Alan Sondheim Screening at Millennium Film/Video June 20th (Saturday) 8 P.M. Admission $8 / $6 (for members) Information 212-673-0090 www.millenniumfilm.org cinema@millenniumfilm.org (from the announcement - ) "The word prolific always comes to mind when describing Alan Sondheim who has produced an unending, constantly changing array of media works, writings, and musical pieces, and has given innumerable workshops and lectures around the world. He has been a regular participant in the Personal Cinema Series." "ADVENTURES IN THE SIM TRADE: ACCIDENTAL ART AND PERFORMANCE IN SECOND LIFE. 'June 2008 through March 2009, I worked in an installation/performance space called Odyssey in the virtual world Second Life. I changed the environment almost daily, reflecting dynamic (moving, shuddering) complex spaces that were narratives in their own right, difficult to navigate, built on phenomenologies of being virtual real, really virtual. I will walk/work my way through these transformations, presenting videos and images of installations with Azure Carter), dance (with Foofwa d'Imobilite and Sandy Baldwin), and performance (with Sandy Baldwin). This work is unique within and without Second Life.' - A.S."
