Part 2:

Telematic Stroll – Neighborhood and going home (cont.)

Posted by Joan Li on Monday, 6 November 2017

I collaborated with Joan in this telematic stroll project. It was quite an experience having to do things simultaneously and having to synchronise with each other. Usually having people doing things together on the first space is quite challenging since everyone is just so busy in their lives. Coming together to do things together in the third space is even more challenging since we had to synchronise without any practice at all.

There is 2 parts to the video because my phone died half way through the live feed. It was my fault as I did not check my phone’s battery before going live. I have learnt that all times I need to make sure my phone is fully charge so that when through a live feed (which drains lots of my battery especially using data) I would not have disappeared halfway through. Having said that, the experience of filming the east and the west side of Singapore was quite interesting since we get to see different side of Singapore HDB and also our house. It was as if we are in the same house doing the same thing at the same time. Even though there was hiccups and technical problems when we were doing the live video on Facebook, I enjoyed the process.
