We might call this tele-interactivity. Paul Sermon has produced provocative works in this vein, such as Telematic Dreaming. In this work, a video camera sends the image of Paul, one a bed, to another site at which it is projected onto a bed. At the second site, a guest is invited onto the bed. Paul can see the remote site by a returned video image.
Pauls image interacts with the guest on the bed.
The piece also includes two way audio contact. Through its direct eroticism pieces generates a host of questions about prescence. A second sub-genre utilises the idea of teleoperation. More provocatively, Stelarc's recent Fractal Flesh project allows his body to be teleoperated over the net. T-Vision offers a radical new paradigm of computation.
