We invite you to THE NOWHERE DANCE
A performance at Alan Sondheim's Second Life exhibition "The Accidental
Artist"
Alan Sondheim: "We'll teleport people into an installation which has been
constructed over a period of eight months. It represents nothing of
architecture, fantasy, or surrealism; it's a space unlike anything in the real
world. It's difficult to move through, a field of alien processes which has a
life of its own. Sandy Baldwin and I will dance through and around it - on the
ground, in the air, and on the ocean floor. Part of the dance will be based on
learning to move around; part will be based on adding to the clutter."

on the project b e a m - m e - up:
Our understanding of space is changing for generations. In the digital age we
use terms like Cyberspace, Globalization and World Wide Web, even though we
have hardly understood the old electro-spaces like power supply systems,
telephone and broadcasting. By means of audio-visual transportation we conquer
new spaces, which present themselves as both picture space and space of action,
place of signs and of real presences.
With the online project beam me up we invite artists and authors from different
countries to concern themselves with space concepts in the form of art
contributions and essays.
