BIO

Petra Milički (HR), is a media designer-artist currently based in Rotterdam. Her work and research topics range from the collaborative "hacking" of exhibition systems to the theoretical, political and social implications of the changing politics of memory and monumentalization. Her methods mainly revolve around the interpretation of collectivly produced found material (offline or online), and the facilitation of participatively made content.

ABSTRACT

A lecture-performance inspired by the specific context of the former Yugoslavia, and the phenomenon of social behavior on YouTube, which has developed to the point where pop music videos serve as monuments, triggering emotional reactions that span from nostalgia to fierce political divisions. The topic invites us to consider the more general theme of memory politics in the post-broadcast age. The installation makes a monument to the past lecture.

SPEC

(if possible) a space within the gallery (not the one where lectures are usually held) where audience can sit and listen to the lecture, and where the lecture materials (overhead projector and othe props) can stay exhibited
an overhead projector (or maybe 2)
a microphone
speakers
