StoryRooms
StoryRooms, curated by Andrea Zapp, took place from October 2005 to January 2006 at the Museum of Science and Industry in Manchester. The exhibition was documented in a film commissioned from Dave Griffiths and Nick Jordan. The film records a group of internationally renowned media artists exploring the ways we communicate with each other, and with technology, through interactive scenarios and impromptu visual dialogues. The projects examine media culture and digitised society by linking the physical installation with the digital space. Artists were Paul DeMarinis, Susan Collins, Andrea Zapp, Paul Sermon, Tan Teck Weng, Cornelia Sollfrank & Ken Goldberg. The DVD catalogue contains a 40-minute film of interviews, installations and audience involvement within the unique setting and atmosphere of the 1830 Warehouse, the historic site of the world's first passenger-railway station. The booklet includes theoretical essays on media art, narrative and networking by leading art critics. The StoryRooms catalogue also contains two new film pieces by Dave Griffiths and Nick Jordan, created in response to the project. >> see StoryRooms site >> see Publications |
