For Christ Church Arts Week, people who are not familiar with the college have been invited to collaborate on this project. In exchange of a college tour, the visitors have described something that had caught their eye. Through their elaborate verbal descriptions, you are invited to also explore or re-explore familiar or unfamiliar spaces through first-hand experiences and inquisitive eyes.
This is a bit of a belated announcement, but I participated in a rather cool project a few months back at the University of Oxford, where I study. Christ Church is one of the most well-known colleges in Oxford, and Fine Art student Michelle Chin created an interactive guide to the college with audio descriptions of various places within it. I wrote and recorded a description of the Old Library Olive Tree. Listen to the project here – my recording is listed under ‘You’re Invited To Open the Lid’.
