Signal Festival: Democracy?

We have a democracy. But what do we do with it now? Czech society has lived in a free state for 35 years. Has the perception of democracy changed over the years? And have we learned to live with freedom and democratic values in that time? We can agree, but also contradict each other. We can be intimidated, but we can also be intimidated. We say a lot of words, but a lot more are said to us. We splinter into groups, but we can also come together. Is that confusion? No, it's democracy. It's got a lot of problems, but we haven't come up with anything better. The visual component of the sound installation is based on the concept of color psychology, which focuses on the study of the effect of color on experience and, consequently, on the entire human organism. Through these described principles, we give the individual lines their colouring, which changes dynamically in relation to the content of the message. It evokes emotion, mirrors the mood.

The audiovisual installation Democracy? was realized for the Signal Festival in co-production of Thanks That We Can and Signal Creative with the support of Radiožurnál, iROZHLAS.cz and the analytical institute STEM.

Where: CAMP (the installation is free of charge) Open: 19.00-24.00
