Hunting the Machine Ghosts of Brighton |
Review By Kat Braybrooke - http://bit.ly/2sIndKY
What is a city that dreams of itself? In Brighton, a recent psychoegeography
tour unveiled hidden machine entities, the radical wisdoms of forgotten
structures, and the subversive act of walking alongside algorithms while
listening for their histories.
In our own interpretation of the psychogeography "play box", people from across
the UK came together from local community discussion lists, universities and
creative networks to join the group. We called them ‘node guardians’ to connote
a shared sense of ownership regarding both the tour nodes (which were lead not
only by ourselves but also by several other brave participants, who also
facilitated hands-on activities to engage listeners more deeply in the lived
experiences of each machine node).
Wishing you well.
