Research Project 2008
I HAVE SOMETHING TO HIDE is a research project from the students of the Sandberg Instituut for The Privacy Project, originally initiated by the VPRO and Holland doc. The Pigeon Project is a poetic response to the problems concerning Privacy in our nowadays society.
On the roof of the Post CS, a group of artists and designers have built a giant inbox where 15 post-pigeons lived from April till July 2008. The participants to the experiment have communicated between each other for 1 month using only homing pigeons in order to avoid emails, sms, phonecalls and mailpost.
Since April 2008, the participants fed, cleaned and trained the homing pigeons. In June 2008 the birds started their job flying trough out Amsterdam delivering messages. In the meantime the group arranged interviews with researchers and experts, and organized artistic projects in the public space.
The documentary about the project, together with other artworks and the outcomes of the research were shown during Experimenta Design Amsterdam, in September 2008.
