[Metalab-announce] Join us for a street game of epic proportion in the night of August 7

[Markus Hametner]

Join us for a free street game of epic proportion; a pursuit across the 
city in multiple parts.

===============================================================================

Journey to the End of the Night: Vienna
=> http://journeyvienna.at

===============================================================================

On the night of Friday, August 7

Meetup:
   a shallow pit in Prater at 20:00
   (GPS: 48.20673 / 16.40878, see map)
   near Tram 1 stop Prater Hauptallee and U2 station Stadion

Map & details at http://journeyvienna.at

Wear comfortable shoes, bring water, possibly a camera and everyone you 
think you can outrun.
Expect to travel around 10 km, and to be outdoors for two to five hours.

===============================================================================


The city spreads out before you. Rushing from point to point, lit by the 
slow strobe of fluorescent buses in dark streets. Stumbling into 
situations for a stranger's signature. Fleeing unknown pursuers, 
breathing hard, admiring the landscape and the multitude of worlds 
hidden in it.

For one night, drop your relations, your work and leisure activities, 
and all your usual motives for movement and action, and let yourself be 
drawn by the attractions of the chase and the encounters you find there.

Try to make it through a series of checkpoints as quickly and as 
stealthily as possible, while avoiding being caught by chasers. Should 
you be captured, you become a chaser yourself and have to pursue your 
former friends and allies. No skates, no bikes, no cars — just your feet 
and public transport.

     who would like to get chased through the city at night! ***
