Telegraph is an interactive installation that experiments with the graphic communication that happens in public toilets. Public toilets are unique creative spaces for communication, essentially public but private at user’s request for a limited time.
This temporary privacy encourages to perform diverse activities, alone or in company, among which is the expression on their walls of whatever we please under a safe anonymity.
Appropriating this particular communicative situation, Telegraph connects the wall of a public toilet with another of a bar or other communal area of the same building, so everything that is physically drawn (with ink pen) on a wall is shown in the wall of the other in real time.
With Telegraph is established real-time visual conversations that extend the graphical dynamics of baths beyond its walls, creating new collaborative storytelling and games among people who may or may not know each other.
