Second Life and Ibiza
Ibiza is a traveler’s paradise, with a sumptuous combination of fantastic beaches and amazingly lively nightlife. Guests here are treated to the relaxed pace that only island living can offer, along with a gorgeous portion of contemporary Spanish style, to make life sweet. It is a magnetic spot for travelers of all walks of life, from the young and hip backpacker set, to the rich and famous looking for the next great night at a brilliant new club. It is also home to some of the regions finest restaurants and best hotels. Ibiza is a splendid array of all of the best things in life, and our lodgings are selected based on their excellence in providing old-fashioned hospitality in an extremely lush contemporary setting.
The lures of Ibiza are many, from the rich and fascinating history of the island, to the sweet siren’s call of the Mediterranean Sea. It is most famous these days for the nightclubs, and celebrities flock here to engage with the musical stylings of some of the world’s hottest djs. The revolution in techno music has never been more active, and even the youngest djs are becoming extremely deft in bringing new technological innovations to the dance floor. There are many good reasons for this, and the first is the relatively easy access to all sorts of technologies that would have been cost-prohibitive just a few years ago. There are also plenty of cultural permissions that make it a very positive social experience, both for the one learning to dj and for all of her friends.
The art of dj’ing is becoming so ubiquitous, in fact, that it’s possible to learn how to do it in the virtual realm. Second Life, the virtual identity game that has become a simulacrum for a real life, has ways to become a dj in the cyber realm. It takes a lot of software, and a solid grasp of both dj and computer technologies, but it’s possible to start here and begin learning in another realm before hitting the actual dance floors. Of course, to make everything even more ironic than it already is, there’s even a club in Second Life named for Ibiza’s Space where a virtual dj competition takes place. At four a.m., when you find yourself dancing and wondering if the sun is up yet, it might be difficult to tell the difference.
