Yet Another Narrative

Yet Another Narrative

Yet Another Narrative is an audio-visual piece to be used on a hand-held device at the Foundling Museum in London. The audio track guides the visitor throughout the exhibits, short animations appear on the device screen at specific moments of the tour. The work questions the seemingly objective, authoritative voice of some audio tours by weaving into the narrative a subjective, intimate voice. It explores the role of memory, fiction and affect in constructing meaning in museums. The interaction between on-screen images on the handheld digital device and the museum space creates yet another narrative that critically engages with the collection.
