Each module was a story told by one of twenty Mackay residents interviewed by CDP for the project. The youngest was 15 years old and the oldest, 97. <\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/46665264\" width=\"950\" height=\"713\" frameborder=\"0\" webkitAllowFullScreen mozallowfullscreen allowFullScreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The system sensed visitor movement in the space to trigger replay of story modules in random order, avoiding any sense of repetitive looping. Transitions between modules comprised dozens of themed digital photos evoking personal histories and the different environments of the region.<\/p>\n<p>There were two audio systems in the space \u2013 one delivering the sound accompanying the stories, the other ambient sounds recorded in and around Mackay. <\/p>\n<p>The result was a richly textured multimedia experience conveying a strong sense of the local region, encouraging reflection upon its unique cultural and social histories.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size:11px\" class=\"alignright\">gary warner 2012<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>___<\/p>\n<p><strong>Services<\/strong><br \/>\nvideo interviews<br \/>\nphotography, audio recordings<br \/>\nmultimedia production<br \/>\ncreative direction<br \/>\ntechnical systems design<br \/>\ncommissioning<\/p>\n<p><strong>Contract Period<\/strong><br \/>\nAug 2002 \u2013 Dec 2002<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<\/p>\n<p> Artspace Mackay is a regional gallery centre in Mackay, North Queensland, designed by Cox Rainer Architects.
