This installation sketch is exploring the merging of spaces and conversations. The idea is fairly literal at present: the “outdoors” (a space central installation) is bordered by other semi-public spaces such as a cafe, bathroom, and bus interior. These are all spaces the cell phone has the potential to create a bridge between.
- How do conversations in “mediated” (and what does mediated mean here) public space differ from private telephone conversations?
- What questions would a construction such as this ask?
- Will the gallery audience be allowed to move freely through the installation or will they be given a path to follow?
