Passion5
vehicle: passion_cleaner
location: quarry near Tuttlingen, Schwäbische Alb
audio sources: May 1st demonstration slogans, voice
"Passion5" is a proposed manoeuvre for a passion_cleaner vehicle,
in this case a dredger construction and digging machine - equipped
with a set of large loudspeakers. Slogans shouted during the demonstrations
on Labour Day are claiming the right for freedom and the autonomy
of alternative political systems. These slogans are broadcast in an
unlikely setting where the passions appear out of place, raising the
question of political power, representation and agency in public spaces.
The performance "Passion5" originally took place as an artistic intervention
during the 'Late Shift' event series at the Puls 5 redevelopment site
in Zurich in November 2005. There the project presented
an atmospheric installation about different forms of passion:
the passion of political activism in street protests (passion_cleaner),
and the passion of scientific research, articulating playful curiosity
with systems of public order.
