What does it mean to be online? When do digital spaces connect people, and when do they make them lonely? In the reading “Technoescapists - Escape and Self-Discovery in Virtual Spaces,” artists Alice Muitoevoli Rugai, Anna Frehiwot Maconi, Elena Agebo, Nancy Ehrlich, Hannes Zawodnik, and Jaymie Wei explore virtual worlds.
They read texts about digital identities, self-presentation, escape and projection, images of violence, intimacy, and isolation.
Virtual spaces can be places of refuge. But they can also create pressure and distort perception of reality. The reading highlights these contradictions and asks: How do screens influence thoughts, feelings, and actions? The event invites the audience to listen, reflect, and engage in conversation. It is about personal experiences, political questions, and creative perspectives on our digital present.
