Getting involved in the Sound and Vision events gave me a chance to explore ideas of stage-set/background that should work in certain situations.
The first outcome was a structure strictly designated for this event. It was erected for one day with a lifting the acts out of the surroundings and giving them a special set up.
The second time happened upon through me being asked if i can rebuild the structure for Swindon Open…of course i said yes, as I felt it did not reach its full potential and their was much more to it then that one day allowed.
The second instance of Stage-set/corridor evolved into a fully interactive environment, a place to wonder through re-arrange add-to and take-from.
I placed a camera above the gallery exit and run a live-feed through..so in the corridor present happenings could be watched.
Besides the life-feed there were a half hidden video made by me:
I Promise I Will never Die
The overall feel of the piece was an embrrassment of contemporary culture, with its over commercialized mega-information blasts.
I used bright colours, reflective surfaces, lighting, commercial materials, and everyday objects,such as electronics (old PS1,joystick..) and stuffed toys,magazines etc
I shall attache some images and a video to demonstrate the idea
please let me know what u think
feedback is always appreciated.
