• Monument Public Address System is a multi-platform interactive documentary project centered around a growing collection of audio interviews about the past, present, and future of confederate and colonial monuments in the US. Two platforms are being produced to present the documentary narratives to the public. The first is a place-based augmented reality app accessible on participant’s smartphones and tablets. The second is an installation and musical performance. With this project, the artist aims to engender critical and thoughtful social experiences in public spaces through the presentation of narratives that offer truth and justice-centered perspectives, as well as anti-racist visions for our shared future.
