Printer, ...
Performance
Wednesday 26 Nov
21:00 ‑ 21:30
Project Description
The printer is the most pervasive (and frustrating) example of technology that doesn't work in our everyday lives. Everyone knows the situation where a printer doesn't do what was originally intended with the print job.
Designers, listen! In this performance, joak will take a different path. joak will show several modified printing devices and how they can be used as a performative device. With this approach, printers are not understood as isolated technologies but as an instrument. Because after all, printing should be fun.
This performance is part of joak's longer research on why printers never work.
