Hyperplace Troy

hyperplace Troy logoThis could be interestingly weird or weirdly interesting: Hyperplace Troy, a series of events this weekend. Blurbage:

Our contemporary notions of place have shifted and expanded as technology and mobility touches the lives of local and global communities. Virtual environments, GPS signals, gentrification, psycho-geography, local ecology, and urban decay are some of the themes artists traverse while navigating their relationships with Place. ...
Hyperplace Troy's program will feature media and visual artists, readings, performances, workshops, and discussions. Hyperplace Troy seeks to bring together artists and audiences from various backgrounds and to foster engagement, sparking new discoveries and conversations.

The events this Friday and Saturday include iParade ("a locative film experience" through downtown Troy), a discussion panel at the Rensselaer County Historical Society, and a performance at the Troy Music Hall ($15).
