3 Keys - The River Oracle with The Hexists is a game of chance and
divination in association with The Moving Forest, Act 0. It attempts to
invoke the relationship between the divinatory functions of our
contemporary 'influencing machines' (cybernetic systems and game theory
using data-mining, data profiling and data protection) and traditional
magical ones, creating new machines in the process. Using tools such as
cards, dowsing, stick throwing to interpret phenomena in the landscape,
historical and current, 'readings' can be cast, allowing associative
action, language and thought to determine what might happen in the
future, to create a path, an artwork.

In 3 Keys (version 3), participants will follow the Hackney Brook, an
old subterranean river that begins near Finsbury Park and ends up in the
River Lea near the site of the Olympics, using different exercises to
interpret the landscape and cast readings. We will 'mark' the route
along the way with objects and stories and other inscriptions. The river
is the oracle and we are the transmission. The documentation and
divination tools will be made available for display in the exhibition
after the event.

3 Keys - The River Oracle is also part of the Invisible Forces
exhibition at Furtherfield Gallery.
