Rezzable Productions and the Not Possible IRL group have joined forces to hold a large-scale two month extravaganza loosely themed around “The Garden of NPIRL Delights.”

This isn’t just about building. It’s about giving content creators free reign to further discover their creative might flex! and the opportunity to shape our virtual world in ways that… yea, you got it, would not be possible in Real Life.

Taking a page from that madman and artist, Hieronymus Bosch, Rezzable and NPIRL invite you to help us conceive and construct the NPIRL Garden of our collective dreams, spanning four sims to illustrate: the Underworld, Earth, and Paradise.

This is not about recreating Bosch’s Garden. It’s about imagining and crafting your own. If you were to journey into heaven or hell, what would this look like, and how might you make this as immersive as possible? Think Dante’s “Divine Comedy,” but with your own twist. And what are the earthlings doing that might force them into the depths of the underworld or paradise?

Don’t limit yourself to looking at this from a Biblical sense. Create your interpretation and own it. It could take place in any era: past, present or future. If you like, you can use it to cross-promote a current build, but this must be original work.

When

Building will commence April 27 and must be completed by May 14 – Tear down: June 23, 2008

Prim and height allocations

500 prims per person; possibly more if you collaborate on a team. There will be 3 layers with variations on the theme in effect -underworld, earth, paradise. We will terraform for you – up to 200m – but you must specify this in your proposal. Sky-builds are also acceptable.

Organization

The festival will be self-organized and set-up to encourage idea-exchanges, group collaborations and creative freedom for the development of original works.

In other words, play nice. We reserve to right to boot anyone out if we think they aren’t being ladies and gents.

How to participate:

Send us a general description of your build concept before April 26th (first come, first served) via email to: npirldelights@rezzable.com. Be sure to tell us what type of build you are undertaking (underworld, earth, paradise), if you will need terraforming, and how high you will need for the build to be. This will help us to determine where we will position your build for better overall balance.

Serious stuff:

1. Anything overtly offensive: hate/porn/obscenities/too gross will instantly disqualify you and your work will be returned without further ado
2. You must own the rights to all the materials you use
3. All rights to the creations remain the sole property of the artist
4. Photographs, video and any event materials depicting your work may be distributed in-world and on the web by Rezzable Productions and Not Possible IRL.
5. Artists may set items for purchase but no signage to that effect may be displayed
