As I, your humble watcher, was exploring the many and myriad masses of art that grace our small land, I was able to make a contact out of my IM list and compel him to come down and look. I was enjoying Khanaar Ingmann’s company and thoughtfully looking at a choice (as if there is bad art in there, I dont think so) bit of creativity, and it was then that I started hearing a rumbling car engine. This understandably piqued my interest, and I dismissed it to a soundbyte he was playing in my ear.
Oh to be so Naive again.
Ingmann, unknowingly to me, was a Second Life car dealer, and never travelled without his entire compliment of automobiles.
He had produced a Pontiac Firebird, of mid 1980’s vintage.
Needless to say, my beginners mind was not prepared for the uncanny sight of a random musclecar appearing out of nowhere. This quickly gave way to my common sense of practicality, and I took a seat. He drove us around the tower, and gave me the most enjoyable tour of the exhibit. As my mind was thinking this was impossible to top, He topped it.
He dropped a truck down, and one with a hover conversion kit ta boot. as you can see we ventured into a globe piece and hovered there. pondering the world. One creation, inside another, inside another. This was where I thought we would stop, again, Khanaar was the showman, and I his audience.
He takes the stage with his Monster Truck creation, and treats the stage as a stage, I watch my own personal Monster Truck ralley. Thinking the show is over I grow bored, but his finale, was indeed larger than life.
Yes so large I blog 2 photos. He makes that fly as well.
I ask him to take me back to his place where we talk about his cars. “Here are 2 I had in real life” ,he says taking me to two rust speckled trucks. I can tell he has nothing but love and good memories of them. He later tells me about his choices of vehicles, and the lack of exotics. “I prefer common cars, the ones you see on the road everyday”
I respond, “Real cars?”.
“Yes” ,is his eloquent reply.
Thank You Khanaar!
