"We live in a hybrid world where increasing use of mobile technology means that digital elements are embedded in everyday life and cultural participation. More people are creatively participating, and it is increasingly difficult to distinguish ‘artist’ and ‘audience’. Audiences expect to be able to insert themselves into the story of an artwork and to have access to multiple lines of communication – with performers as well as other audience members and participants." In Real Life: Mapping digital cultural engagement in the first decades of the 21st Century 2021, Australia Council for the Arts

Sharing films outdoors has an immediacy that sparks conversation, it is a campfire, a circle, that really excites me. The interrelationship between site and artwork, embedded on the street, in public rather than isolated on a small device, or inside a cinema or lounge room. Jacqui North.
