The London Group: Weaving in the Dark

A collaborative audio-visual experiment by 32 London Group members and 2 hand-written computer programs.

For the last two years, The London Group has run the collaborative group show In the Dark. We were all set to run our third in January 2021 but, as with most physical shows over the last 12 months, it had to be postponed. Nevertheless, with the Group raring to work together, we decided do a collaborative experiment, combining digital photos, video and sound clips into the Smörgåsbord that is Weaving in the Dark. An incredible 32 members joined in.
