Biggest Visual Power Show
NEXT NATURE Visual Power Show 23 june 2006, Coalwash Building Zollverein, Essen Germay
LOOK A POWERSHOW PICTURES or WATCH THE 45 MINUTE VIDEOCOMPILATION
The Biggest Visual Power Show is an intellectual show that blends between a conference and a pop concert. The show represents a field of mixed cultural disciplines where we present visionairy statements, radical ideas and powerful imagery.
The Powershow 2006 has the topic of Next Nature. Our established view on nature needs reconsideration. How do we look at next nature? Highways, airports and supermarkets are part of our natural environment. The media are dissapearing, nature takes over. The things we design end up designing us. Over twenty Artists, philosophers, designers, filmmakers and politicians gave a five minute presentation.
