Another Language Performing Arts Company and the University of Utah
Center for High Performance Computing presents our fourth InterPlay
performance /Dancing on the Banks of Packet Creek/, directed by Jimmy
Miklavcic, on March 31 - April 2, 2006 at 19:00 MST (-7:00 UTC) on
Friday and Saturday and 16:00 MDT (-6:00 UTC) on Sunday. InterPlay is a
multimedia, multi-artist, telematic, and collaborative art form that is
performed and transmitted over Internet 2 utilizing Access Grid
technology. Invited national and international institutions, artists,
scientists and technologists collaborate and participate with Another
Language in this InterPlay form.
The performance can be viewed by our remote audience through the Access
Grid in the Theater Venue of the ArtGrid Venue Server at
https:/agvs.chpc.utah.edu/Venues/default. Please enter the Theater one
half hour prior to the performance with the Video Consumer Service and
the Audio Service only. Your audio must be muted and your site must not
send video. Others can view the performance through QuickTime at
http://www.anotherlanguage.org/interplay/packetcreek. The live QuickTime
stream will be active fifteen minutes before the performance. (Note: The
QuickTime audience will only see the main video mix.)
/Dancing on the Banks of Packet Creek/ is an exploration into the
tenuous devotion that we have towards the inundating wave of digital
information and non-experiential knowledge. Packet Creek depicts the
Internet with its flow of disassembled pieces of data that course
throughout the world like schools of spawning salmon. Dancing on the
Banks is our ritualistic gyrations that we express as we create,
disseminate, search, and acquire this electronic epistemological knowledge.
Using the metaphor of fluid motion and dynamics we will portray the
immense amount of this non-experiential knowledge and the influence that
it has on us. The expansive range between truth and fiction or frivolity
and importance are just some creative investigations and artistic
expressions that are explored through music, dance, video, computer
graphics and remote motion capture MIDI control.
Invited national and international institutions, artists, scientists and
technologists collaborate and participate with Another Language in the
InterPlay form. "Dancing on the Banks of Packet Creek" will be an
exciting blend of images and sounds using the Access Grid Video
Conferencing Technology into a Real-time Collaborative Surrealistic
Cinematic Performance. Local live performers will be joined in this
performance by ArtGrid participants from University of Alaska Fairbanks
and the Arctic Region Supercomputing Center, Boston University,
University of Maryland, Purdue University and the Envision Center for
Data Perceptualization, and Ryerson University, Toronto, Ontario Canada.
As an Internet2 member connected to the Abilene Network, the University
of Utah provides the network infrastructure and computing facilities
that make the InterPlay process possible.
