You Are Not Here proposes a persistent game of urban tourism through the streets of New York. Or is it Baghdad? Or even both?
Offering the participants a map with NYC printed on one side, and the Iraqi capital on the other, the result is a mashed-up version of both cities when looking through the light (the image on the right shows a sample of the resulting paths).
This new map indicates specific placemarks of Baghdad tourist destinations in New York. Sites such as the Republican Palace or the Shaheed Monument can be visited locally, where the contemporary tourists will find You Are Not Here signs indicating a telephone number that provides site-specific audio tours.
According to YANH's creators, by providing a fragmented tourist experience they provoke a critical view of urban space and it's subjection to media and politics. A project much like the urban games developed by the Situationists in the 60s, who attempted to breach the "functional city" in order to escape The Spectacle.
YANH was presented at Conflux this past weekend, a festival for contemporary psychogeography, and is also scheduled to happen during the Come Out & Play festival, September 22-24.
