Politics of Seating 2023
in collaboration with the design project Hybrid Occasions at UdK Fashion
Show, University of the Arts Berlin, Integer Programming

The question arises if stage and space can be imagined in ways that level and amplify the experience for the audience overall, eroding the spatial hierarchies.
