patrick (and list) do keep us posted about the art panels for the conf in chicago - sounds good. in venice i also finally met eva and franco mattes from 01001...org and was renewed with interest in their re-enactment of other real space artworks in the environment of second life - such as joseph beuys' seven thousand oaks project. http://0100101110101101.org/home/ performances/performance-beuys.html would you see these 'synthetic performances' as they call them (or reiterations as you call them?) as 'native works'? in just a technical or also theoretical sense? what about reiterations of exhibitions/events? when live sound becomes a feature of second life (as i understand it will) then how mad would it be to have andy warhol on the roof of the factory letting go of the silver helium balloons he made as part of the EAT project, along with the archive recording of his voice expressing his reaction at the time? or would that make the 'reiteration' (or indeed impersonation) somehow not so native? random thoughts on a rainy afternoon, sarah On 14 Jun 2007, at 15:00, Patrick Lichty wrote: > I'm (tentatively) arranging a couple contemporary art panels at the > International Second Life Community Conference in Chicago this > August.
