About the exhibition
Branching out from Guy Debord’s definition of “psychogeography” as “the study of the precise laws and specific effects of the geographical environment…on the emotions and behavior of individuals,” this exhibition looks at the use of digital tools in mapping the interplay between psychological states and urban environments. The participating artists are all using sophisticated technologies, from biofeedback to GPS, as a way to augment the experience of their surroundings, to record or map their passage through both physical and mental spaces.
