InterPlay: Intransitive Senses - April 19, 2003
"InterPlay: Intransitive Senses" is a multimedia, multi-artist performance transmitted over Internet 2, experienced both live and on the Internet. This is Another Language's first performance of this type. "InterPlay: Intransitive Senses", premiered on April 19, 2003 at University of Utah Intermountain Network & Scientific Computation Center Auditorium. It featured performances by Alex Caldiero, Harold Carr, Flavia Cervino-Wood, Beth Miklavcic, Hanelle Miklavcic and was directed by Jimmy Miklavcic. Performance Description The four performance events were simultaneously captured, mixed, digitized, encoded and streamed onto the network. The director manipulated each video stream to appear in any of four video playback windows similar to Windows Media Player or Apple's QuickTime Player. |

This created a work that took four individual stories and wove them into a multi layered distributed tapestry. Each artist had his/her thought process that lead to his/her artistic performance. The director moved that into another level by taking those performances and incorporated them into his own thought and creative process. There were two types of viewers, local audiences experiencing the live event and remote audiences watching the four video streams either projected on a large screen in an auditorium setting or on a personal computer. The audience discovered a unique view of the diverse artistic culture that thrives in Utah. Another Language believes that creating more unique, artistic opportunities, like InterPlay: Intransitive Senses, attracts and develops a new audience.
Internet 2 Internet 2 (I2) is a research network parallel to our current Internet, connecting all the major universities, colleges and research institutions throughout the United States, Asia, Australia and Europe. No commercial network traffic is routed through this network making it the perfect high-speed infrastructure for video/audio transmission. Access GridA new technology for multimedia communications, called the Access Grid Node, has been established by Argonne National Labs to assist researchers in collaborations with colleagues in other areas of the world. The University of Utah's Center for High Performance Computing has implemented an Access Grid system. Another Language has been given the opportunity to use this technology to create new artistic works and eventually collaborate with other artists around the world. |
