Under Influence in 24 Hours
A public 24-hour act of doing nothing: non-action is contrasted with external influences, reversing the roles within the context of art. In ILLUMINATED NOTHING, performer Emilia Vogt spends 24 hours in a publicly visible room doing nothing except basic life-sustaining needs like sitting, standing, drinking, using the toilet, etc. Seven lights in the room can be controlled via an interactive website, called illuminatednothing.de. The performance is viewable on-site and via live stream worldwide.
