Let's Take a Walk. Still from video, 2010. Video shows montage of video footage received by Twitter participants who filmed their walk.
Let’s Take a Walk uses the phenomenon of Twitter so that people all over the world can join in a “group walk.” Requesting that they film their journey, the various footage are then assembled into a video installation showing the experience of our group walking in different places but moving synchronized through the same footprints…
Still from Performance, Let's Take a Walk #9
LTAW #9 featured a new addition to the work, inviting not only participants via Twitter, but also participants gathered from visitors to the Figment Art Festival on Governor’s Island (2010) to walk alongside me during the performance. It also introduced a town crier and drummer that helped lead the procession. I also wore a knitted overskirt that unraveled with each step, leaving a physical trace of our path.
