I am very excited that
Monkey Wrench Design is donating
two cans on a sting phones to be used
into
the
Seeking Shelter installation at the
ZERO1 Biennial.
- The public will be invited to plug in their mobile devices
and search specific tags in SoundCloud and listen to the audio there.
- The public will be invited to submit audio recordings of what they would like to
see in a bus shelter (these statements they will tag with "seeking shelter"). I am so jazzed about this integration. I am beginning to sketch out how this set up will look. Here is my first concept sketch below.
Below is a sketch of the back side of the bus stop installation. It will have various interactive components:
- The bus stop will have a herb wall
garden of recycled plastic bottles. There will be a QR code link to a google form for people to submit recipes.
- Youth designed radial patterns reflecting on
community as well as and instagram image will be made into window decals. Visitors will submit the instagram images and I will print on window decal film for them to place up on the walls. These will light up like stained glass at night.

Above, starter plugs bought from
Glow Hydroponics. The goal of the installation is to inspire youth to think outside the box and envision what they would add to a bus shelter. The bulk of the project is the
Seeking Shelter Youth Design Challenge that will launch in the fall.
Above is the structure so far. It will be painted soon.
