C o n c e p t

installation aims to think about the relationship between individuality and society in their reciprocal reflection, in our times.

Any subjectivity is the result of a dynamic of inclusion / exclusion of the others, of a renegotiation
of the subjectivity in relation to the social device in which we move in.
In other words, single people and society mirror one another.

The created “actor” moves through a sort of conceptual “system” formed by four areas:
1. the interactive-carpet area – mirror of the collective interaction in society
2. the touch-screen area – mirror of the individual interaction in front of a range of
subjects / choices at his/her disposal
3. the performer area – he is the mirror / interpreter both of the society and of the
single; he is the expressive incarnation of social interactions and individual
choices, but he is also the creator of a voluntary, as much as unpredictable
manipulation of information (“glitch”) coming from the “actor”.
4. the area of the screens – mirrors of the interaction between society, individuality,
performer and technical device.

SKETCH IDEA
This is Final Project of the D3D students. The theme given at the first place was "Mirror". The theme seemed to be very interesting and very easy to interpret but somehow for us is a bit too easy ! We also were given a chance to collaborate with a performer, Alessandro Carboni who is not only a dancer but a thinker, an analayzer. We have then thought a lot about neuron mirror, awareness, knowledge and power. Afterwards I have proposed a lot of ideas and at the same time the scenography of the performance

FINAL IDEA
It has atlast came to the final concept. The installation that reflects the relationship between individuality and society. Then I came across the name and logo of the project.. " We/Me" .. because they reflects each other. Without ME is without WE and without WE there will be no ME.
