Hi Zita and ADA's. Some of Lettingspace's series of works might fit your interest - and more specifically, the project I did with them last year - Market Testament - which was an installation/intervention that broke into the inner architecture of a Wellington office block and ran the building's lighting system via a data feed conversion of the day's stock market activity.
Interestingly to me the work appropriated the building's architecture without changing its form - from the outside the building might appear to be untouched, but it was being driven by a unique agency - that of stock market changes. In the sense of public space - I find it interesting that the private/public boundary is blurred - this private space broadcasts publicly by its visibility, but the broadcast itself is hermetically sealed within the building's insulating glass walls. In a way both inviting/teasing (the curtains are left undrawn) and yet gated. Letting Space commissioned an essay by Martin Patrick: http://www.lettingspace.org.nz/essay-market-testament/ Pics here: http://www.lettingspace.org.nz/images-the-market-testament/the-market-testament/9504651 cheers, Colin -- + + + + + + + + + + + http://colinhodson.net - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
