hit reaction and eventually does enough damage to trigger the full death animation.
Head, arms, body — down he goes.
Then the zombie reassembles himself and resumes wandering around.
It makes a great interactive Halloween prop because visitors aren't simply looking at something spooky. They're causing things to happen.
And probably clicking him repeatedly just to see him explode again.
We know how people are.
But Wait — There's a Ride Me Button
This may be my favorite part.
Right-click the zombie and choose RIDE ME.
Your avatar climbs aboard, and suddenly the shambling Halloween decoration has become transportation.
Fred's script turns the zombie into a controllable vehicle, allowing you to steer him with your arrow keys.
So while everyone else is arriving at the Halloween party on broomsticks, motorcycles and dragons, you can make your entrance...
piggybacking on a zombie.
I think that wins Halloween.
When You Get Off, It Gets Even Better
Getting off your undead transportation doesn't simply end the ride.
The zombie falls apart.
Then he reassembles himself.
Then he walks back home.
Because apparently Fred even taught the zombie to clean up after the party.
The Engineering Behind the Silly
That's what I particularly enjoy about discoveries like this in the Outworldz archives.
They're funny, but underneath the humor is some genuinely clever scripting.
The zombie combines prim animation, sounds, physics, vehicle controls, randomized movement, interaction, damage scoring, roaming boundaries and a home position into one wonderfully ridiculous project.
Fred didn't just explain how to use it, either. His original tutorial documents how the animations are recorded, how the physics base is constructed, how the sounds are added, how the riding position is created and how the scripts work together.
It's one of those projects where you can play with the finished creation — or dig into the code and learn something from the way it was made.
That has always been part of the fun of Outworldz.
Build something.
Take it apart.
Learn how it works.
Change it.
And occasionally ride it around while it makes monster noises.
Resurrect Something This Halloween
There are years and years of creations tucked away at Outworldz, and Halloween seems like an excellent excuse to start opening some of those old crypts.
Fred's zombie certainly deserves another walk among the living.
Just remember one important rule:
If you manage to kill him...
don't celebrate too quickly.
He's getting back up. https://outworldz.com/Secondlife/posts/zombie/
Halloween is creeping closer, which means it is time to dig through the wonderfully strange corners of Outworldz and resurrect a few old friends.
And this one is very difficult to keep dead.
Meet Fred’s Animated Zombie.
This isn't the sort of zombie that stands in the corner of your Halloween build looking menacing while everyone ignores it.
Fred apparently looked at that idea and decided zombies needed a better job description.
This zombie walks.
It attacks.
It makes noise.
You can hit it.
It falls apart.
It puts itself back together.
And, naturally...
YOU CAN RIDE IT.
Because why run away from the zombie when you can climb aboard and drive the thing around?
A Zombie With a Few Tricks Left in Him
Fred designed the zombie as an animated wandering character using his Prim Animation Compiler system.
The animation sequence includes standing, attacking, walking with alternating left and right steps, reacting to hits, taking a particularly nasty hit, and finally falling completely to pieces.
But death is apparently only a temporary inconvenience.
After enough abuse, the zombie collapses into scattered pieces on the ground.
Wait a bit...
...and he puts himself back together.
Then off he goes again.
There is something wonderfully Fred about engineering an undead creature that even death can't persuade to stop working.
Go Ahead. Hit Him.
The zombie actually keeps score as people interact with him.
Clicking him causes a hit reaction and eventually does enough damage to trigger the full death animation.
Head, arms, body — down he goes.
Then the zombie reassembles himself and resumes wandering around.
It makes a great interactive Halloween prop because visitors aren't simply looking at something spooky. They're causing things to happen.
And probably clicking him repeatedly just to see him explode again.
We know how people are.
But Wait — There's a Ride Me Button
This may be my favorite part.
Right-click the zombie and choose RIDE ME.
Your avatar climbs aboard, and suddenly the shambling Halloween decoration has become transportation.
Fred's script turns the zombie into a controllable vehicle, allowing you to steer him with your arrow keys.
So while everyone else is arriving at the Halloween party on broomsticks, motorcycles and dragons, you can make your entrance...
piggybacking on a zombie.
I think that wins Halloween.
When You Get Off, It Gets Even Better
Getting off your undead transportation doesn't simply end the ride.
The zombie falls apart.
Then he reassembles himself.
Then he walks back home.
Because apparently Fred even taught the zombie to clean up after the party.
The Engineering Behind the Silly
That's what I particularly enjoy about discoveries like this in the Outworldz archives.
They're funny, but underneath the humor is some genuinely clever scripting.
The zombie combines prim animation, sounds, physics, vehicle controls, randomized movement, interaction, damage scoring, roaming boundaries and a home position into one wonderfully ridiculous project.
Fred didn't just explain how to use it, either. His original tutorial documents how the animations are recorded, how the physics base is constructed, how the sounds are added, how the riding position is created and how the scripts work together.
It's one of those projects where you can play with the finished creation — or dig into the code and learn something from the way it was made.
That has always been part of the fun of Outworldz.
Build something.
Take it apart.
Learn how it works.
Change it.
And occasionally ride it around while it makes monster noises.

