Gutter Bunny Definition: the cyclists you see cranking along the snowbanks every morning in January, huffing home sweating bullets in August, and pedaling off to work, come rain, shine and everything in between. … refer to themselves as. May have originally started as a disparaging remark mountain bikers used to refer to commuters as but it has now been accepted. (Urban Dictionary)
Project: Urban art installation bringing together themes of video and audio for a unique cycling experience. Cycle your way through a virtual landscape created by footage taken by everyday riders. Experience this perspective of slogging through the streets to find peace within the urban surroundings.
Breathe Denver and KMH Digital Creations have partnered with Denver Art Museum’s Untitled Exhibition Series 2010 to reveal this project.
A bike will reside in the gallery space pointed at a white wall or screen. Any spectator may jump on the bike displayed and start pedaling. This triggers the projection of the video we pieced together from head cam footage of riders around the world. As you ride the bike you will see video of different cities and get the feeling you are experiencing the ride yourself. The video is combined with motion graphics to paint a unique virtual landscape. Accompanied by a live DJ for audio effects to create a complete experience.
The rider has now transcended what it really is to be a Gutter Bunny. We hope to inspire and encourage a dialogue utilizing cycling as an alternative mode of transportation.
