On the first night of the Atlantic Cultural Space conference in Moncton Andrea Cooper wrapped up the “Nymphs of the Night” show with a great presentation about her real-world and virtual project “Starring”. It’s a great intervention in St. John’s that featured a huge billboard with a picture and the URL of the site. Postcards and a television commercial also sent people to the site to see the work. The picture beside this article is Andrea before her presentation, trying to get her site to show up… it dropped off the Web just before she started. She remained cool and calm and the site went back up just in time so she could show it off. The video “Starring: Part 2” shows off more of the world of the 50 foot women in and around St. John’s. “Starring: Part 2” is showing at Eastern Edge in St. John’s as part of “Private Constructs” until June 8, so if you’re there and you haven’t seen it…go now. Andrea is not 50 feet tall.
