The Eye of the Storm is a great big video art project. One hundred and fifty people from around Brum  (including Clare Short) were interviewed to discover each’s individual attempts to “manage the stresses of modern living and find calm within the storm”.

Next year, the Birmingham stories will be incorporated in an outdoor digital art installation in Birmingham City Centre. Inspired by the way groups of starlings fly together, Director Marc Silver will incorporate images of birds to suggest more collaborative ways of living.

You can contribute, making your own piece and uploading it to YouTube — instructions on the site.
