Ready Steady Learn w/ Kirsty McNeil: August 8, 2017

Kirsty, who is finishing her postgraduate studies at Elam School of Fine Arts, talks to Mikey about daily commutes and how these become automatic - often ‘edited’ out of our life’s stories. When we reflect on our day, we usually omit the ordinary journey backwards and forwards between locations. Kirsty began filming this part of her life, referencing the early genre of film known as ‘phantom rides’ – where a camera moves through space as a first-person view, allowing an audience to experience the journey through their own eyes. How do these explorations feed in to her current works? And can we have a look too, please?
