If I produce less and less meaning, could something happen near a zero point, in relation, in suspense, in silence? Some kind of now. Perhaps only illusions of our own expectations, perhaps just silence. Will the learned gesture, a socially taught meaning, behavior or conventional reaction be discarded? Will the gesture be re-read, re-tagged?
The project invites local artists of experimental sound and artist of light design at each location to participate and create a unique work. The focus of performance is the relationship between the performers and their media of expression. The idea is to show movement, light and sound as they pervade through the inclusion of daily, cognitive contents into the body and allowing the body to release the information. The goal is to include and connect the local community in the work If I Play a New Game.

It appears as the ruler of Nothing, its goal is evoking efficiency. “Dieter Merch
