10.9. – 13.9.


The exact time and place of the performance will be announced later.


Participation

The performance imitates an architectural tour. It will take place mainly outside, so dress according to the weather.

You can participate in the guided tours or walk the route independently. The audience will listen to the audio through their own smartphones and headphones, the physical guided tour will be silent.

It is also possible to listen to the audio without attending the tour, or listen to the audio and walk the tour independently. Please note that the audio is in Finnish.

This performance is not recommended for children who are younger than 12 years. The performance includes depictions of potentially disturbing fictional historic events.

Languages

Finnish (audio and text) and English (text).


The students from Art and Media Department of Aalto University will carry out diverse projects, interventions, performances and exhibitions in public spaces.

The History of Alternative Futures is an audio play and a fictive architecture tour in a future that has already become the past and after that, history. What would happen, what kind of information would be recorded and what kind of history would be written from the recorded information?

This project is part of a long-term collaboration between ANTI Festival and Aalto University, in which the festival serves as a platform for a course in artistic research.
