Webbed Feats
USA
That's far,
like far out, cool, and perhaps, going far.
The Webbed Feats (great name) Web site is new, just
online -- and far. Here you will find detailed plans for
their inaugural event, Bytes of Bryant Park, a multimedia
and multi-dimensional art performance to take place in New
York City and on the Web on September 17, 1997.
"What makes this performance different is you --
the global audience. Your input over the course of the next
12 weeks will shape, form and determine the outcome of the
performances."
Bytes of Bryant Park is the first of a series of real and
cyberspace art performances directed by artist and choreographer
Stephan Koplowitz.
Key to this ambitious venture is participation by a Web audience,
whose input will become an integral part of a six-hour long
performance in the park behind New York City's historic Public
Library building. The live event will be simultaneously
cybercast on the Web.
Koplowitz is taking a real chance with all of this as there are lots
of unknown variables and factors that might affect his well laid plans.
You have to admire his willingness to try, and even if the performance
is only half as successful as the care and detail of the Web site, this
project might be one of the most exciting and interesting A&T events
of the year. Keep an eye on this one!
"...on September 17th, under the artistic direction of
Stephan Koplowitz in cooperation with the Bryant Park
Restoration Corporation, the whole world will be able
to see it for free as it is presented live in the park and
cybercast from [Webbed Feats'] site. The performance
will take place at noon and continue until 6 pm
[ET]."
You can participate! Send your visual, literary, and audio

Here is a creative project
for mind, body, and soul. An opportunity for all creative souls to
participate, collaborate, share, and enjoy. This is truly the best
the Web has to offer -- a generous spirit of shared creativity.
Have fun with it... and go far!
In coming weeks, news and updates on the progress of this
exciting project. Stay tuned...
