whats in the box
TRANSCRIPT
Was a project that was started to challenge the idea of how we perceive the anonymous box in our society today.
What’s in the Box?
The reason we started the project was originally because of another idea we had of people interacting with funny boxes. But we always got comments on how nobody would touch a box.
People are terrorized by their own fear. So we wanted to make people think about
what or why they were afraid.
We had two FedEx boxes that we tied some string around and wrote:
“Are you scared?” “Why?” “I am not a bomb” “I am just a box”
* And here we are putting the boxes…
Tourists laughed Germans photographed Americans called the cops
* Just Some Boxes without The Box
* Just Some Boxes with The Box
* Some Person Who Wants To Buy The Box
The reactions became like a kind of mirror to the society or the world's state today. You can't put boxes or luggage around unattended. The scenery has changed how it is being precieved i.e. the box on top of the boxes in a present store is ok wheil a box with a message is not if it has a string around it.
