traces
is a locative media work delivered on mobile phone,
exploring the relationships of people, memory
and place. In it, the environments we move through
– the streets, buildings; the parks and
bridges and alleyways of Sydney’s CBD –
reveal themselves as sites rich with meaning,
traced over with both personal and shared narrative.
In traces several
people will disclose a range of true stories,
recounting vivid, intense personal experience
that has occurred in a specific place in Sydney.
A postcard map marking out specific sites will
tie the experiences to the locations, allowing
audiences to experience the stories on their mobile
phones in the actual sites if they wish. Audiences
will also be able to submit their responses to
the stories, or send in their own vivid location
based experiences via SMS, email or blog. The
Opera House, Harbour Bridge, Circular Quay and
other inner Sydney locations will be included
as sites within the project. |
