Oporto-Brooklyn Bridge
Collaboration with Naomi Kaly
Interactive sound installation
Awarded 2nd Prize in Future Places - Digital Media Festival
Maus Hábitos; Oporto, Portugal. October 2009
"Based on their observation that the Dom Luis I Bridge and the Brooklyn Bridge roughly reflect one another across a horizontal access, their elegant project explores the thin line where two different linguistic and cultural territories can connect and engage in conversation. The engaging and very tactile project allows for user created conversation, as well as deep reflection on the metaphor of wire in today’s digital society."
- Jurors Hugh Forrest, Karen Kocher and Cristina Sá
