You have to lose yourself to find where you really are.
Using technology as a tool for mapping, creating and presenting an expanded perceptual realm of their surroundings, Geoff & Andrew have made a sound walk and speculative map of three different areas of Wirksworth, geolocated in a phone app for iPhone. Download from the App Store here.
They want to reconsider their current thinking as autonomous artists, moving into more holistic ways of understanding their surroundings, and creating hyper-real experiences for others to engage with, where residues and ghosts of the past collide with projections of the future to create an augmented present moment.
Geoff & Andrew ran a series of live events at the end of the commission period, which were sound-led artwalks, presented at the 2016 Wirksworth Festival alongside visual material generated during the commission.
A third collaborater, photographer George Miles, has documented the project with Geoff and Andrew.
