We try to be seen by making ourselves heard.
We try to make ourselves heard by being seen.
What at first appears to be a game becomes a desperate attempt to be heard, to be seen.
Project sketch
Situation:
A microphone stand with a microphone that is placed too high and an amplifier with a loudspeaker stand in front of the state parliament in the Schlosspark in Stuttgart.
I keep trying to reach the microphone by jumping and standing on my toes to ask 'can you see me? The microphone catches snatches of words:
can
can you
you
you see
see
see me
me
can you see
you see me
can you see me
