Helena Haimes Digital Artist


I wanted to put together a digital piece of work for street carpets - one that incorporated both still and moving image and that evolved according to the public's comments. Over the course of the two days, we had a fantastic range of responses from a range of ages. We filmed and photographed loads of your "visual comments" (pictures of architectural features and other elements of the space they are particularly keen on; film of people drawing their favourite buildings), which I continuously added to the display in the window of Mendip House.

There definitely appears to be certain architectural features that people are eager to see highlighted and well preserved in any future plan for the High Street - the tudor building that currently houses an estate agency, and the wonderful late Victorian frontage above Tesco Express were especially commented upon.

Here's a link to the video piece I put together from the images you supplied me with:
