Palujüri, Estonia
Duration 4 hours (00:00 - 4 AM)

The post-human situation reflects a shift in an overall flux of communication in the context of high tech future. As direct contact belongs to the past, then present devices such as HTC/ i-Phones are used in order to create an exaggerated scene for a possible future, where mediation and isolation would be the key elements. Artists are packed (together with HTC / i-Phones) inside three separate pods, hanging 1.2 m above the ground. These shells bring out solitude in virtual infiniteness, that is, the prenatal metastasis, where the external reality has not yet been confirmed, having therefore potential to be whichever.
Conversation concerning space traveling and the new futu-human creation is held in skype and projected onto a public screen, where the audience could also interrupt and contact these pods through an operator (external observer) or by using their personal wifi connection and skype account.
