Paradigms Are Never Lost
Performance/Installation
Institute for New Economic Thinking
Axica Conference Centre
Berlin/D 2012
In 2012, Performer Stammtisch was invited to join the Paradigm Lost Conference of the Institute for New Economic Thinking at the Axica Conference Centre, next to the Brandenburger Gate: "About 300 scholars, students, journalists, and policy makers convene[d] in the eye of the European economic hurricane to reconsider conventional economic thinking." (Website) In the eye of the aesthetic hurricane that is Frank O. Gehry's architecture, Jörn J. Burmester, Florian Feigl, Anja Ibsch, Uwe Jonas and I created an interactive installation, performed and interacted with scholars, hedge fund managers, documentarists and retired policy makers over the course of several days. Economist Steve Keen thinking about my part of the installation ...which supposedly dealt with chaos: Video. |
