Emotional Stock Market
An Installation in which real time online content is straeamed and printed
according to emotional categorization. Modified receipt printers continuously
print out tweets containing the words ‘happy’, ‘sad’ and ‘love’. A trading
of exchanged tweets takes places between audience and performer,
according to the value of the tweets. The receipt paper piles up on the floor
below computer screens that display the streaming information. A website
accompanies the project displaying the share index and value of each
emotional that is being expressed in the tweets.
Yourhomepage
A large google maps website that contains different coloured landmark icons
that reveal videos of people remembering where they grew up against a
backdrop of the environment on google streetview. The streetview landscape
explores the local area while the person recalls their favorite aspects of their
neighbourhood and where they grew up. The video is watched in a window
frame within the google maps interface. The people talk about what they can
see, how the place has changed (or how different it looks) and what they can
remember.
The Last Day of TV
A series of 5 boxes that contain 5 videos that together make up a bootleg
recording of the last day of analogue broadcasting in London, UK. Each
box has a different UK national channel logo on the cover and each video is
labeled with the date and time information of each recording. The boxes are
in gray tone with white lettering on the case and black on each individual vhs
sleeve. Each video case contains an image of a television tower overlayed
with 5 circles that represent an analogue broadcast signal.
