LETTERS TO AN UNKNOWN FRIEND & TAKE A LETTER
Letters to an Unknown Friend was a created for the Sacred Spaces exhibition. The project combined a turn of the century typewriter with a computer program. The installation combines a 1950's office environment with an interactive manipulated computer/typewriter/ LCD screen. Visitors were invited to sit at the old fashioned desk and typewriter, then scroll through a computer program to read a series of 40 letters which had been discarded at the San Francisco landfill. The performance was set up as a 1950’s office with nine performers. Take a letter invited the audience to bring in letters of significance to them. Scribes wrote these letters onto the walls of the installation, and stenographers took notes about each letter that was brought in to the performance. |
