Peer-to-Peer
Sérgio Brás d'Almeida & Eduardo Morais at Sem Palco (2010)
Peer-to-Peer is a performance art piece set in a controlled, monitored environment. Every player follows simple rules of interaction to achieve a fundamental purpose - establishing peer-to-peer connections, from one player to another. Everyone can take part in building and manipulating the show because anyone is both a viewer and potential performer.
Where should we draw the line between what's real and what's simulated? How do we react, how do we divide our attention when a physical presence competes with a virtual presence?
We're all part of a performance. Everyone can play Peer-to-Peer.
