A random idea I had, that clearly needs doing...

"Wiki Build", in a commandeered plot next to the Pirate Ship in Burning Life 1.

RULES:

1. Anyone and everyone add and edit stuff!
2. Every single prim you add or edit must be set to allow anyone to move and copy, and set for sale for $0, next owner can modify, copy, resell/ give away. “Buy” stuff you want to edit.
3. Let’s see what SL builds!

a concentration of SLers imaginations transferred into a temporary build. a microcosmic dynamo.

i'll definitely try to make my way there at some point.

I found this rogue build at Burning Life 1 (213,160). It is part of a tryptich (exactly 1/3 to be precise).

For potential renegade builders I noticed it was the only thing on parcel "Burning Life 07" which still has 1746 prims available.

For potential critics, not only is it derivative and cliché, it is also neither technically adept, nor scripted. But if you must critique, here are some thoughts by others that you might wish to make use of:
From: Pablo Picasso
By amusing myself with all these games, all this nonsense, all these picture puzzles, I became famous... I am only a public entertainer who has understood his time.
From: Aristotle
All art is concerned with coming into being... for art is concerned neither with things that are, or come into being by necessity, nor with things that do so in accordance with nature.
From: Dr. Seuss
I like nonsense; it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities.
From: John Irving
It is hard work and great art to make life not so serious.

I love the wiki! Great idea! I made a giant yo-yo. It's the first thing I've ever built in SL, so go easy on me. :) Someone should add a string (I have no idea how to do that), and some sidecap art. It's possible someone already has, I haven't checked it today. Here's the original:
