The Decelerator is an entity, a device, designed as an installation to actively slow down how we perceive time in relation to ever-accelerating technological advances

Eight video artists from Europe and the Americas will present a variety of new and existing videos and video-mapped installations. The Decelerator involves a subterranean sound piece commissioned for the exhibition by the German Industrial musician Alexander Hacke (Einstürzende Neubauten).

This sound piece, the murmuring thread, will play throughout the respective spaces. The mix of work installed within this single soundtrack, presented simultaneously in three cities, makes this an exciting and conceptually new form of exhibition, which mirrors the conversations the show hopes to broach.

Locations of the simultaneous exhibitions:
