Lost
in the Memory Palace is an installation at the AGO by Janet Cardiff and
George Bures Miller that runs April 6th - August 18, 2013. The
installation depicts the ambiguous landscape in which we explore the
relationship between what we see and what we hear.
The
above photo showcases one of the multiple imaginary situations of the installation 'The 40
Part Motet" where time becomes less active and changes. Thus, allowing
various narratives to blend and engage the viewer through a unique
environment. "The
40 Part Motet" consists of 40 speakers mounted on stands, placed in an
oval pattern with amplifiers & playback computer. The duration of
the experience is fourteen minutes long, loops for eleven minutes and
has three minutes of intermission.
I encourage you to go and check out this creative exhibit while it lasts!
