15/11/2010 Translocated – call for entries now OPEN
Translocated is a new platform for research and artistic practices centred around urban space and the interface between spatial reality / imaginary. The purpose of Translocated is to encourage experimentation, exchange, reflection and discussion across artistic practices dealing with space and psychogeography.
Translocated is currently seeking contributions from artists whose work engages with cities and the spatial imaginary, across a wide scope of forms and practices that embrace, question and enrich our understanding of and relationship to urban space.
For more information and to download a call for entries, please visit Translocated.org or get in touch by email at contact [at] translocated [dot] org.

02/12/2008 URBAN EARTH: LONDON
URBAN EARTH is a project to (re)present our habitat by walking across some of Earth’s biggest urban areas. The media distorts the way we see our world(s) with stereotypical images highlighting the most extremes of places. URBAN EARTH aims to expose what our cities really look like away from the bias and spin of commercial agendas.
