Household Creatures perform Waiting for Godot from kanarinka - how did I miss this?

Household Creatures
An installation involving reams of marbled contact paper, dozens of household appliances, and white women’s shoes. The work was installed in the lobby of the building in a storefront window. A video camera captured reactions from the street audience and projected them inside of the installation. At the end of the installation, the Household Creatures performed “Waiting for Godot” by Samuel Beckett.

About Me

siobhan
Toronto, Ontario, Canada
I advise on the design of narratives in interactive environments, including screen-based works, in situ installations, online social networking sites, cross-platform projects, interactive short films, most recently an interactive graphic novel. In 2006/07 I was the narrative design consultant on Late Fragment, a feature film/dvd (CFC/NFB) & screened at Cannes. I have advised on over interactive 60 works many of which have gone on to win awards in Canada & abroad (Pax Warrior, [murmur], Painting the Myth). My position at the Media Lab has given me the ongoing opportunity to critically engage with the development of emergent forms in digital media & to test theory against practice. This spring, I mentored the Digital Development Lab in Vancouver. Research: function, design, & experience of narrative in interactive environments, the narrative potential of haptic interfaces & the future of entertainment in a cross-platform, Web 2.0/3.0 world; impact of interactive works in the context of Toronto’s arts fests, Luminato & Nuit Blanche.
