View source for Present Views of Past Streets (Series)

This series includes video works that deal with subjective experience of going through an urban space in which one has never been physically.

Before I first traveled to each location, I took a walk in Google Street View. I added a recording of my voice, in which I commented on feelings, observations and the sounds that I would imagine going through the actual place. During a short stay in the cities, I walked exactly the same routes as I had virtually and recorded sound with binaural microphones to capture the spatial atmosphere. In the last step, the recording was added to the video, merging different layers of time and space as well.
