Second City
In the form of objects, installations, interventions, performances and workshops, *Second City* on Linz’s Marienstraße will take the developments of recent years to the extreme—and perhaps slightly beyond—and attempt to get to the bottom of the issues inherent in them. Serving as the basis of this effort is a very graphic form of digital world: the metaverses or 3D worlds like *Second Life* whose rise to prominence has been the talk of the data-domain of late. What happens when established forms of digital communication are transferred directly into physical, public space? What status does privacy have in that world and in this one? In which light do digital artifacts appear when they, in their form adapted to digital space, are transformed into concrete physical objects?
