Artwork title | [murmur] |
Description | [murmur] at Dublin Docklands was an audio documentary as part of the 2007 Bealtaine festival which collected and presented stories set in specific Docklands locations, as told by Dubliner's themselves. At each of these places, a [murmur] Dublin Docklands icon (a green ear), with telephone number and location code, marked where stories were available. With a mobile phone, users could listen to the story while also experiencing the place itself. Some stories would suggest that the listener walk around, following a certain path, while others allowed the listener to wander and gaze. |
Mediation | A website was launched to support the project where the stories could be listened to. |
