« success!! south korea!! »

dear all y'all,

As you may know by now, with your help, we successfully ran our crowd-funding campaign Lines of Flight, and are now in South Korea as Artists-in-Residence at the Incheon Art Platform.

We want to extend a deep and heartfelt thank you to everyone who supported us through this...

It has been a pretty crazy last two weeks:

On Nov 20th, we Skyped in from Bergen, Norway, where we were for the Piksel Festival, to the Pies In The Sky event in Vancouver, where Mirae's family did a bake sale and revillon for the cause, and raised $1,111 CDN !!

 

On Nov 26th-27th, we showed a standalone version of our GPS sonicization project SoniCity as part of the Open Platform for the Tracing Mobility exhibition at the Haus Der Kulturen der Welt in Berlin.

 

Nov 30th was the last day of our online campaign, and thanks to a last-minute donation, we cleared the goal by $10 !!!

 

Dec 4th we ran our goodbye party/last minute fundraiser Becoming Animal, and with the help of a few good friends, had an amazing and very late night... 

 

and we flew to Seoul, by way of Moscow, directly afterwards!

 

On Dec 10th, we gave a short artist talk at the start of Cut & Paste, a digital design tournament in Seoul, and spent the night with people from Graffiti Research Lab and Seoul Hacker Space in one of the weirdest clubs we have ever set foot in...

 

Since, we've been to a few galleries and project spaces, have finally recovered from jet lag, and are starting to setup the studio a little bit more seriously.

 

The next few weeks are all about research for us, as we have quite a bit more to do before we are part of a large group exhibition at the IAP in mid-January. 

 

Otherwise, we're looking forward to blogging again when we have more established here and when the research has really taken off.  

Again, many many thanks.
