Domain 2007 – the annual public art project funded by the ACT Government, managed by the ANU School of Art, curated by Cathy Laudenbach – locates ten public art projects in and around Alinga Street, in downtown Canberra. Artist Peter Vandermark started with a series of anagrams for “Alinga Street”, which he’s programmed into a Coates Hire signage system.

Just for the record: they are my anagrams. The machine was programmed when Al sent me his list of 68, which included ‘stare at nigel’ that I didn’t have.
Several last minute calls to Coates and one of the frames was dropped to include it.
The VMB’s can run nine frames per sequence. A second sequence will kick in on Friday 9th.
cheers,
