opt/up 20001/2 is a website and performance installation. The live performance took place on a Sunday afternoon, in March, 2001 at the Spareroom, a gallery in Chicago. The website, launched the same day, still exists online. It contains the original Flash, video and text modules, in addition to a fourth module with images documenting the gallery installation.
The performance text developed for this project was published in EXTENSIONS: The Online Journal for Embodied Technology v.1-2004 (archived HTML version).
