ADRIFT performance–Saturday, March 28th at 3pm est.
(http://www.turbulence.org/Adrift) or (http://www.nirvanet.fr/adrift/)

ADRIFT is a supurb example of the latest in Telecommunication Art. An
evolving Internet performance event, it is streamed live from multiple
locations to audiences on the Internet and in separate geographical
locations.

The work of the three New York City artists: composer Jesse Gilbert;
writer, composer Helen Thorington; and architect Marek Walczak, ADRIFT
involves the interplay of three environments–text, sound, and vrml or
3-D graphics.

The content focus of the work is a harbor, a city and the human body. As
the three artists and their computers pass information back and forth in
real time, an interaction between the senses, and between the
geographies, scales, and narratives represented in the work is created.
The fluid perceptions and the multiple intersecting journeys they
suggest lie at the heart of this networked performance.

Saturday's performance will include ParkBench artists Nina Sobell and
Emily Hartzell, who will stream video into the 3-D graphic space using
programming developed especially for the ADRIFT project. Also performing
on Saturday will be musician/composer Scott Rosenberg.
