Jake (Jacob William Bee) was invited by members of the Edinburgh's Proto Academy in 2004 to be a part of their exchange exhibition Span which was to take place in a long tunnel that runs underneath the road of the Deutzer Bruke in Cologne, Germany.
Jake very kindly asked me to work with him on the project. Initially he wanted to work with references from Philip Pullman's book "The Northern Lights" to make an instillation that played with dust through beams of light in the tunnel. This would have been totally awesome and we should still do it one day but we decided instead to spend our days scouring the city with a shopping trolley for interesting pieces of junk.
I recommend it as a great way to get to know any city you visit for the first time.
Meeting with other members of the Proto Academy.
