Polaris: Porsgrunn

warren-crow+warren-crow’s object was featured in their creation “Polaris: Porsgrunn” at the Porsgrunn International Theater Festival (Norway, June 2014 This is an ancient flashlight found underneath the seat of a truck in Norway. It was lent to us by the father of a curator who organized the festival, and was used by an audience member for a play illuminated by viewers. When we look at it, it reminds us that technologies of vision can turn making (and living) into a zero sum game. We are ashamed to be the ugly Americans who forgot to return it.

They use appropriated text and composed soundscapes to investigate the processes of mediation in various milieux—from early 20th century science to early 21st century celebrity scandal culture.
