Saturday night, I have a mission from Kelly, gonna help w/ this Creative Time project.

Popular military simulation games move out of game space and onto the streets of New York when Anne-Marie Schleiner and her team project the violent and realistic imagery of war onto building facades. Operation Urban Terrain (OUT) is a one-night live-action intervention of online military games played out in public spaces by art activists using high tech gear, strategy, and humor. The work will be presented in New York on August 28, on the eve of the Republican National Convention.

Schleiner and her cohort, clad in futuristic military garb designed by the artist, will be on the street carrying a projector and a laptop. They will be connected through a mobile wireless bicycle to an online team of five game players located in various global locations. The team intervenes on servers in a popular online military simulation game with performance actions—simulated grenade suicides, propaganda, playful and absurd dance performances. The revised game will be projected live onto city buildings, and they can be viewed at the sites or through web cams on the OUT website.
