Doric is Calling
Doric is Calling aims to rejuvenate the use of Doric, the dialect of the Scots language from the North-East of Scotland, whilst also reinvigorating the disused spaces of phone boxes by creating an interactive space which invites users to regain pride in their mother tongue.
Ruthrieston Place, Aberdeen.
When the buttons are pushed, different videos of doric being spoken are projected onto the walls.
