"Perceptive Dislocations" was a performative event at the Goethe-Institute Island in Second Life.

Cyberspace: The Final Frontier. Since 1994 with the advent of the World Wide Web, online virtual 3D worlds promised us endless freedom to be and do and create whatever we want, free of all restrictions. The most well-known of these, Second Life, promised us a newer and better virtual life, where we could live out our fantasies of who we want to be and what we want to do. As with all gated communities, however, membership comes with a stern set of rules regulating what can and cannot be done where and when and by whom. There are ways however of subverting the established order and creating shifts in the perceived space via artistic interventions. Thiel and the U|D|K twisted the rules of perception to create spatial and visual dislocations in the space-time fabric of Second Life. Slideshow courtesy of Bokowsky+Laymann:
