Presence

This piece was created for the Albany BulbFest, a festival exploring the resilience of the park in the face of natural and human effects. I composed five short monologues to draw people’s attention to various points in the park. The audio was accessed via QR codes printed on cards that I hung on trees near each point. Similar to “I Spy” and “Utility Box Art,” my aim was to call attention to views that people might not notice otherwise. I believe this encourages people to appreciate their surroundings more and enriches their sense of place.
