About the Program
Gallery 536, with the support of grunt gallery, presented the world's first Online Avatar Talent Show—a virtual online talent show in a 3D video game-like environment. Participants were drawn from the Traveler online community, and thus will hailed from around the globe. The talent categories included spoken word, comedy, dance, and music. A winner from each was selected by audience members in attendance at grunt and notified via email. This was the second in a series of events exploring performance using the internet within a live audience context.Artist
