Rooms, meetings, hangouts, groups, stories, posts, email threads, voice notes. A Houseparty. These spaces are being named after physical ones. They are built on an internet connection and maybe a front camera. Flip cameras, apply filters, virtual background, mute, unmute, add other people to the chat.\n\nMoving through these online spaces, a voice that sounds human takes us through the streets, and we surf with it on the internet. As if we are commuting, from home to work. Join meeting. Leave meeting. But I am still sitting in the same room where I sleep. There was a moment in time when we would link up with others online just to pass time. Then, it became a necessity, to make up for our longing for any form of human connection. \n\nIs something troubling you today?\nWhat do you mean by going back to normal?\nYou say you miss seeing people?\nDo you often feel very conversational?\n\nA lecture-performance in three acts about how we used to interact with others through virtual encounters before, during, and after socially-distant times.","space":"The video work is a multi-channel piece. I prefer to have it projected in a large scale on three walls that envelop a seating area in the middle. The viewers then can be seated somewhere within that space for an immersive experience.  The sound needs to be projected using loudspeakers. The three videos don't work at the same time, nor in a regular sequence of 1,2,3 but it's possible that they are programmed to work in a certain manner with an overlap between two videos at the same time.","artists_proposal":null,"members":[],"lang":"es","status":"ok","video_link_password":null,"video_link":null,"audio_link_password":null,"audio_link":null,"images_link_password":null,"images_link":null,"cellphone":null,"description":null,"estimated_budget":null,"complementary_info":null,"names":"Engy","surname":"Mohsen","email":"engyymohsen2@gmail.com","dni_type":"PASAPORTE","dni":"A157392626","address":"37 Ramsis Street, Heliopolis","city":"Cairo","nacionality":"Egyptian","country_id":"68","birthdate":"1995-06-23T21:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1995-06-23T21:00:00.000Z","telephone":"+20 1276692796","web":"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/engyymohsen\/","fileCount":18}
