Rehearsing the Revolution
CONCEPT, VISUAL LANGUAGE
Rehearsing the Revolution is initiated by art collective SPACE.
The project facilitates a model supported by fictional storytelling and gamification. Each party will play in search for common ground and set up a roadmap with scenarios for the future in which Deep Economy is established. It provides different parties new narratives to engage in.
The design for the visual language is inspired by organisms shifting their positions, searching for new ways of thinking.

Did not take place
VIDEO INSTALLATION
Did not take place is a two-screen video installation, in which a narrative is visualised using a smartphone interface. Experienced by the visitor on didnottakeplace.com. Using this particular intimate medium produces an immersive experience.
The project corresponds with the visitor's Western worldview towards conflict orientated news items. And researches how the smartphone user responds to contemporary news topics, which collide with personal, software and hardware notifications.
The narrative of the project is set in a suggestive scenario taking place in 2021; inhabitants flee the Netherlands. Using the interface of the main character, the visitor experiences her uncertainties and displacement.
Named after a collection of three short essays by Jean Baudrillard: The Gulf War Did Not Take Place.
