operation CNTRCPY™ (2003-2004)

CNTRCPY™ investigates media and social systems dealing with techniques of perception and organises performances, installations and events, testing new ways of integrating the visitor into the artwork.
Operation CNTRCPY™ is an SMS-based game-like project, turning out as an ironic commentary on the actual efforts of manned space flight to mars and our yearning for virtual realities. Players have to aim at guiding the own spaceship safely through the cosmos, reaching the mars at fast as possible. The aim of the project, which will be going on for several weeks, is to investigate the simultaneous multi-personality and multi-presence of people in different "societies" due to mobile communication.
