Eclipse; 24/7 of the Best Second Life has to Offer- Lanai Jarrico Reporting…
Established in September 2014, Eclipse
is an out of this world club. Created by DJ Dargo (Kardargo Amdamczyk) and Dy
Courier, it offer Second Life residents an electrifying and high energy
experience. The décor is very modern sci fi chic with geometric shapes that lay
down the foundation and dance floor. Blue and white lights shine down creating
an eclipse ambience as the pulsing sounds of dance music keeps the crowd moving.
Interview with
DJ Dargo
Lanai: I’m curious to know, how did you discover
Second Life?
DJ Dargo: The first avatar I
created was just after Second Life started, walked around a bit on an empty
region I closed the viewer and forgot about it. About 8 years ago, I watched a
documentary with professor Michio Kaku, he talked about Second Life and my
curiosity about this virtual world was reignited. I created a new avatar that
day and never left.
Lanai: Giving Second Life another shot seems to have
paid off for you. What do you like the most about this virtual world?
DJ Dargo: The people, the
limitless imagination and creativity expressed in SL.
Lanai: I would have to agree with those reasons. The
people and creativity is what makes Second Life and the limitless imagination
allows the landscape to change with new ideas. What inspired you to create
Eclipse and when was it established?
DJ Dargo: I was traveling
different clubs to dj for a few years. I noticed one after another club was closing. I have been thinking about creating a club for
several years and even build some, then, a year ago I fell seriously ill, when
I got better I thought this was the time to start my own club. Luckily I found
Jenny Chayoo to stand beside me as COO. She is an indispensable asset to the
club and made most of this happen, and Dy who finally kicked me into really
take the step to do this.
Lanai: I think a successful club needs a strong
support system. I sounds like you have that. Who are the other people that are
part of your management staff and what are their roles?
DJ Dargo: well first off COO
Jenny Chayoo, she is the best a club can wish for, she put so much effort in
the club pulling Hosts and DJ’s together, then there is DJ manager zaffin &
Relax, they accept new dj’s and made the schedule what it is today. Also, we recently added Robina Ewing and
SkyNet to the dj management team.
Host managers, Nena, Coffee
lavender (issie), Issie deluxe (isees) Renee Hernandoz take care of the hosts,
they train new hosts. I like to stress that hosts are often unappreciated, but
they are extremely important to the DJ’s and club, they send out a load of
notices, have many friends they invite and they keep the public entertained.
Hosts are often busier than the DJ’s.
Lanai: I agree, Hosts and DJs together really play an
important role. They creating a club’s energy and atmosphere. Who are the DJs
that provide entertainment?
DJ Dargo: There are currently
over 40 DJ’s that joined the team and 13 cover DJ’s. There are too many to name
but they are all equally important to the team and together with the hosts make
the place to what it is.
Lanai: Wow, that is a large pool of DJs and hosts! How
would you describe the style and genre of music played at Eclipse?
DJ Dargo: The style differs very
much, from deep house to hard style, and everything in between. As a club we would not like to pin ourselves
down to a single genre, I myself spin Trance, but any properly mixed genre is
welcome. You could say that the style is
Electronic Dance Music, but that does not fully cover the different styles the
DJ’s play.
Lanai: Variety is good because it provides something
for everyone. Do you have contests and special events?
DJ Dargo: We don’t do contests, we
have seen this at other clubs and you only get a public that want to make some
lindens, after a contest is over you never see them again. That is not the crowd we like to attract, and
honestly it is a form of gaming the traffic system. We are thinking about
events but have not set any dates yet. The
usual Halloween night, Christmas party are coming up, we cannot go into details
for further events yet as they are not scheduled. We would also like to keep our ideas for
ourselves just for now.. But they are coming.. we have a list!
Lanai: You make a great point about how contest can
attract one time visitors only their for the lindens. You want a regular crowd. Good thinking. So, what separates Eclipse from other clubs
in Second Life?
DJ Dargo: Oh probably nothing, we
started it to stay, not to disappear in a month and leave all those that put time
and energy into it hanging. We would like it to run 24/7 but that’s hard to
establish. We would also like it to be
friendly towards anyone, there are limits but a little common sense will get
you a long way.
Lanai: It sounds like dedication is what separates you
from others. Are you currently hiring staff?
DJ Dargo: We are always looking
for hosts and mixing DJ’s if you like to join the team you can fill in our
online app form and we will contact you a.s.a.p. http://bit.ly/ECLIPSE_APP_FORM
Lanai: Do you have any upcoming events or a calendar
where visitors can see what is going on daily?
