Site-specific participatory video installation
Multi-screen projection, web interface, motion sensor
Dimensions variable
untitled [ ] – interactive is the participatory branch of the untitled [ ] series. Like the video iterations, it repurposes Google Street View imagery into a nonlinear visual system, dissolving sequential views into one another until familiar streets become a flowing, fragmented topology. Each iteration begins from my unplanned walks through the city, traced with GPS and remapped through the system, so that everyday navigation becomes an experience of temporal drift and dislocation.
Where the video works reflect on Street View’s one-way interactivity, this version opens a return channel. Through a web interface, visitors contribute their own reflections on the city, layering human memory over the automated record of online mapping. As visitors move in front of the projection, a motion sensor follows them, highlighting sites within the Street View stream and surfacing the texts contributed to those places.
Projected at architectural scale across multiple screens, the installation places participants inside a shifting field where the machine’s images of a city meet the memories of people who move through it.
