Misprint in Milan

Misprint Thursday presented her epic performance RIENTRARE on Odyssey as part of the 2010 Innovation Festival. The event took place simultaneously in Second Life and live in Milan, Italy.

Misprint collaborated with composer and musician Ulf Skogsbergh on three songs for the piece. Misprint also made three separate sets - the visuals for the performance were designed specifically for each composition in order to create "a cinematic diorama in the presentation of the installations and songs". The audience moved from one set to another while Misprint performed and generated live soundscape. These photos documenting the performance are by Fau Ferdinand.
