Interview: Igor Ballyhoo
I caught Igor Ballyhoo online and he came over to Nordan Art for an impromptu brief interview. I know he is very busy both in Second Life and Real Life at the moment, so I felt very fortunate to get an interview on the spur of the moment. Igor is the creator of the Nordan Art build.

Flora Nordenskiold: What is in your opinion the magical quality of Second Life that keeps us com-ing back?
Igor Ballyhoo: Long legs, great looking tits, ease of creation and surprise when ppl like shit I build.
Flora Nordenskiold: You are one of my absolute fa-vorite artist in Second Life, its no secret. What in-spires you to create art?
Igor Ballyhoo: Hmmmm… dunno…ok, first of all, you keep calling it art, I never clame it to be. I talk through my works. I leave marks around for ppl who can read them. One day I see something on street and it provoke me to make some work, other day I dream, again sometimes someone from this world say one word and it inspire whole new build. U know Van Gogh sunflowers? Well, he wanted to deco-rate one of his rooms with flowers when his friend Gauguin was supposed to visit him… so he painted sunflowers! So much about inspiration.
Flora Nordenskiold: What are your thoughts on the Second Life art community?
Igor Ballyhoo: It sucks big time, most of shit around that ppl call art cant be called art by any definition. As Bryn once said, art in sl is simply RPG – ppl play roles of artists coz they have nothing better to do.
Flora Nordenskiold: You have been in Second Life for a while, since 2007. What are your thoughts on art and creativity in Second Life? And are things dif-ferent now, in 2011, than they were in 2007?
Igor Ballyhoo: Things are better. Some ppl who were just on beginning of creation become brilliant at it, unfortunately, I could count them on fingers of one hand. This hand full of dreamers are worth coming
regularly to sl for.
Flora Nordenskiold: You have been doing some commercial work lately. What was that like?
Igor Ballyhoo: Commercial work was big pain in ass. I didnt enjoy it much, but I did enjoy taking ppls money for it. I never had any money in sl, now I am filthy rich.
Flora Nordenskiold: Thank you, Igor!
