Abstract: The integral representations of the $hatsl(2,C)$ Spin 1/2 - Spin 1/2 Kac-Moody Blocks on the torus, arising from the free field representation of the $hatsl(2,C)$ Kac-Moody algebra of Wakimoto and Bernard and Felder, are used to derive an infinite class of representations of the mapping class group of the two punctured torus.
