As a simulator of the imaginary, Alt nå is guiding you through your own imagination, seeking to emphasize the notion of being singular plural in an interpassive system of textual, auditive and bodily movement material. As in an audio-guide in a museum, a tourist guide in a city or a meditation guide at the office, every audience member is presented with individual text through headphones hanging from the ceiling.
Imagine closing your eyes. The world is disappearing behind your eyelids and getting dark and still for a moment. Picture yourself in a room. A fairly large room, with a high ceiling and plenty of floor space. Imagine not being alone, but that just like you, others are sitting. In rows with their eyes closed. Listening. If you open your eyes, everything may have changed. Colors, shapes, and sensations may have swapped places and nothing is like it used to be.
