Overview

#AloneTogether is a performance art project by actor Shia LaBeouf in collaboration with artists Nastja Ronkko and Luke Turner, in which the trio will livestream themselves from three different remote cabins in Finland over the course of the month, sending video to a small cabin placed inside the Kiasma Museum in Helsinki, Finland.

Background

On April 12th, the #AloneTogether stream was launched on the Kiasma Museum website.[1] Visitors at the Kiasma Museum could send LaBeouf, Ronkko and Turner messages via text, which were subsequently posted on the website.

#ALONETOGETHER weaves a virtual link between Kiasma’s visitors and the artists. From 12 April 2017, LaBeouf, Rönkkö & Turner will spend a month in three remote cabins somewhere in Lapland, entirely cut off from other people. A video link to a small cabin installed in the gallery is their only point of contact with the outside world.

Developments

Shortly after, 4chan and 8chan users began attempting to locate the cabins based on wood patterns on the wall behind the artists (shown below, left). Meanwhile, YouTuber Brandi uploaded footage of LaBeouf responding to a vistor at the museum.[5] Shortly after, screencaps from the footage began circulating online, along with claims that LaBeouf quoted Twitter user @spacetwinks in her responses (shown below, right).