WE ARE BACK — SUBTERRANEA
You thought we were gone?
We’ve been hiding UNDERGROUND, charging the speakers, feeding the demons and arguing over who gets the better tunes.
This time we're bringing DJ Chocolate & Adrian Moon together for a proper subterranean takeover — and this one is all about NU DISCO.
Today 09/10/2026
DJ CHOCOLATE — 11AM → 1PM
ADRIAN MOON — 1PM → 3PM
Expect funky basslines, disco grooves, shimmering synths, dirty little edits, deep house flavours and enough groove to make even the furniture start dancing.
Basically...
disco went underground, got darker, got sexier and found a bassline.
Come for the music.
hop://grid.virtual-worlds.zone:8002/Mosaic/128/244/23
Stay because you’ve forgotten where the exit is.
NU DISCO • DEEP GROOVES • UNDERGROUND ENERGY

There is something wonderful about seeing Corazon del Mar come alive with visitors—people wandering the streets, exploring the shops, discovering little corners, and simply enjoying the atmosphere.
A region is built with prims, mesh, textures, and countless hours of work, but people are what give it life.
To everyone who has stopped by Corazon del Mar, whether you stayed for a few minutes or spent an evening exploring, thank you for being part of our world.
We hope you found something that made you smile, something worth remembering, and perhaps a reason to wander our streets again. 💗

Again about FAKE puritanity and avatar body measurement in OpenSIM
First:
There is NO ONE law in ANY country about avatars sizes and how to measure!
All laws is HOW YOU USE avatars and HOW YOU PRESENT this avatars!
Second:
Every think to "measure" avatars is with very big conflict with GDPR.
May read all GDPR or ask Google or AI to explain why:
Body measurements alone are generally classified as standard personal data under the GDPR, but they cross into sensitive biometric or health data categories when linked to persistent identification, health diagnostics, or photo-processing technology.
and last Third:
Using this or other avatars is my choice. You may ONLY control how i communicate with others!
Ask for my avatar size or ban me because my avatar is with XXX size is crime.
THIS IS LAWS!!!
Are you not remember?

We have released WolfVoice to GitHub this morning - this is a complete WebRTC setup for OpenSim, so you can switch off Vivox or add voice to any grid. It includes the server software and full setup instructions.
Note that we run the amazing OpenSim NGC, so it's designed to run with that, but it should run with any version of OpenSim. No more Vivox Droputs. https://github.com/wolfsoftwaresystemsltd/wolfvoice is the repository. Have fun!

