Since the beginning, my work has been always focused on trying to "rethink" social context, trying to ac*vate the viewer gaze for
not only in a esthe*c way, but also in a ideological.

• A few days before the 25S ac*on, the government announced that over 2,000 police would barricade the Congreso during our planned protest. The move made it impossible for us to achieve our goal, at least by land. So we organized the Discongreso. We decided to turn those colorful dots into discos (Spanish for “Frisbees”) and see if we could try by air.
• Through social networking, we asked people to get Frisbees and write their own ideas for our democracy, or rather for a poli*cal system worthy of the name “democracy.” When September 25 came around and I saw hundreds of people with their marked-‐up Frisbees ready to be tossed at the Congress, I couldn’t believe it. Boys and girls, people young and old: all types were there, slinging Frisbees with slogans like “People first,” “Ban the debt,” and “No bankers will ever govern a country again.”
• Throwing Frisbees, hearing people shout and watching them launch Frisbees towards the Congress, I realized that my own problems were shared by many others. Seeing those discs fly over the police was a perfect metaphor for the current situa*on in Spain, where democracy is truly in the air.

How to carry out a project based on a coherent process between the theore*cal research and ar*s*c prac*ce, through the provision of a par*cular device that directly affects the working method, at the same *me that reflects my posi*on in certain issues which are strongly influenced by the current context as the essence of the work;
-‐ the (re) presenta*on of the informa*on and communica*on society through the direct use of social networks for the project gesta*on and development -‐the importance of open source programs
and concepts such as; -‐the denial authorship -‐the horizontality -‐the democra*za*on of art -‐the collabora*ve, etc..
