KARLA PTACEK and VICKI SMITH, 2004
A project developed between two groups of students from Westland High School [Hokitika] and Eltham Hill College for Girls [London] through asynchronous discussion and sharing of files [image, text, sound and video] while they learned how to develop artefacts for, and engage through, the newly developed online theatre space UpStage.
