In Your Hands

Inspired by the Stanford Prison and Milgram experiments of the 1970s, Dash Macdonald places his fate into the hands of audience members by letting installation visitors remote-control the roller skates strapped to his feet.

Where he skates is determined by the person holding the remote. This spectacle, however, is meant only to divert attention from what’s actually going on—namely, a subversive social experiment that critically questions how far people are prepared to go in pursuit of their own entertainment.
