Edinburgh Art Festival App: Watch the Water
20 August – 4 September 2011
An ambient audio work contemplating the gothic soul of the streets, and linking the galleries of the Edinburgh Art Festival.
Specially commissioned to coincide with our popular Art Late evening. Download our free iPhone app and collect hidden stories on your journey through the festival. Let the water lead you to unexpected places at the heart of the city and see the festival with very different eyes.
Centuries ago Edinburgh was built on a rock surrounded by marshes. Rain has never been far away. Water drains through the steep streets and finds its own level in the accumulated layers of the city. The continuous configuration of stories lingering just below the surface of the Edinburgh streets will be accessible for a few days only.
You can download Watch the Water FREE from the Apple App Store after 20 August.
Created by Coney, here represented by Digital Flapjack, Richard Evans, Richard Hammarton, Annette Mees and Sophie Sampson.
Commissioned by Edinburgh Art Festival
Produced by Trigger & Coney
