Announcement: Whitehead & Oliver


Simon Whitehead and Barnaby Oliver: PINGS
PINGS springs directly from the geographical distance between two collaborators. Working from their locales they explore the physical space between them through rivers and air and a range of other terrains with their own qualities, such as the web, phone, post, and less tangible links of memory and synchronicity.
