New Ideas CityHello Museum

Unquantifiably Infinite [Unknown] Unknowns

Three distinct locations—New York City, Porto, and Istanbul—will be connected over the course of four hours. During this connection, guests are invited to take part in a game designed to reveal the hidden potential in strangers and everyday objects. The In Real Life (IRL) and remote participants will give each other predetermined “challenges” within protocols of play such as leading songs and drawing on the wall. Through a directed exchange of skills, thoughts, ideas, and personal stories, a hidden and previously-unknown wealth of shared human experience and knowledge will come to light. The game is designed to allow guest responses across all three spaces to shape the experience and final outcome. UI[U]U is influenced by the the concept of the Buddhist Four Noble Truths, Jacques Rancière’s The Emancipated Spectator, and the work of Roy Ascott.
