Chop Your Own Wood has three levels of implementation directed at overlapping audiences.
1) Basic SMS. Via publicity in university magazines, on flyers & on signage at the front of St Barnabas audience members can text a number to receive a new sign exchange (both sides) everyday for the period of a month. Thus recreating in part the conversation. These will be sent out each morning in time to be recieved by morning commuters. Each afternoon peak audience members will receive texts containing part of the historical material. These texts will also include a URL that those with web enabled phones can click on to get to the second level of implementation. 2) Mobile internet. Via links in text messages, publicity & signage at the front of St Baranbas audience members can access the entire project in simple wap/xhtml or flash mode depending on handset configuration. The more locative element of this is that audience members have the option of using the bluetooth hotspot in front of St Baranabas noticeboard to download video interviews and sequences to phones. This material will also be formatted online for 3G phones to access anywhere. 3) Desktop internet. Those wanting to delve deeper into the entire project will be able to access the whole thing via a regular browser with a broadband connection. |
