Mobile Studio: Display for a Display
Dreamspace is proud to announce the first ever solo-exhibition of the London based architecture & design studio, Mobile Studio.
Founded by architects Max Dewdney and Chee-Kit Lai, Mobile Studio has developed an internationally recognized and award winning practice. For the exhibition Display for a Display Mobile Studio will re-visit their archive of works and present four major projects alongside new works developed for the exhibition in a context of public accessibility and critique. The works represent their ongoing research into the fields of public engagement and institutional display typologies and the exhibition aims to place the designs and the city inside one other in the contested public/private space of the gallery. Display for a Display will bring together Mobile Studio's commissioned work for museums and galleries, not as static items but as active display strategies, each housing historical and new objects relating to an exploration of the idea that the space (and design) of the archival museum is an extension of the living city rather than a removed space of abstract analysis.
The exhibition will focus on the idea of the user’s perception as a site-specific entity which alters in relation to its surroundings. Each display system in the exhibition is designed as a temporary and flexible exhibition structure to allow for museum collections to be accessed by diverse publics in varying on-site and off-site locations. By making the Museum portable, and taking it out into the city the possibility for wider engagement is proposed in which objects, viewers and sites are placed in a new relationship to each other.
A programme of public and private events will further investigate notions of engagement design through direct interaction with diverse audiences and will act as research sessions, informing Mobile Studio's future practice.
The exhibition has received some financial support from the Architectural Research Fund (ARF) at UCL as part of a design research project.

Presentations today
Hello All,
Well done on the presentations today. I hope that you feel that they went well and that you were happy with presenting your ideas.
I think there's lots of mileage in this project and we'll be able to explore how it goes next week after Chris and Judy have been able to discuss and mull over the concepts.

Well I finally got on, tried my personal email and it must be that one I'm using... the separation between personal and professional is smaller than it used to be I suppose.
Here's a pic from the game on Sunday. It was a useful experience although one I won't be repeating. I also watched the oral history DVD yesterday so am feeling quite immersed in the project.

Scenes from the game on Sunday 4th March 2012
They may make you appreciate the art of the sports photographer!
I enjoyed seeing the work you showed us yesterday morning - keep at it and make sure that you document all ideas so that they can be shown - even if they are the ones that you choose not to go with in the end. Remember, don't rein yourselves in at this stage - that can come later, if necessary.

SOUND, exhibitions and heritage experience.
We are all becoming aware of the need to record voice and other environmental sound for archive purposes.
It may be worth looking in to the existing use, and potential use, of sound within the exhibit your are developing a proposal for.
The following sites/discussions/samples may be a starting point:
