Se01 Ep02_ The Electric Blue Bedroom
(8 May - 19 July 2020)
ABSTRACT:
‘The Electric Blue Bedroom’ is premised on the idea that our homes set the stage for moments of everyday performance.
The view into your neighbour’s yard, the play of shadows against your curtains, you singing to your lover via ZOOM... these are bits of everyday theatre that make our interior lives special. Share with us and celebrate the weirdly intimate and beautiful performances that we all bear witness to from our homes.
FORMAT:
In Ep02 we worked closely with select artists to create unique 360 video performances in an online environment titled ‘The Electric Blue Bedroom’

How is the resultant ‘publicness’ of our private spaces shaping our everyday interaction with the inside environments we live in, and what does this mean within an architectural landscape that is rapidly turning inside out?
We believe that the ease at which we make and share images is re-shaping the ‘domestic interior’ as we now it. Consider politicians addressing nations from their bedrooms, a pop star performing live from their lounge, or a generation obsessed with Houseplants. How is the interior world gaining new meaning for you?

As an arena of architectural discourse, we speculate that ‘the interior’ has uncharted room for discussion. Through global online participation ‘Inside <> Out’ aims to embrace a new dynamic of the domestic interior and, perhaps for the first time, represent and share the subtleties that make interior life so special.
