Hi Helen Just looking at these brilliant projects has made me think.
Last year I did an interactive performance project called "Buddy Rivers" http://davemiller.org/projects/buddy_rivers/leroy/index.php It was a live show, taking place in a gallery, projected onto a wall. You could interact in the gallery and simultaneously online. My story idea was that he's an old comedian making a comeback. He does his comedy show (which is awful) and you can heckle him online. Based on the number of heckles he receives, he gets increasingly upset until finally he walks off the stage. His speech and the audience heckling was generated live by text to speech synthesis on the server. His speech was formed from mashups of web searches (on issues local to the gallery) and RSS joke feeds. It's just that after the one show I did, I was too busy to take this project further, and it's sort of been on ice ever since. I wonder if I could develop the project as part of your Upstage projects, or maybe some bits of it could be recycled somehow? Anyway, just a thought, and best wishes for 2010 cheers, dave 2009/12/28 helen varley jamieson <[email protected]>: > The live online performance "The Dish" will be performed at the opening > of the NEW TECHNOLOGIES 09 exhibition at the Gallery of Contemporary > Art, Pančevo, Serbia, at 7.30pm (local time) on 29 December; this > equates to 7.30am on 30 December in New Zealand (find your local time > here: http://tinyurl.com/yzemdcz). > > There will be a live link to the stage at http://www.upstage.org.nz > about half an hour before the performance starts. > > "The Dish" is created and performed by Katarina Djordjevic Urosevic & > Jelena Lalic, and was first performed as part of the 090909 UpStage > Festival on 9 September 2009.
