Tor Lindstrand
Tor Lindstrand, lecturer in architecture at The Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, has created a Second Life Modern Dance Theatre as the product of a collaboration with Modern Dance Theatre. As their building renovation, architecture students have been working on proposals for alternative premises for some years, but now Tor Lindstrand has come up with something different: The Second Life Modern Dance Theatre has been designed by four students of architecture, Moa Andrén, Caroline Ektander, Markus Wagner and Kristin Heiskel-Gausdal.
It simultaneously held its opening performance, “Second Life First Life Dance,” at the island The Office, 92,59,30 (Second Life) and at the School of Architecture (First Life). The aim of the project is to explore the boundaries between virtual and real life, as part of Unreal Stockholm (www.unrealstockholm.org). The choreography was based on “The Adventure,” created for Impulstanz, Vienna, by Marie Claire Forte and Christina Vassiliou, and movements from Second Life.