DJ Dargo: all our scheduled Hosts
& DJ’s can be found on our Google spreadsheet : http://bit.ly/ECLIPSE_Schedule
Coming events will be announced
in the group and on the ECLIPSE FB Community page
Lanai: Is there anything else you would like to share
with our readers about Eclipse?
DJ Dargo: I would like to say
that this club is not a one man dream, it’s the dream of many people, I could
never do this alone, a large team of hosts, DJ’s and managers build a club,
they make it a success, not me, I’m just a tiny wheel in the machine.

Feed a Smile News- About Feed a Smile and Lavender Field in Second Life
About
Lavender Field and the impact it makes
Lavender Field hosts Live music events, art shows and a
place to come and meet people and relax .The special thing that makes a
difference at the Lavender Field is that it is purely a charity sim. It exists
in order to feed over 400 poverty stricken children living in the slums of
Nakuru, Kenya on a daily basis with the proceeds and donations. 100 Linden pays for a warm meal for a child, additional donations provide health care,
education and school supplies for these children in need. The entire sim - and
everything on it has been donated.
Entertainment
Lavender Field has some of SL's finest musicians
performing on a charity basis and many of SL's leading venues and clubs
organize Feed a Smile events. Many venues and shops have Feed a Smile donation boards
set up in order to support the cause.
Donations
Donations can be viewed on the donation site, which has
been set up by G&N Quality Design: http://goo.gl/ceuy4
Talented
Supporters
Names like Marky Helstein, Russell Eponym, Lisa Brune,
Shannon Oherlihy, Xander Nichting, Tamra Sands, FunkyFreddy, Voodoo Shilton,
James Coracheo, Aminius, Dragonfly, TwinGhost, Samm Qendra, Thera D, Anek
Fuchs, Viviana Houston, Seamore Wildehart , TwoStep Spiritweaver, Bat Masters -
and many, many more super talents are constantly on the event boards at the
Lavender Field.
What
is Feed a Smile?
Feed a Smile is a project that is a real world registered
non-profit organization - Live and Learn in Kenya Int'l. (LLK Int'l) For more
information visit www.llk-selb.de
Who
brought it to Second Life?
Brique Topaz -
(Zeiner) is the RL Chairwoman of the organization in Kenya and in Germany.
What is Leben und Lernen in Kenia?
LLK Int’l is in its 13th year and
has sent hundreds of children to school. That is what LLK Int'l is all about -
providing needy children with an education so that they can find their way out
of the vicious circle of poverty.
Our motto
'Education is the
key to the future'.
This explains exactly what is important. We help the
children find a way to be all that they can be - and we provide everything
necessary for them to go to school -
including daily warm meals, medical and dental care, school materials,
uniforms, fees, extracurricular activities, etc.
We also
have a sponsorship program
Many SL residents
have decided to sponsor one of our 400 LLK Int'l children in RL. A sponsor provides everything that a child
needs to go to school for only US$30 per month. The child writes letters to the
sponsor, send photos and report cards to the sponsor as well.
Donation
impact from Second Life
The donations from Second Life provide about 1/3 of the
daily meals for the children. We are able to take in between US$ 1000 - to 1700
monthly - depending on the amount of events and the performers.
4th
Anniversary in Second Life
Feed a Smile celebrated its 3rd anniversary in Second
Life on July 13th. Lavender Field is hosting other events on September 27th
& 30th.
Goal
Our goal is to become a household name in Second Life - We want to grow and become a name that people
know and trust. It would be a huge help if an ever-growing number of venue
owners and store owners decide to support Feed a Smile by having donation
boards set up and/or having fund-raising events. Another goal is to have more
direct support from Linden Lab. We must pay large transfer fees - and although
the sim rent is being donated - those funds could be used to feed the children
if LL were to donate a sim to Feed a Smile for example.
Getting
Useful Information
Brique Topaz will provide all necessary information,
photos and promotional materials to the venue owners for Feed a Smile events.
Take
part in this fundraiser
Brique Topaz is always looking for musicians, performers,
and artists and we have shops for rent . The rent money goes solely to feed the
children. It is also possible to donated objects - especially clothing - at our
charity shop - all proceeds go towards the children.
Next
Big Events are September 27th and September 30th at
Lavender Field.
These events will
help raise funds to build a school and feed children in Kenya.
If you need any other information, contact Brique Topaz.
