Light and Sound Playground, 2014
[Table tops, timber, led lights, frosted acrylic, mirrored acrylic, glitter, oil, ink, 3 x camcorders, 3 x projectors, guitar amp]
Sophie and Anna have been developing their idea of a Light and Sound Playground. They have formulated digital and analogue tools and techniques, in order to create an immersive and malleable environment for the audience to direct.
With water and inks, sounds, lights and live streaming, they are interested in merging physical and digital play as a way to alter and expand the limitations of the room inhabited.
Participants are invited to engage with the materials and structures provided which are projected back into the room, to create an environment that is constantly in flux, and both in and out of control.
This work was made possible with the support of Fierce FWD Artist Development Scheme 2014
fiercefwd.org/
Fierce FWD is an artist development programme conceived and produced by Fierce Festival supported by Arts Council England and the Jerwood Charitable Foundation.
The programme is targeted at emerging artists living and working in the West Midlands (outside of full-time education) or those with strong ties through study or growing up here. In keeping with Fierce being a live art festival this scheme is aimed at those developing projects for live performance.
