Description
Summary:This portfolio comprises video and audio recordings of five projects which have formed the core of my practice during the period of study, and a document which develops some strategies for thinking about and engaging with the projects based on an understanding of their relationship to other work, to the wider world and to my working methods. Four principle issues are considered; prisms through which to view the works presented: Interaction, Feedback/Interference, Mistranslation and the Body. In addition some thoughts are given on my strategies for engaging with the objects and environments as designer, performer and listener. Themes of circularity, of recontextualisation and of ambiguity become clearly important. The works are additionally documented on a DVD comprising audio recordings, video recordings and photographs of situations, performances and events.
