Ouvroir the Movie (2010) dir. Chris Marker

Theres just no other way to say this: Chris Marker has built a museum in the sky of Second Life. Thats right, Second Lifethe vast virtual realm, which since 2003 has enabled users to build, explore, and interact via avatars within a tabula rasa of cybergeography. Its not just for weird virtual sex anymore: now it has a touch of Old Media class. At the coordinates 187, 61, 39, on some faroff shimmering shores of the grid, lies the island of Ouvroir (which is actually an archipelago). This digital Xanadu is strewn with catshaped coves, roving humpbacks, a castle keep, and a downed 747; a massive red orb hovers in the pixelated cerulean firmament above. .. Le Musée de Marker
