May what I do flow from me like a river, no forcing and no holding back, the way it is with children.
Rainer Maria Rilke
In September 2011 Swiss artist Roman Signer joined Deveron Projects to develop and screen his new work Transmissions from the River, constructed on Huntly's River Bogie.
A camera, fixed on to a wooden cross-like structure, was strung from the local bridge and floated out into the river. From the bobbing structure the camera recorded the movement of the water in the surrounding landscape, while its imagery was transmitted live to a nearby shop. The work developed from an early memory of the artist, who lived next to a river as a boy.
