The Third Woman interactive film/game updates post-war themes found in director Carol Reed's 1949 The Third Man movie. Our new version continues exposing the pervasive theme of global threats to use bio-engineered terrorism in the 21st century. But the film is only one element in a more complex interactive event. Using smart phone technology, participants can interact with media by responding to questions derived from ethical, moral, and social perspectives embedded in the content of the film. Performers on stage, wearing fashions made with semacode (bar-code) patterns, form themselves into groups of abstract shapes simulating QR code images, demonstrating how to scan codes that link to The Third Woman media. Spilling off stage into the audience, they invite people to play the film-game. Participants playing the game become part of The Third Woman Interactive Performance.
