Background information
On March 25, 2020, just after the lock-down, we decided together with the artist duo K&A (Karla Isidorou & Alexandra Bellon) to continue their programmed workshop online. Imagination is an important quality of the arts (think The war of the Worlds by H.G. Wells -1906- ,George Orwels 1984 from 1948, both written during times of crisis). Project 8102, which the artist duo K&A has been working on for some time, also appeals to that imagination. It asks people to come up with scenarios for the future. The situation around Covid-19 raises the question of what the world would look like after the lockdown. This gave the K&A project a new urgency and a new reason to look for stories of the future. An exercise in free thinking in times of lockdown, curated by K&A and Dennis Gaens (Radio ArtEZ).
8102 A collective statement out of the future
8102 is a form of collective thinking and writing the future. K&A also put together the project in written form: it brings together the sentences of the participants to form one statement. ‘If a crowd is “smarter” than a single person, could a collective and or curated text not be a stronger, more inclusive and more complex way of voicing the world?’
