The memory radio: exhibit at JAAGA shanti nagar, Bangalore


Concept note:
24 Sep 1995, Plague Outbreak, Surat











                                             
                                         

This piece consists of a radio and a set of 3 pictures. The viewer is supposed to turn the knob on the radio and tune to different memories that i have used to tell the story of how the plague affected my ancestors and me.

Some reviews: 
"Intriguing and effective as a storytelling tool, i like the mix of the family narrrative with a public instrument such as the radio"

"Great work! I really liked the interface.The radio sets a great mood and the tuner just creates that mystery that prepares the listener for whatever he/she is about to hear"
