INSTALLATION SOUND DESIGN
The Fencing Project
The Fencing Project, a new video installation by Zoe Svendsen and Simon Daw, with dancers Sita Ostheimer and Chris Evans will be premiered at Shoreditch Town Hall in London on 25th January from 3-7pm. The installation explores the relationship between live action and remote interaction via the digital mediation of an invented sport, as well as the idea of choreography as tactics, and sport as aesthetic. Matthias Kispert has created a 10-channel sound installation to accompany the piece, made from close-up recordings of the performances that form the source material for this installation.

Brief Encounters/Close-Up
As a next instalment of work about everyday life, D-Fuse are working with researchers from the Bartlett School of Architecture and the University of Nottingham. Screens in the Wild is a project incorporating a series of architectural interfaces in East London and Nottingham neighbourhoods, which use broadcast media and interactive technologies to enhance real world connections, add value to the daily experience of the urban environment, foster community participation and ownership of the urban space. In a number of workshops D-Fuse are building a collection of photos and descriptions that show the area from the view of the people who live there.
