Your Ghost Body is a memory palace in the form of a playable junkyard. Its genesis was an inquiry into the way I carry the landscapes of childhood and adolescence with me as a psychic possession and the question of what to do in middle age with the vestigial homing instinct for a place I no longer inhabit. What emerged was the visitation of three avatars – two of my own childhood, one 9 and one 17, and one of the me who was writing and remembering, 45, laid out in three landscapes played as levels in the junkyard. Its form is a point and click video game interspersed with songs. The video game will be accompanied by Companion Piece, a spoken and sung performance text sourced from the same raw material as the game.
