The Desert

Action Station #2 - The Desert is the second in the five-part echo::system series of multi-media immersive environments by GRISHA COLEMAN.

Referencing the practice of the Aboriginal Walkabout as a metaphor, the idea of the 'interface' with the land is explored to activate memory and acknowledge the effect of human action on the environment. It becomes obvious that this tribe has a woefully inadequate understanding of their past culture, its connection to their present state, and their relationship to the land they traverse -- as they have brought treadmills with them to walk in one place.
