CANNED DREAMS


Zij zullen verzamelde statements,teksten en afbeeldingen gebruiken en aanbrengen op blikjes uit de automaten, om op deze manier de ambtenaren te verrassen bij het kopen van hun dagelijkse blikje fris

They will transform Coca Cola- as well as other soft drink cans into little objects/multiples. Civil servants will be surprised to find unexpected images, dreams or ideas on their soda, when they buy their daily drink from one of the several cold drink automates.

PRIVATE EXCHANGE

Daniela S proposed five civil servants the following:
She offered them to choose one out of five collages, which she has produced around the theme of DREAM_GARDEN, take the piece home, hang it in their living/sleeping room and bring her an object from their privat environment to take home as well. Both parties agree to live with those objects for a period of time. Daniela will end this project in the living room of each civil servant.

Three civil servants accepted, two rejected PRIVATE EXCHANGE.


SOUND_GARDEN (not realized)

Sound_gARDENS will be spread throughout Stadskantoor. The attentive listener will hear secretive little stories about people's dreams and desires, mixed with other sounds. DS will create little sound islands made from recordings from in- and outside Stadskantoor.

Er zullen verschillende Geluiden_tUINEN verspreid door het gebouw van stadskantoor ontstaan, de oplettende luisteraar zal het niet ontgaan:korte ,intieme verhalen van mensen die vertellen over hun dromen en verlangens gemixed met andere geluiden,een soort geluids eilandjes eigenlijk, gemaakt met opnames uit het stadskantoor en daarbuiten.
