Drawing further inspiration from poet Arthur Chapman,where the west begins is also a place where "the bonds of home are a wee bit tighter". Honoring the cultural significance and legacy of Fort Worth,this piece aims to celebrate the people, places, histories,and dreams of the city that have been woven together over the years. In order to create a piece that tells this story, archival data is gathered from key libraries and museums, as well as city institutions and the community. Acknowledging that place and memory are directly linked, it is important to also take into careful consideration the physical environment and key buildings which physicalize the sentiment of home for many. Upon collecting this data,we can explore Fort Worth through the mind a of a machine, deploying machine learning algorithms trained on these data sets to visualize a consciousness of Fort Worth previously unseen. By projecting a final audio/visual performance onto the fatrade of Pioneer Tower,this project is a collective performance and journey into the imagination, memories and dreams of this unique and indeed pioneering town.
