'The installation for flatpack film festival was connected to a treadmill so you could re walk the route yourself on a treadmill and there was a map in the top corner of the projection screen so you could see where you were walking through Birmingham.'

Hi All,
Thanks Dee for mentioning the drawings made while running on treadmills. Amazing you found images on that old website! I had no idea people could even access that old thing. In case anyone got lost on the older one here is my updated website.The gym was in fact my studio for a number of years. Most of the drawings from that time (2003) were made while walking on a treadmill and watching the US invade Iraq via a TV at the gym in the Arizona desert.
There are also these works that specifically included treadmills:Drawing on Breath (working with a professional athlete)andClub Extra (participatory for museum visitors)
Other artist works I would recommend are:echoSystem by Grisha Coleman
Treadmill Powered Salt Walk in Second Life by Joseph Delappe
Hope this is helpful.Angela

Hi Blake.
Canadian artist Eryn Foster (copied on this message) has done several public projects that incorporate treadmills. Here is a link to one of them:

FRIENDLY REMINDER: if you click REPLY to this email, you will be sending a message to over 300 subscribers. Please do so only if you wish to respond to everyone.Is anyone aware of works of art where the audience is asked to experience the art by walking on a treadmill? I know artists like Nauman and Piscator have used treadmills in video or performance walking, but I am wondering if anyone has ever experienced an art piece by walking on a treadmill.
Part of my curiosity stems from the assertion that walking on a treadmill has the same creative benefits of walking outside, as argued in Oppezzo, M., & Schwartz, D. L. (2014) ‘Give your ideas some legs: The positive effect of walking on creative thinking’, in Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 40(4), pp. 1142-1152.
I am also wondering if moving through the landscape is a core resource in walking art and how treadmill walking art might counter this.
Any responses, thoughts, or leads on artists working in this way would be much appreciated.
