Il Traffico
A project by Collective Intelligence Artists Group, this is part of 5x5x5 programme events of Manifesta 12.
Conventions and norms are best expressed and embodied in traffic. There, in traffic, crowds become amplified sonically and in motion and weight streets form nodes, networks, and bottle- necks. Particulars concerned with their own immediate surroundings, pulsating the city, but being in traffic is not merely a song of transportation. Mental states adjust to speed, awareness awakens and driving often is a state in which self- reflection and auto-poesia emerge.
To meet this urban bloodstream, Collective Intelligence artists look at how a meshed space for emerging relationships acts as a location for knowledge creation rather than product development or production.
