“256² “
256² from Aram Bartholl on Vimeo.
“256²” is a piece which I performed mid May 2007. Finally I found time to reedit the video documentation of this urban intervention.
Pics and more text at the project page.
In the movie I am marking with chalk the first sim (Second Life land unit, 1 simulator = 256m²) of NewBerlin at Berlin Alexanderplatz. The famous TV tower of Alexanderplatz is right in the middle of the virtual representation of Berlin which Tobias Neisecke and Jan Northoff started in Second Life a year ago. Today NewBerlin has at least 8 sims and is still growing.
New Project: “256²”
The solution to the 16 meter chalk line is a new piece called “256²”. Although it didn’t stop raining yesterday noon I used almost 64 pieces of chalk to mark the outline of the Second Life Sim NewBerlin (Teleport) around Alexanderplatz Berlin real life. It was a lot of fun. Check out more pics and a detailed description on the projects page here.
