The Messenger
Paul DeMarinis (US)

The Messenger is an examination of the relationship between electricity and democracy as well as the influence of telecommunications technologies on our lifestyle. E-mails from all over the world are received by a computer and decoded by three output systems that actually constitute a historical reference to early experiments in transmitting messages via telegraphy: 26 washbasins with a different voice assigned to each one, a chorus line of 26 dancing skeletons, and a series of 26 electrolytic jars deliver short-lived read-outs of the electronic messages.
