The original 240-mile walk was made in protest of the British salt tax. My update of this seminal protest march took place at Eyebeam and in Second Life, the Internet-based virtual world. For this performance, I walked the entire 240 miles on a converted treadmill and online. My steps on the treadmill controlled the forward movement of my avatar, MGandhiChakrabarti, enabling the live and virtual reenactment of the march.” - joe de lappe
