When I think of us, it sounds like...

What does friendship sound like? A laugh, a shared idea, a late night conversation, a muffled embrace? ‘When I think of us, it sounds like…’ is an audio visual journey exploring the complex landscape of friendship and how we remember, document, expand, abstract and stretch it to uncover shared truths. 

Through a process of simultaneous recollection, line by line unable to hear what the other is saying, we rebuilt a memory to create a new artefact ritualistically passing a ¥50 coin. 

Pulling from remembered objects and an archive of photos and voice memos, we fragment them into a visual world that mimics the nature of how we remember. From this emerged The Gap. A fluctuating space that reveals the dissonance between our memories, truth, and our perception of it. The Gap exists in all facets of life and our relationships, and we aim to explore how to bridge it, fill it, empty it and sit in it’s dissonance to find comfort in what we all experience.
