Skewerdriver: Synthetic myths // MOME Architecture Institute BA3 I Exhibition opening

In autumn 2021, fourteen third year MOME architecture students created fourteen different skewerdrivers at the Experimental Workshop class. Based on stories, writings, research or their imagination, they came up with full background stories for the fictitious ‘skewerdriver’, including its history, the location, era and society where it was used, and the rituals, roles, lifestyles and needs surrounding its invention.

The outcome was fourteen made-up items that might as well exist in reality, with made-up stories and histories that might as well be true. The items created and the myths around them carry various interpretations of reality and the past. 14 search results for the ‘skewerdriver’, and none of them are truer or falser than the next, all of them combine true and made-up elements that blend together indistinguishably in this exhibition. 

Exhibitors: EnikÅ‘ Balogh, Elvira Monti, Borbála Véghelyi, Oszkár Szelevényi, Dóra Veres, Anna Soóki-Tóth, Anita Halmos, Dorottya Füleky, Dorottya Lajcsik, Lili Gárdos, Lilla Czigány, Kristóf Lipótzy, Gábor Wallner, Zsuzsi Werk  

The exhibition is open to the public until 7 June 2022.

Working at the intersection of fiction and documentary, and stage and background, German film and video artist Julian Rosefeldt combines cinematography, architecture, theatre and literature in his installations. Particularly interested in the relationship between stage and background, the visible and the hidden, the original and the imitation, his films not only evoke social narratives but also reflect on the moving image itself being an archive, a factory of myths and an experimental space.

Az eseményen pszichológusok és terapeuták röviden bemutatják kapcsolódó tapasztalataikat, majd tematikus, kiscsoportos beszélgetésekre hívjuk a résztvevőket. A kiscsoportos beszélgetések fókuszában a VR-terápiák etikai, design- és hatásmérési kérdései állnak, például: Hogyan mérhető a VR-élmények hatása? Milyen etikai dilemmákat vet fel a virtuális tér a terápiában? Miként lehet a VR-t személyre szabni idős vagy sérülékeny csoportok számára?
