light installation // Nočna izložba Pešak, Metelkova Mesto // 6. 6.–4. 7.
OPENING: Monday, 6th June, at 21.30

 

 

»I'd like to talk about spiritualism. I come from the fields of science, technology and media, and I'm fed up with them, so I'd like to explore something completely different. But I'm still familiar with science and I like it when bold claims are supported by hard evidence.

Fine, then, good evidence for the spiritualism, presented in a way that a random passerby would immediately grasp. Simple, even naive ideas about the ghosts of dead people that live in the afterlife, and some magic tricks to 'prove' it. Sounds great. I present thee the five pieces of evidence, or, five ways of talking to ghosts. Come and convince yourselves! Maybe one of the ghosts is your late grandfather who has a message for you.« /Otto Urpelainen/
