Religious Leaders Installation Idea

Religions- parallels and similarities 

Installation 

4 walls or circle wall 

Multiple split screen 

Low lit 

Table in middle 

IPAC pressure pad 

Another idea that we have accumulated is to do with the subject of religion in the relations to the parallels and similarities between religions despite the prominent conflict, amplifying equality as many beliefs and traditions are similar. This would promote peace between religions. In order to show this we need to consider how we would present it, whether it be and exhibition or even screen based or a combination of media. We could potentially present it in the form of an interactive exhibition where on each wall, there are multiple split screens of establishing shots that are relatable to specific religions (e.g churches, mosque, synagogue). The sense of interactivity would be provided when the consumer walks into the room... there could be a table in the centre of the exhibition, with a multiple choice of buttons or books relating to different religions (e.g bible, qua'ran etc) and they would be asked to sit down on a provided chair. On the chair would be a built in I PAC pressure pad that initiates all the videos on the walls when pressure is applied. This would show multiple people all simultaneously entering the screen and sitting down on a chair making it seem almost like a conference or social group/meeting. ( could get everyone to say please choose an option on the table ). Once the consumer has chose an option, the specific corresponding video would play where they would explain their thoughts and beliefs. Meanwhile this is playing all the other videos would still be playing but the subjects would be silent just looking at the consumer as if they're listening to each other. This could be achieved through slight movement or nodding. Ideally the content would overlap between religions and could potentially make a coherent statement when combining multiple religions together. Perhaps one would we provide an opportunity for transition from religion to another.
