Further Information - Sound & Video
A digital installation that investigates the life that exists beyond the 4walls of the home: the neighbours. Using digital projection and surround sound a space is created to simulate a room in a house where a multitude of 'neighbours' are heard through the walls. Through the sensuous action of placing ear to wall, the audience engage with real-life narratives, fictions and found conversations that explore the underbelly of living in the company of virtual strangers.
