yep, right, I have to reformulate it, just wanted to be sure to include all
"reasons" for us taking several languages

this is a VERY ROUGH possibility of how the actors can be spread.=20
don't ask me why Odysseus is playing on that and that certain stage :-)
maybe someone can explain that chart to me :?)
We are NOT FINISHED with the text yet, so we are not sure if we need 2
actors on _every_ stage, we might at least need women somewhere! so if we
first rewrite and shorten the dialogs and second distribute the actors in a
better way, we may not need that many players.

sounds good
what about the chorleader? and "program" that would tell them if they are
doing to much, telling them they should wait or trying to choose another
sound, or ???
In any way we need a chorleader who tells them what to do. Perhaps it (the
chorleader program) can interactive regulate them as well? Like a=
conductor...
still thinking of the name
choros
cyros (o no the cy - again, and it sound more than a greek food)
but shouldnt we express somehow that this is the audience coming from
cyberspace, from virtual world
chorvirtualos (uahh)

>>6.1.3 ) Text

because of what you stated conferring point 1.1) Language
that makes sense

>>6.2 ) The Lobby
>>
>>A)
>>To establish a relationship between the audience members on every venue,

>>would show pictures taken live from the audience of the other stages. By
>>moving, waving and saying cheers the audience members could interact

>>B)
>>A alternative idea came up on saturday (quote Rainer) it is intended to=
set
>>up several "surf stations" in the foyer of the theatre to give the=
audience
>>the possibility to chat with the audience of the other stages after the

>>since this isn't a mission critical application and only standard internet

>>IMHO, these surf stations are optional (no sponsor, no surf stations)

yep, we had an interesting talk yesterday, when Karin and I presented
Oudeis on an exebition / fair of Internet and Computer firms.
One guy showed us a picture of a club in Vienna which should update ever 5
or so minutes (as santiago mentioned above)
The camera was posed on the ceiling, so you had the bird's-eye view. The
guy said, why not to use such a picture of the stage (which one of the 5-7
real stages???) and "draw" the webstage "into" it.
So than finally pictures would be included!! (As everybody seems to want,
and what I was thinking we could avoid .... but I m not sure anymore, I
have to admit)
What ideas did you and Guillermo had?
We are still trying to find a webdesigner here, what should we tell him/her?
