>>
>> Hello,
>>
>> We're planning a networked performance conference for Spring/Summer 
>> 2006
>> and invite you to play a role in its development.
>>
>> We've set up a blog on the Turbulence web site
>> (http://turbulence.org/blog) where you can describe your performance
>> activities, and give us your perspective on what the important issues 
>> and
>> challenges are in networked performance today. We hope to obtain a 
>> wide
>> range of perspectives and uncover points of mutual relevance that will
>> help build the content of the conference.
>>
>> The conference will bring together practitioners and scholars from all
>> forms of networked performance--distributed Internet performance
>> (including dance-, theater-, and music-driven works), avatar theater,
>> online performance art, multi-user gaming performance, mixed reality
>> performance, and other hybrid forms.
>>
>> Multiple institutions and organizations will play a role: New Radio 
>> and
>> Performing Arts, Inc. (NRPA), a not-for-profit media organization and
>> parent of Turbulence.org; Emerson College, Boston; and California 
>> State
>> University at Monterey Bay (CSUMB). We plan to work with additional
>> organizations that will commission and/or host performances during the
>> conference.
>>
>> So visit the blog. Tell us who you are. Give us your URL(s) to post 
>> in our
>> links section and the dates of any upcoming networked performances. 
>> And
>> please tell anyone you think might be interested to join us.
>>
>> Looking forward to an exciting discussion and conference,
>>
>> Helen Thorington, Jo-Anne Green (New Radio and Performing Arts, Inc.)
>> Michelle Riel (California State University at Monterey Bay)
>> John (Craig) Freeman, Brooke Knight (Emerson College)
