Maloe’s SL photography is truly beautiful and a gem in its own right.
Her art has been showcased in many galleries already. We are really honored to have her be the very first exhibitor to display their work at ARTSVILLE.”

Takayuki Noami’s self-produced electroacoustic music project, which advocates noise classical music. After releasing his first album ‘Foresta’ in 2013, he has been working mainly in the Tokyo metropolitan area and in the virtual space ‘Second Life’. Since 2015, he has produced the sound installation ‘STRUKTURO’ in Second Life.
In 2016, he participated in Senju LAB #1, a screening of his video works organized by composer Akira Senju, with video director Kenji Agata. In March 2019, the music video ‘Dancing Fly in My Head’ (directed by Kenji Agata) was released with the cooperation of Akira Senju’s office, Tokyo University of the Arts COI and YAMAHA.
In October 2020, his music video “Soft Strings” (directed by Takayuki Noami) won the Best Music Video Director Award at the International Film Festival “1st Monthly Film Festival” (Serbia).
Influenced by the ideas of Eric Satie and John Cage, Tia Rungray’s music is primarily instrumental, using ambient sounds, piano, and even noise. He creates his own worldview with a unique style that incorporates ambient, post-classical and noise music. The fusion of sophisticated piano and violent and ferocious noise depicts the inner world of human beings, and the rough and raw live performance where stillness and motion coexist is not only soothing to the audience, but also makes them feel even madness.
His first nationally distributed album ‘MindgEsso’ was released on 29 April 2018 on the independent label Cat&Bonito. It has led composer Akira Senju to say “I’ve heard the air of the future”. On 27 July 2020, he released an album with Yorihisa Taura titled ‘Juvenile’ on the independent label ‘Tannukineiri Records’. The new album “STRUKTURO” was released on 12 February 2021.

The song “Cremation” was first performed by Tia Rungray at a live concert to celebrate the release of “MindgEsso” in June 2018, and has since undergone a number of live arrangements. Now it’s time to release it as a single version. With a mainly post-classical approach, Tia Rungray has matured his sound by applying the techniques he tried on “Strukturo”, released in February 2021.
“NodosArt”, a creative art and design label has been established by Nodome Morgenröte after a long dark phase in her personal artistic development.
She worked for a number of years as a product photographer and designed everything from print media to digital media to create a complete corporate identity.
The downside to this intensive learning stage was that she lost the freedom of her own art because of a diligent commitment to her design job.
In 2019 she has found her path back to the roots of her real emotional and free art and will go on evolving through digital paintings, photos, and will perhaps develop her expression with charcoal, ink, aquarell/watercolor and other expressive mediums as the inspiration or requests take her!
Nodomé Morgenröte started her art experience as a teenager when she wrote a small blog. Because she could never find the right pictures to embody her writing and lyrics. So she grasped a small camera and started to shoot her own images.
Since then she has been unstoppable.
Photography courses and working groups followed. She was a part of a progressive analog photography working group, a studio photography group, some PC groups where she designed simple html websites.
Nodomé styled her own magazine layout and content adding to her media and business knowledge while working as an intern with some wonderful photographers, designers and webdesigners. So she has taken many more and different steps including drawing courses and has even won some, as yet, minor art prizes.
But the best tutor is life, she says.
With the professional knowledge of a designer and the wildly crazy mind of an artist she will choose the right tool for an breathtaking, individual and original painting, exclusive to your floor!
So if you have a naked wall and want to smile every day, grab an apple in front of her store,
since Feb. 2021 “Spiralo” is a virtual cultural complex produced by the noise-classical music project ‘Tia Rungray’. The name “Spiralo” means “spiral” in Esperanto, and the name comes from the fact that the floors are arranged in a spiral pattern, inspired by the image of everyday life and art blending together in virtual life.
The way Second Life residents use images is fascinating, and I will never cease to be amazed at the creativity they display every day by posting their pictures on Flickr. It does not matter whether the image is edited: the creativity and technical ability that these artists demonstrate is worthy of interest even for those who do not know Second Life.
An example of this graphic skill is undoubted. asmodeux, who creates artistic images using shots taken from Second Life. These are compositions; therefore, images are edited to satisfy a specific communicative purpose. The titles of the creations, always in Latin, help understand the proposed art’s meaning.
The artist has received many comments of appreciation, which the VIRTUALITY blog joins with pleasure.
Il modo in cui i residenti di Second Life usano le immagini è affascinante e non finirò mai di stupirmi della creatività che dimostrano ogni giorno pubblicando le loro immagini su Flickr. Non ha importanza che l’immagine sia editata o meno: la creatività e capacità tecnica che questi artisti dimostrano è degna di interesse anche per coloro che non conoscono Second Life.
Un esempio di questa abilità grafica è senz’altro .asmodeux che realizza immagini artistiche usando scatti tratti da Second Life. Si tratta di composizioni, quindi di immagini editate per soddisfare uno specifico fine comunicativo. I titoli delle creazioni, sempre in latino, aiutano nel comprendere il senso dell’arte proposta.
L’artista ha ricevuto molti commenti di apprezzamento a cui VIRTUALITY blog si unisce con piacere.
