Wireless gaming urban intervention

OUT: Operation Urban Terrain: a live action wireless gaming urban intervention is an artistic and activist intervention by Anne-Marie Schleiner that pits online gaming with urban graffiti on the streets of NYC on August 30, during the Republican National Convention.

“Two women in gear are on the ground. One with a laptop and the other with a projector pointing onto building walls in 3 key locations in the city. They are connected through a mobile wireless bicycle to an online team of five game players located around the world. They intervene on servers in a popular online military simulation game with performance actions carried out by the whole team.The live projections in the citycan also be viewed through web cams on the OUT website.”
