And in 1995 he was a founding member of the Danish art group "The Artnode Foundation".

From that time he has mainly been working with networked physical installations.

Cubes

My project will be a sort of pseudo science fiction. I will set up a “Schrödingers Cat” experiment taking place both within SL and FL (First Life).
Schrödinger’s Cat was a seemingly paradoxical thought experiment devised by Erwin Schrödinger published in the magazine “Naturwissenschaften” in 1935.
The original experiment attempts to illustrate the incompleteness of the Copenhagen interpretation when going from subatomic to macroscopic systems in Quantum Mechanics. In other words the experiments tells us there us there is something wrong in the way we understand reality.
The working title of my piece is “Cubes”.
