A geolocative performance executed in conjunction with School of the Art Institute of Chicago's 2010 MFA exhibition and Trampoline's Territorial Play programme in Nottingham, UK. For a period of three weeks in May, information detailing my physical location will be continuously fed through two ubiquitous cloud computing/social networking services and displayed on two monitors in the Sullivan Galleries in downtown Chicago. Locations will be accompanied by a stream of verbal commentary, transmitted via SMS messaging & Twitter, allowing remote audiences a more intimate access into my own psycho-geographical space. On Friday May 15th, all of my geolocative information will be routed to the Digital Broadway Media Center in Nottingham, while the Sullivan gallery feed will be interrupted and replaced by locations and commentary from a surrogate performer in the UK.
