“Practices of everyday life” 
A hybrid Performance/Installation, “Practices of everyday life” is a technologically enlivened responsive platform on which both the creative process and presentations will be conceived, built, performed and experienced. Our project proposes to use technology and more importantly our creative and collaborative expertise to enhance and amplify the relationship people have with day-to-day activities.
 In so doing we hope to effectively transform the personal perception and connection an individual has with the traditions, form, rhythm and ritualistic repetition of everyday practices.

NOTE:
It is important to note that the experiments and outcomes contained on the documentation pages of this website are a record of sound experiments that were conceived and conducted within an 8 channel sound environment. There is no way to reproduce these events, in stereo, with the richness and depth of sound, as was produced and heard in the natural environment in which they were performed. They do not in anyway do justice to the talents of the artist who conceived the design nor to the score produced. They are meant only to provide documentation of the methods and techniques used in the exploration of concept. Please keep this in mind when viewing all of the visual documentation provided.  


Documentation
The documentation on this website is divided into three seperate pages, "phases 1, 2 and 3"
(See methodology and activity plan below)

Methodology and activity plan

Phase 1: Prototyping of platform and the initial embedding of ready-made techniques within the conceptual structure of the project.
Phase 2: Developing or refining techniques and testing the flexibility and capacity of the system to respond in a spontaneous and unrehearsed manner to physical movement/human interaction.
Phase 3: To allow the platform/system to act as an active partner within the creative process in a way that is collaborative rather than the customary action-reaction design of most responsive systems. "Phase 3" will also include collegial critique. Outside experts will attend the experimental events to critically, artistically, and technically assess the results of the techniques for the proposed scenario.
