Janet Cardiff’s work is a precedent that I’d like to emulate.
Some of her work might be characterized as augmented reality- where images or multimedia overlap with real space and the viewer’s experience of space. My experiences with the work have been transformative- such as spennding time in the upper floors of PS1 in Queens, NY shortly after 9/11 roaming among the speakers voicing “40 Part Motet” as the sun set over Manhattan.
