eyebeam / open studios / winter 2011 :: resident alan sondheim :: azure carter :: mark skwarek This was a collaboration organized by eyebeam resident alan sondheim for the winter 2011 open studios. The work deals with pain, loss, and wounded avatars. The work combines alan's virtual world [second life], the physical world [alan and azure playing and performing], and the virtual world and physical became one with augmented reality by mark skwarek. All three components attempt to react to each other in realtime.
