Residency project, Confederation Centre for the Arts, Charlottetown
ReCALL is a video projection in a storefront window in downtown Charlottetown. During the residency, I developed a textual inventory of smells, rhythms, folklore and colloquialisms as the “invisible residue” of place with input from a cross-section of folklorists, librarians, artists, business people and old-timers. The juxtaposition of text, digital images and scanned maps of the island posited the local voice, local traditions, collective knowledge and personal memories in the public arena. Ambient street noises provided a real-time sound scape.
