During our Gunyah
residency we plan to develop three new works for our upcoming exhibition at
ATVP (At The Vanishing Point) in Newtown Sydney. The first is composed of sound
bytes sampled from found vinyl records remixed with sounds recorded from
nature. We will also be developing a free phone/tablet app based on 'Traces', to form a composition of
narratives in our memory and how we remember events. The other work will be a series of
interactive drawings with animated components revealed through the use of
Augmented Reality technology, so that these drawings of landscapes and street-scapes
gradually morph into alternative scenes.
