IDAT101: Interventions

Previously for my IDAT101 project entitled "Site Specific Brief" we collected and processed data found in the Plymouth main Train Station. This data was not only just numbers on a spreadsheet, we also managed to record a general ambient sound emitting from the station, as if we were capturing the environment at the time.

For my original idea I planned to play footsteps back into the same environment and record the surroundings on video, to do this I would have to submit a video protocol.

After not being able to get permission to record video in the Plymouth Train Station I decided to take the contents of the station and place them elsewhere!



...such as the University of Plymouth Student Union (UPSU). At the UPSU there is plenty of people that will be passing by and a whole different environment to the train station. I played the environment recording from the station into this new environment to see how people would react to the changes; this is what happened.
