Why Not? Reality Show
By and with: Romy Schmidt, Alexander Hügel, Nona Siepmann, David Guy Kono, Rasmus Nordholt, Yung-Ju Tsai, Awa Winkel, Ogra (Habibi Tunis), Eufy, MSF Soundsystem Münster and 30 children and young people of the JugendChorZentrum Münster.
With the second work and the first multimedia performance WHYNOT? REALITY SHOW, WHY NOT? KOLLEKTIV moved in the narrow interstices of synchronicity and searched for the perfect draft of the future in the latency of everyday life.
The starting point for this project was the immediate concatenation of past and present, the conditions generated by it for a democratically designed future and the individual decisions possible for this.
Using the example of the colonial history of salt, WHY NOT? REALITY SHOW worked on the untold circularity of temporalities in the global north and their effects on humanity. In every attempt to synchronize rational processes with algorithmic, human and machine ones, errors arise and thus new individuals as well as collective spaces for action.
After having its premiere on the 13th of december 2019 in Theater im Pumpenhaus Münster, WHY NOT? REALITY SHOW opened the FAVORITEN Festival in September 2020 on the festival’s subject "While we are working”.
