TILTING WINDS, 2022Peformance, Cementa Festival 2022
Performance at Cementa Festival 2022, Kandos, NSW Australia
The Tilting Winds performance lecture is an aesthetic investigation into public perceptions of wind turbines and the phenomena they produce. The presentation brings together creative research that was conducted during a Cementa residency including a community workshop that looked at what people think about wind turbines in and around the town of Kandos. The presentation also considers how these opinions and perspectives might be informed by representations elsewhere. This project asks how we develop relationships with wind turbines through their physical presence, our sensing bodies and the energies they create, be that sound, light, electricity, magnetism (to name a few).
The performance was developed for Cementa 2022, presented at Henbury Golf Club Kandos, NSW, May, 2022. Discussion of the development of this project was presented at ISEA2024. Read paper here.
