S ECTI VE – hol’-os
[hol’-os] is a sequel to our performance [ˈdaːzaɪn]. We are reflecting on how we as communities respond to the way we increasingly interact with each other through devices, machines and media and how this ‹processed› information changes the way we perceive the world and the people around us. Recent events have accelerated the shift from direct human interaction towards virtual and digital communication. These changes can not only have profound effects on our physical and mental health, but also separate us from the people around us and make it harder to communicate sensitively and compassionately.
