Virtual Boyfriends
![]() We created an online Facebook Role Play Game where we created fictional Facebook profiles for our favourite literary characters. We felt that these fictional boyfriends from Austen or Tolkien’s imagination combined with a social networking forum would give us the perfect boyfriends. Unfortunately or fortunately we also wanted each other’s fictional boyfriends. Hence creating a kind of tag competition on who could win over others.
What we loved is the interaction between the fictional characters in a world that was not an imaginary land of castles and orcs, but the sterile white and blue of Facebook. The largest piece in the Christie’s sale also became its biggest hit: Henri Matisse’s 6-foot-tall bronze woman with a long ponytail from 1930, “Back IV,” sold to New York dealer Larry Gagosian for $43 million. The work set a new record the artist at auction and exceeded its $18 million high estimate. Mr. Gagosian won the work following a 10-minute, three-way bidding war between fellow dealer Bob Mnuchin and a telephone bidder.
