HappyAcademyLifeAPA
What happens when you belong to a micro society that encourages certain opinions and discourages others? Does it influence your perception and formation of opinions, both on an individual and a societal level?
​
In this site-specific work, participants are instructed to listen to certain qualities in a conversation by way of eavesdropping via headsets in a canteen and report to the committee HappyAcademyLifeAPA through a group chat what keywords they have picked up. Interesting consequences result from the most mundane daily conversations.
If you're not good enough at eavesdropping yet, maybe you need to attend extra learning courses?
You are briefed on how to carry out your eavesdropping mission as spies, as a reward of your excellence in performance at the academy.
Targeted suspects who seem to have spread rumors in the academy.
​
Have you fulfilled your mission according to the committee's framework?
Maybe you need further learning opportunities to raise your sensitivity and hone your skills in eavesdropping!
