Peckham Street Training - Online networks of participation.
"Street Training is the art of constantly transforming ourselves and our
streets both collectively and individually...Street Training takes the
form of spontaneous small-scale happenings in public space and shows
that we can have an equally powerful effect on our surroundings with our
thoughts and behaviour."
'How do we behave to be joyful' and 'how do we behave to be safe in the
streets?' Through Street Training, Lottie Child asks these two questions
of urban people.
Furtherfield.org's part in Peckham Street Training has been to create an
online platform for Lottie Child's Street Training with a special focus
on the Peckham
group. As part of this commission by Peckham Space (a new commissioning
organisation for socially engaged arts in South London) we were
interested to think about how to translate the project in physical space
into online space and to connect the two. What would characterise the
paths of Safety and Joy for online participants?
