My mad moves in Second Life (videos)

Posted on May 17, 2006 by

Buttdance2
People were asking me about what kinds of dancing goes on in Second Life.  I uploaded a couple of quicktime videos of me doing some new steps I acquired, including the "butt dance," the "flapper," the "kata" (my favorite) and the "kick dance" (large-ish file.)  Footage taken at the "Baby Dolls" club in virtual Amsterdam.  I thought the roller skates were a nice touch.

I was on wifi on my iBook, so frame rates were pretty bad.  But you get the idea.

You can compare these moves with me dancing in the real world.
