Back at Uni now and i plan to post alot more and here's the first of them :) I am currently reading Contemporary Art and Memory by Joan Gibbons and it mentions the Murmur project, that began in Toronto, but my favourite is Edinborough.
The project envolves walking around the town and discovering numbers to phone, when you phone the number you are then told a memory about where you currently are. It's almost a more personal tour guide of the town as some are historical and others just quirky. I found it an interesting approach to memories within places and how to portray it to others. Here's the link to the website where it goes into more detail and you are able to listen to the memories from each town.
