The month-long launch of this new edition of Path is accompanied by evening showings of Kate Armstrong and Michael Tippett’s Space Video in the front window of 15 East Pender.
Path is a 12 volume book with text generated by the physical movement of an anonymous individual living in the city of Montreal between 2005 – 2007. Each time this individual accessed the internet using public wi-fi over the course of this two year period they were tagged with a textual passage exploring themes of visual, personal, and spatial patterns as reflected in the lives of fictional characters. Accumulating over time these behavioral and technological points of contact come to form a pattern of language that both reveals and conceals a life lived in a city.
This exhibition launches a new edition of Path, which includes an audiobook version. The audiobook will be broadcast on UNIT/PITT Radio twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week during the duration of this show. Listening stations will be available during open hours (noon to 5 pm, Wednesday through Saturday).
