Smarter Digital Realities (SDR) is a project conceived and conceptualised by
Sandbox Collective in collaboration with the
Goethe-Institut / Max Mueller Bhavan and curated by
Padmini Ray Murray.
SDR invited select participants from
four Asian cities - Bangalore, Dhaka, Mumbai and
Pune - to reflect on digital change and its impact on urban life.
The two phases of the project comprised of a series of on/offline workshops, involving inputs from facilitators/experts from
India, Dhaka and
Germany, and encouraged participants to reflect on their relationship with the urban and to frame how experiences of the city have increasingly been mediated by the digital - at scale, or for the individual.
SDR will
open up to the public with the
launch of the online showcase on Friday
December 3, 2021 on
Gather Town Online Platform.
The projects created by the residents, for the programme, will be displayed in a specially-created virtual environment. An immersive representation of a city, where iconic buildings of 4 cities (Bangalore, Dhaka, Pune and Mumbai) become your gateway into different parts of an online exhibition; where you can teleport yourself through an artist directory to look at different works.
The launch will be followed by
talks and
music performance between
December 3 and
5, 2021.
