The Ph.D. project will focus on the coherence, consistency, causality and
synchronicity arising when combining distributed physical and virtual
realities.

The Ph.D. project will focus on merging physical and virtual realities.
Artists and the audience at one location must blend with the other
participating locations into a coherent presentation, merging the local
physical reality with the visualization of the remote locations. The
research is systems oriented where systems are designed, implemented and
experimented upon.


Please forward to your colleagues, especially fresh graduate students from
masterprograms, ready for 3 years in Tromsø working on making the
distributed opera stage into reality within 3-4 years. Do not hesitate to
ask and comment.


All the best 
Niels
