Installation

This City’s Centre 1. Window

The views from 40 city centre windows and the residents that live with them made up this video/sound installation that was showing at RAMM (Royal Albert Memorial Museum) 23 July – 22 September 2013. City centre residents living within 10 minutes walk of Cathedral Green volunteered the favourite views from their homes and an interview about it to be distilled into this 120 minute work. The installation shares 3 minutes of of each view… condensed from a 30-45 minute interview. Full sound files will be available soon on the Archive page.

Hear more about the making process in Private Views and Public Art, a discussion between videographer Volkhardt Müller and Cultural Geographer John Wylie (University of Exeter) held at RAMM, 13 Sept 2013 (running time 1hr 1min).

View our slideshow of the launch event at RAMM on 24 July. Click or tap on the images to see them full screen… photographed by Benjamin J Borley.

There will be a talk entitled Private Views and Public Art about the making of the installation with Blind Ditch member Volkhardt Müller and Cultural Geographer John Wylie from the University of Exeter at RAMM,  1pm, 13 Sept. More details here.
