Audio-Visual Installation @ the Design Walk Festival, Athens, Greece
Sound Design: Emmanouel Rovithis
Concept, Stage Design: the "I AM design, etc" team
The installation aims to show that all people are original and unique, while also similar ; they feuture special characteristics, while at the same are bound to the same social rules and structures.
All raw material for the audio works came from recorded interviews of people asked about issues, such as aging, religion, profession, origin, marital status, and sexual orientation. The visitors of the installation could listen to the main work through hanging headphones on a central platform. The walls of the room were covered by keywords, which were connected through threads, whereas hanging headphones were transmitting audio collages of the actual interviews.