THE OBJECT OF THE GAME / GAMEPLAY
🕵️ WHO’S THE IMPOSTOR?
Think you know the secret? Prove it.
At the start of the game, every player—except one—receives the same secret word. But there’s a twist: the Impostor doesn’t get the word. Instead, they receive a clue and must use it to blend in.
🎯 HOW TO PLAY
Each round, every player takes a turn giving a ONE-WORD response related to the secret word.
Players with the secret word: Use your word to come up with a clever response without making it too obvious.
The Impostor: Use the clue to figure out the secret word and give a response convincing enough to fool everyone.
Then comes the fun part…
👀 SPOT THE IMPOSTOR
Once everyone has answered, it’s time to review, discuss, and investigate. Analyze every response. Question every answer. Trust no one.
Finally, everyone votes for the player they believe is the Impostor.
🏆 WILL YOU CATCH THEM?
Can the players uncover the Impostor before they escape?
Or will the Impostor blend in, fool the group, and get away undetected?
The word is secret. The answers are suspicious. And one player is trying to fool you.
LET THE GAME BEGIN!

I am honored to share the news that Fred Beckhusen’s “Phaze” collection will be coming to the Weathered Woods Second Life Marketplace store.
Phaze was the Second Life region of Fred Beckhusen and Debbie Edwards, and the creations associated with Phaze represent their creativity, work, and history in Second Life. Full credit for these creations and their legacy belongs to Fred Beckhusen and Debbie Edwards.
Weathered Woods is honored to provide a new home where selected pieces from this remarkable archive can once again be made available to the Second Life community.
This will be a carefully curated collection. Fred will decide which creations from his archives he wishes to release, and those pieces will be added to Weathered Woods over time. Each Marketplace listing will preserve the appropriate creator attribution and acknowledge the history behind the work.
For me, having Fred’s work represented alongside my own creations at Weathered Woods is an extraordinary honor. I look forward to helping preserve this little piece of Second Life history and making Fred and Debbie’s creations available for others to discover and enjoy again.

https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/23062
Please Note! Platform Availability Notice
The Phaze Archive will be curated separately for Second Life and OpenSim. Items, versions, permissions, and availability may differ between platforms.
Each platform will feature content specifically selected and approved for release there. An item available on one platform should not be assumed to be available on the other.
All original creator credits and applicable licensing will be preserved.

A Note About the Phaze Archive
I would like to clarify the purpose of this project.
The Phaze Collection represents archived Second Life creations by Fred Beckhusen and Debbie Edwards. Our goal is preservation—to restore these precious assets, keep them from being lost to time, and allow selected creations to be enjoyed again in the environment for which they were originally created.
These are not simply files that can automatically be moved to OpenSim. Some contain Second Life-specific scripts and functionality that would need to be rewritten or adapted for OpenSim before they could work properly.
We are also not using Second Life Marketplace primarily as a money-making venture. It is the Second Life distribution portal available to us, making it a practical way to preserve and provide access to selected pieces from the archive.
OpenSim is separate. Fred has generously provided creations to the OpenSim community through Outworldz for well over a decade, and new resources continue to be added there. We do not distribute through Kitely Market. We distribute here:
https://outworldz.com/
Many of our OpenSim friends also maintain homes and avatars in Second Life. Those are the people this announcement was intended to reach. We are part of communities that overlap; enjoying one virtual world does not require us to stop enjoying another.
Most importantly, this project is about preservation, respect for the original creators, and ensuring that an important collection of virtual-world creativity survives to be enjoyed again. ❤️

Empathy and copyright.
I was appalled. Not too long ago, this person blocked me because I reported extensively on Anachron's illness here. This morning I posted that he has to go back to the hospital for chemotherapy today. And what does this woman do? Instead of leaving her well wishes as a comment, she makes her own post and even uses my picture for her graphic. First, she doesn't want to know anything about Anachron's condition, and then she publicly expresses her sympathy in this way. I was appalled. Furthermore, my images are now protected by copyright due to their elaborate production process, which goes beyond AI... but that's just a side note...
