REALITY SHOW
By Linards Kulless (Riga/Berlin)
I will stress the play aspect in my talk. It is a wish to play that has fueled my interest in different media: video, photography, painting, installation, new media, graphics, theater and design and encouraged to take on different institutional roles: artist, actor, manager, VJ, curator, TV host. During these years of activity I have developed, one might say, an esoteric philosophy of what it means to play, to change and to live. I will try to share it with you in the seminar Playing Chameleon.
