SUMMARY:Talkaoke & WWTB at The Dutch Electronic Art Festival
DESCRIPTION: \nThe projects that are generated by The People Speak all have one thing in common: they get people to talk\, to participate\, to engage creatively. \nThe cornerstone of democracy is participation. In the current events of today we can see the highs and the lows: Elections can be bought or rigged\, but also people can rise up against injustices. Action is required; complacency is not an option. Democracy is fragile because it is demanding. \nIn this Evening Of… programme\, The People Speak will be talking about fundamental aspects of democratic action with guest speakers who have been active in the heart of the Arab Spring. Following a short round table discussion\, we will follow with Who Wants to Be\, the ask-the audience game show\, where the audience asks the questions\, comes up with \nthe answers\, and sets the rules. Using a visual voting system and digital ideas pad\, a large audience can brainstorm\, feedback\, and generate the most incredible ideas together. \nWho Wants to Be has helped audiences to decide how to spend the show’s entire box office takings\, how to renovate a much-loved public park\, and how to solve the world’s climate crisis. It’s a fun\, accessible recipe for micro-social change. It’s also a model of direct democracy in miniature\, showing us the problematics and potential of collective decision-making. \nJoin us to discuss the issues at hand but then also take direct action that could result in… just about anything! \nMore info on DAEF website \n \n  \n
