1. Two web artists (net.legends) will face-off in a ring to alter a web page – the cyber-ring — live. The resulting changes will be seen by the public on a screen and by web surfers on the net.
2. The artists will face-off for three hours using their skills of design and hacking to assemble and disassemble the work done by their opponent.
3. Each player will have a 15-minute turn to prepare and program their attack on the web page.
4. During each turn, the respective player will also play the sound or music of their choosing which will be heard live through the sound system of the venue, or on the net in real-time through streaming audio. This music can be then remixed by their opponent.
5. The cyber wrestling match will physically be held in a boxing ring set in the exhibition space with room for the audience to walk around it.
