Second Life Performance Night


This evening will feature three different artists/groups, which use the
online virtual world of Second Life as a medium for performance art.
Launched in 2003 by Linden Labs, Second Life (SL) hit widespread
popularity in 2006. In this 3D-rendered world, people across the world
share a networked space with unique avatars. With a completely
user-generated environment, SL enables a rich world of artistic
possibilities.

Alan Sondheim along with Foofwa d'Imobilite will present a performance
using the aesthetics of the Second Life environment to create an
experimental choreography; Lily & Honglei will present The Merry-go-around
a virtual installation addressing a series of environmental issues in
todays China; Second Front has discovered a virtual crypt within Second
Life and are inviting the public to witness its opening. Together, these
three short performances (12-15 minutes each) will sample some of the
contemporary trends in Second Life performance art.
The performances will be followed by a brief panel discussion and a
subsequent launch party of Avvie Road  the second DVD of Second Fronts
performance works.

People: Alan Sondheim (with Foofwa d'Imobilite), Lily & Honglei, Patrick
Lichty, Scott Kildall

and dancer,

this is how i envision slonnui sound, chimes and shrine,
gongs when  onset tones tend, tend to disappear,
open space before and after chimes, you
can walk around them, companion shrine moving, the
following voice, murmur, haunt, haunting less desire
more metal, wood, earth, fire, ground stone, or
in the air hovering, music turning mmusic,
encompassing, rattan, bridge of vine, liana, gorge
beyond, below, mountains lost here, what is honey
elsewhere, what, among memory-flowing peaks
