we invite you to our cyberformance
“Calling Home - Part 1″
on UpStage (online performance platform)
Tuesday July 1, 2008, find your local time here: http://tinyurl.com/5f65a3
eg: 10am GMT, 7pm EST, 9pm NZST
Meet Heather, Esme, Michael J Finch and Grand Uncle.
Can you help them find their home?
Go to http://www.activelayers.net/callinghome.html and click on the pictures to get to each character’s “stage”. Make sure your sound is on. It’s that simple!!
The stages will be active 15 minutes before the performance. Feel free to type in the chat at any time.
Troubleshooting: Normally all you need is a regular browser with the flash plugin, but if you’re not getting on the stages, make sure any firewall is off, and that port 8084 is open.
Interested in participating in the evolving stories of Michael J Finch, Grand Uncle, Heather Smith and Esmé?

See you there!
Cheers,
