DUET

Cultural Connections with Duet

2017 is set to be a major year of cultural exchange between the UK and India. To celebrate this, Quays Culture have co-commissioned an exciting new project which will run throughout the year, connecting the people of Greater Manchester and India in a new and intriguing way. DUET is an ambitious piece of work about finding space for reflection, expression and connection in our daily lives. DUET anonymously connects participants from the UK and India, allowing them to build a unique relationship with someone on the other side of the world for up to a year. Participants are invited to exchange details of their lives by answering one question a day through an app. Prompted by duet, a participant gradually builds a picture of their partner and their surroundings through shared messages.

The app is now live and can be downloaded for both iPhone and Android.

Tell us about your experiences of using the app on social media using the hashtag #DuetApp and see what else is going on during this year of cultural exchange through #UKIndia2017
