NO LAB in RMB City

Cao Fei (SL: China Tracy) + MAP OFFICE (Gutierrez + Portefaix)
At Prospect.1 New Orleans
November 1, 2008-January 9, 2009 (Preview days: October 30 & 31)

Part of the new Prospect.1 New Orleans art biennale, "NO LAB in RMB City" is a stark, surreal vision of New Orleans in Second Life. A special collaboration between Cao Fei (SL: China Tracy) and MAP OFFICE (Gutierrez + Portefaix), NO LAB is a striking black-and-white space that investigates the landscape (physical, cultural, historic) of post-Katrina New Orleans. Come visit and see the waters rise... And fall... And rise again.


In Real Life: Contemporary Arts Center (CAC), New Orleans, Louisiana, USA (Oct 30 & 31, 10am-6pm, Nov 1, 12-8pm)
In Second Life: RMB City: New Orleans, RMB City 2 (96, 170, 31)

I so appreciate that you produced this piece! First saw it at the Prospect.1 exhibit, where it set the mood of the whole space for me. Your video has become a part of my life and I enjoy the music, sound effects & visuals again and again.
