open invitation to a project

January is an altogether depressing month, but the advantage of staying home with a cold is that you get plenty of time for reflection over future projects. My mind is set on something i would like to call "Cloudy weather"- a digital cloud project with several internet users sharing a dropbox, where they store all kinds of files: images, audio tracks, texts, video clips, what not. And the starting point is real Icelandic ash clouds that sabotaged infra-structure in the same way soundcloud, aviary and other horizontal programs challenge commercial music market. We'll be dealing with textoids, audioids, videoids ( sorry for clumsy neologisms)as long as we have access to each others' files and can make changes, add own material, transform, etc. across the borders of authorship. So, it's Icelandic ash, microscopic images for music making, the chaos it caused. Things are still very fuzzy, but no matter where you are, come forward.

My friends, aren’t we all? I believe that the mission is LOVE. Kärleken.

I need to know more about it.
And my friends I believe together we can find out more.

I believe we can share our inner love, and show our inner selves, by meeting and sharing, and with the help of youtube.com.

Becasue we e are humans made for loving we can communicate, with sounds and images, my friends -

CONTRIBUTE TO THE GOSPEL OF LOVE MY FRIENDS.

AND BE A WITNESS - A WITNESS OF LOVE!

Use the power of youtube.com to make us feel what you feel.
Choose a video clip that shows us how the LOVE feels to you.
Use the video as a backdrop to your story.
Then tell us how it makes you feel.

THE QUANTUM POLICE @ DKTUS, Stockholm



Per Hüttner in collaboration with Jean-Louis Huhta - curated by Anne Klontz
Performance – Saturday 4 December kl 19




“There is an invisible and little known force amongst us called ‘The Quantum Police’. They operate internationally and assimilate unnoticed into civilian communities. Their actions strive toward renegotiating the relationship between individual and society and claim that the law, morality and reality are all unique to the inner self.”

For the event at DKTUS, artist Per Hüttner will create a performance based on an anonymous woman’s role as a QP mediator and will include her entire transcribed interview along with videos and music played outside the gallery’s courtyard. In collaboration with Hüttner, musician and DJ, Jean-Louis Huhta will perform using a unique musical score created by Charlie White, an artist who in the late 80s developed a series of performances he called “Interviews” based on conversations with QP founder Johnny Ross. White believed that over time, Ross lost sight of the true meaning behind QP and therefore wanted to re-establish his voice as the strength of the movement. White added a soundtrack to the interviews which were then re-interpreted by a DJ as White performed wearing an LAPD uniform and using materials like glass sheets, halogen lamps and vinyl texts.
