I will then try out this new audio collection with the park bench installation (at a public site) for documentation and critique.
My hopes are to present passerby's with a multi-layered experience of displacement (socially, bodily, spatially) of sensory input and expectations. Through this use of displaced audio (in conjunction with the park bench) those engaged will need to work to reconcile notions of public and private as well as introverted spaces and spaces of surveillance. The windows set into the ground in front of the bench (at varying positions and degrees) are meant to operate as metaphors of social constructs -- as frames or evidences of architecture, community, industry and civilization (in various states of flux, operation, and existence).
