A moving performance: ZeroG Skydancers

Having now read the notecard which is provided on the platform about new west art show, I believe I may have gatecrashed the 8 o'clock performance of the ZeroG skydancers, as I certainly hadn't made reservations. Who knew I would be in SL at the eye-popping time of 4am?

I'm glad that I was, and that I read about the three one-of-a-kind performances of the ZeroG Skydancers. I had a bit of trouble getting there, being bounced four or five times to an adjacent sim before I successfully reached the platform high in the sky which is where the performance took place.

An illuminated round seating plan was provided for the audience. We were instructed to force midnight and to wait for an instruction to cue our music, ready for the only Hyperformalist dance company in either world.

The stage was DanCoyote Antonelli's massive "interactive prim cloud" hyperformalist sculpture entitled "ZeroG lll".

Avatars wearing amazing attachment costumes flew around and through the sculpture, while music played in the background and some incidential sounds were triggered by the skydancers. It was an amazing sight, and made me very glad that I had seen it.

The skydancers were Kokoro Fasching, Deborah Strangelove, Anhinga Chaika and Kumi Kuhr. They did an amazing job, wheeling and diving in a 200 cubic metre space, 700 metres above the Brilliant sim.

Most of all for me it was inspiring, and pushed the boundaries of what could be considered an artwork and an event in Second Life.
