1.a) Poster proposing 'Floodlit Platform':




1.b) Extract from 'Floodlit Platform - a short story before the event':

"The floodlit platform sings empty at dusk. Glaring bulbs fix your gaze to its glaring surface, a void shouting anticipation. This is space turned on, amplified to the hilt. It wants your slightest gesture, to trigger its feedback, its screaming noise and full bodily vibration, its infinite network of contacts to the surrounding universe. All this against a drunken alpine backdrop in a northern Italian town."

"La plataforma luminosa canta vacía en el crepúsculo. Luces cegadoras fijan tu mirada sobre su superficie brillante, un vacío gritando anticipación. Este es espacio vivo, creciendo y amplificándose al máximo. Quiere tu gesto leve, para comenzar la retroalimentación; su grito ruidoso y repleto de vibraciones corporales, su infinita red de contactos con el universo alrededor. Todo contra una tramoya alpina, borracha, en una ciudad del norte de Italia."
