TRACKINGSHOT investigates frontier spaces through art practice and cross-disciplinary research.
Trackingshot.1 Desert Sessions took place in the California Mojave Desert in April 2017
Over two weeks live artworks were broadcast daily from A-Z West directly to viewers desktop/mobile device as a transmitted interruption. Associate collaborators Chris Fite- Wassilak, Ellen Mara De Wachter and Jonathan Griffin contributed texts in response. All artworks and essays are archived and freely available via this website.
