"Dislocative Sculpture"
Performative event in Second Life, Goethe Institut
By Tamiko Thiel and the United|Dislokations|Kartell
Cyberspace: The Final Frontier. Since 1994 with the advent of the World
Wide Web, online virtual 3D worlds have promised us endless freedom to
be and do and create whatever we want, free of all restrictions. The
most well-known of these, Second Life, promises us a newer and better
virtual life, where we can live out our fantasies of who we want to be
and what we want to do. As with all gated communities, however,
membership comes with a stern set of rules regulating what can and
cannot be done where and when and by whom.
In the performative event "Dislocative Sculpture" Goethe-Institut Second
Life Artist in Residence Tamiko Thiel and the
United|Dislokations|Kartell (U|D|K) will bend the unique physics of
building in Second Life to create a "dislocative sculpture."
