Abstract
This paper describes FWDrift [remix] and VJFleet [redux], both performative mobile artworks that fall under the Vancouver-based artist Julie Andreyev’s practice Four Wheel Drift. In these works customized cars equipped with audio, visual, and interactive technologies cruise the city, serving as hybrid forms seeking engagement with the urban environment. These works take up influences from popular culture. VJ / DJ cultural effects contribute as interventionist strategies that use the city as a canvas to identify and explore contemporary urban landscape through the use of a fleet of cars as mobile, interactive, and experimental platforms.
