Fridge Magnets 

I made instagram magnets and they now sit on the fridge at the arts centre with a QR code which links to the website we built to document our artist in residence. I'm interested in embedding creativity into the day to day - creativity as a way of being in the world rather than an industry. I love the low fi and accessible nature of the means of production in the digital world.

Creativity is about how we live our day to day lives - it need not be separated from the mundane - it is embedded in the spaces we inhabit, the environment which surrounds us, the relationships we share and it shapes the very essence of how we perceive the world. QR codes and augmented reality allow us to layer creative, digitally housed perspectives over physical spaces. As we have lived amongst these images we have played music, written poetry, danced and explored what it means to be creative. We have embedded recordings, videos and photographs into the spaces within which they were created, as well as in the world wide web. In this way the primacy of physical spaces is maintained while still making use of the disembodied digital. If you would like some fridge magnets from this series let me know and I will post you some :) You can also have a look at the whole series by searching for #artistinresidencealbanywa on instagram.
