Reading for fans. Series: The Performative Minute
Reading for fans is a performance by Hanne Lippard, which reflects upon the office environment as a potential Eco-system, in which nature is deployed by the human endeavor to seek success. Lippard shedds a critical light on notions of efficiency, progress and success and uses the To-do List as a metaphor to describe the underlying rhythm that drives the individual to maneuver through an environment in which exhaustion emerges. To-do, to-do, to-do might remind the listener of a wordless heartbeat - or recall an active command. (Photo: Hannah Cooke).
