Abstract
By compactifying the Bagger-Lambert-Gustavsson model on , we obtain a new two dimensional massless field theory with dynamical fields valued in the Lie 3-algebra coupled with an SO(1,1) scalar and vector field which are valued in the set of the endomorphisms of the Lie 3-algebra. In the limit the theory reduces to a supersymmetric Lie 3-valued generalization of the Green-Schwarz superstring in the light-cone gauge.

Major modifications. The interpretations of the dynamical fields corrected. The discussion of the weak/strong coupling limits in considerably extended in Section 4. Several formulas simplified. References added. 11 pages
