    hey there listees,

    I thought this might appeal to a number of you out there. A number of my
    friends are participating/performing and I think there are some great ideas
    here, so figured I'd pass it along. Enjoy!

    >a weekend event of ambient electronic and live theatre from parallel
    >performance spaces in Toronto (Canada), Moss
    >(Norway) and Amsterdam (the Netherlands) joined through the internet

    >Momentum is a weekend of ambient theatre and live art activities in a
    >social setting. Participating artists work with analog
    >and digital video mixing, sound, media based and sculpture installation,
    >net.art and live performance. Three performance
    >spaces (in Norway, Canada and the Netherlands) are joined, the Internet
    >is used as a platform for exchange.
    >
    >The performance space in Toronto is a social space and lab, designed to
    >facilitate a two day dialogue between space,
    >sound, image, live and tele-presence. It is divided into work/play
    >stations with lounge "islands", placed in between. This
    >allows the visitor to wander through these spaces, sit, relax and even
    >be given the opportunity to participate in the event as
    >a performer.
    >
    >Technical misunderstandings, and breakdowns will be handled by the
    >emergency crew, easily identified by their cheerful
    >orange vests and hats.
    >First 50 people through the door each day get a free watch.
    >
    >Alternatively, mediated viewing and participation can be done from
    >anywhere with an internet connection. Follow the
    >homepage http://www.liveart.org for more details.
