Save Me: a Conversation Across the City

A Search Party Project
£14.95

For two hours each day, for 11 days during Mayfest, Bristol-based performance duo, Search Party, spoke to each other across the reaches of Bristol Harbour, using semaphore.

Save Me now returns as a book, both as a reflection of a remarkable few days in spring, when a very simple act of performance enveloped a part of the city with its striking representation of the struggles of distant connection, but also as a celebration of the contribution of passers-by who wrote of their own feelings of love and separation on little yellow tags, that became the backdrop for the event.

Search Party want to share these yellow tags and, perhaps, in the process, a few more thoughts on the acts of coding and decoding that occur in our daily acts of communication.
