3 day Group project in collaboration with Critical Writing students at RCA.
Our brief -
Project 5. Rurality Bites
In 2007, for the first time in history, more people were living in cities than in rural areas. If we imagine the migration and breeding patterns to continue exponentially, we can imagine a world, as Ballard did with his short story 'Billenium', where generations of citizens live only in cities. How might these future urbanites understand agriculture, farming, landscape, animals? How might they be educated or in what ways might they gain access to the areas beyond the outskirts?
Our response (inspired by Gwyneth Paltrow and jet lag!) -
We also had a talk from Tom McCarthy about a project he did called Greenwich Degree Zero which he did with artist Rod Dickinson
