[ISEA2013] Roundtable: Robyn Backen – Last Word 2012

Roundtable Statement

Roundtable: SITEWORKS: Ecologies and Technologies

Last Word 2012 was a collaborative performance on the Shoalhaven River, Bundanon at dusk. It was the third and final commissioned performance in the series for Siteworks. This work developed research into acoustic and light transmission systems in remote environments. While much research into the future advancement of twenty-first century technology is poignant, the examination of past and present forms of communication enabled a rich and deeper insight into the human condition.
