Designing a possble game
I have been collecting the Volkskrant newspaper since the 19th of september 2005 as a way of keeping in touch with what is going on in the other world and planned on doing something with it.
I have been looking at the images in the newspaper and imaging what the stories could be about and the funny thing is that when I finally read the stories they sometimes do not tally with what imagined. So I decided to pick some images and text that rises a certain interest with things that I am interested in. Using the newspaper images and stories as a starting point I decided to pick up some of the subjects and act it out in a public space and the beginning act in public space will be documented as a photographic image. The photographic image that will be presented will just be the an image that shows in one way or the other my proposal to the general public (e.g. an image of me standing in the Dam square with a poster saying "I am here to polish your shoes" and I would have my polishing tools by myside).
On the day of the presentation I would like to invite a journalist that works for maybe the Volkskrant newspaper and maybe some one that decides or works for immigration office and I will be there to dicuss and debate with the invited guests the stories/images from the newspaper and the image/situation of my experiences in the public. The stories I will tell will true or false but it is a way to provoke the discussions on different levels.
The Photographic images are there to be a proof that I was really there and went through this experiences with the public.
In a way I am interested in creating a talk show on how systems function and also opening up as aspect on personal experieces in relation to a system that goes according to laws and regulations that some times do work or do not.
