LEA 26

HERITAGE - Part I: VESTIGES: Created by Gem Preiz
"Vestiges" is an evocation of these witnesses of Past. It is designed as a quest and is inspired by stories of fearless adventurers who explore archeological sites or forsaken strongholds to find there the treasures of disappeared civilisations.
What shall we bequeath to our successors? What future do we prepare for them? The question becomes more and more a concern, after the conference of Paris on the climate, and in the first years of a 21st century which as the formers, begins with deadly confrontations.
Listening to the accompanying music is recommended.

Sound Mind: Created by bill473
"There are numerous areas with different examples of how sound can be used in SL.  Each area has a sign with a notecard describing how environmental sounds or other sounds have been employed.

In the freebies building on your right you'll find "How-To" packs, each containing a different sound script with instructions on how it's used.  All are free.  There are also other freebies there, so be sure to stop in and pick up the script packs and other freebies!

Study the techniques shown, use the freebie scripts and make your own soundscape!"
