The experiment explores the problems of new and old ways of

communication that link art and media in an age where information

can be created and shared by anyone using social media and personal broadcasting.

The bass sounds and movements generated by the vibration alarm of

two phones and a modulated hunting horn, some of which sink into

areas barely audible by humans, allow a kind of seismic communication practiced by elephants. The explicit social behavior of these animals and that of drunk people is exploited here; distinct club sounds, pounding noises, simple bass lines and deep growls are supposed to attract them in droves.

Different communication systems that are simultaneously used and disturbed raise the question of the goals we pursue by addressing or calling each other. Symbols and codes from hunting, such as ‘Bruchzeichen’ made out of branches to communicate among hunters are addressed to a specific group of recipients. Even the infrasound-like singnals, which are not perceptible by everyone are excluding certain groups from the communication and are directed only to insiders. At the same time, systems are subverted, things are misappropriated, vibrations / signals are absorbed by cushions and calls can not be answered. In addition, the signaler is blind to the surrounding situation. For the duration of the performance, he is exposed to a randomly generated Youtube playlist.

The installation includes topics such as post-truth and fake news, phenomena driven by the flood of random and fragmented information, and at the same time generating a volume that makes it increasingly difficult for us to communicate with each other, to understand the traps of commodification and identify facts and truth.

The question is how and for what we speak, and what happens to the prey.
