Invisible Flock are currently developing 3 new projects for 2012.

The first is Who is Ophelia, a city centre game with the Howard Assembly rooms. The project links to Katie Mitchell's 5 Truths exhibition and is a series of hidden video installations around Leeds city centre. The game plays out over text message and is contemporary reinterpretation of the story of Hamlet's Ophelia.

We are also developing Sea of Voices a commission from Lighthouse, Fabrica, Photoworks, Blast theory, Brighton Festival and the University of Brighton. Sea of voices is an interactive digital piece, consisting of an interactive audio walk and public art installations. Starting at Fabrica participants can embark on a walk that explores the mythologies and stories of the coast, the transit of Venus and notions of place and time. As participants sink further along the experience they will find themselves invited to look through a telescope or contact a light in the distance. Sea of voices is inspired by our attraction to the sea and the coastal histories that surround it and can be experienced as a group or as a solo experience.

Over summer 2012 we will be working on Sand Pilot with Live at LICA. Inspired by the Queen's last Sand Pilot Cedric Robinson, the man who guides walkers across Morecambe bay. The piece will explore notions of heritage, walking and looks at the role of the guide and protector in contemporary society. He is rumoured to be last man to be appointed to this post and as such his role is particularly poignant in the face of the erosion of our national coastal culture.
