Hello,
Here is some information on Company in Space's next project. The performance
uses two motion capture suits that are being connected via Internet for the
sharing of data. It is happening in Real Time with one live performer at
each location. The avatars perform within a shared virtual reality
environment between Florida and Melbourne. We believe that this performance
would be of great interest to the people on this list, and would be very
appreciative if you were able to post this info.
If you have any queries please do not hesitate to contact me at this email
address.
Many thanks.
