A sharing of hello!earth work and approach with video traces and experiences of past projects in Brazil, Copenhagen and Jerusalem and recent experiments in Bangalore. Their participatory performances in public spaces deal with a shift in relation and perception and ask the open question of what reality is and how reality is created? They are an ongoing exploration into experience and city space.
This talk focuses on the shift in perception as a catalyst for social action and shares recent experiments of the we are here project in Bangalore by Archana Prasad and Vera Maeder, an artwork using phone and sms as a tool for creating awareness and re-designing relation in an urban context.
