It was first a telesculpture project (using Internet) to realize same pieces at the same time both in France and USA with a rapid prototyping machine (LOM / Helisys Inc.). Two originals would have been presented for a "virtual transatlantic cocktail" during inauguration of InterSculpt95 , with the Picturetel videoconferencing system.
But sponsoring was not ready in the States. The French part of this work was realized by M. Thierry Valladeau in Parangon Inc., Directed by M. Pierre Auffret. Parangon have also made a piece from Stewart Dickson, received by the Net.
