What does examining the city and your place within it look and sound like?
PROJECT: FIND THE OTHERS
ARTIST: JAY JERMYN
Find the Others offers the viewer an outward looking meditative experience and an opportunity to examine their city and their place within it. Find the Others is a participatory work that incorporates sound and narration to direct a viewer through an audio and visual experience of a specific site. The framework for ‘finding the others’ is established through two sets of binoculars situated at a distance of up to a kilometre and looking back at one another. Accompanied by headphones with a soundscape made up of field recordings, conversations and instrumentation of the other person's location, two participants at a time are simultaneously immersed in an audio and visual experience that guides them through a panorama of people, places and perspectives, to eventually finding each other.
