by Jennifer Duarte. Fiona Good. Pascal Jeker. Marcial Koch

Everyday we live surrounded by hundreds of objects but do we use them all or do we forget them?
What if in an utopic world, our unused objects could ask for our attention?
By visiting this installation you can explore the sound atmosphere of the forgotten items.
  • Catharograph
by Melanie Abbet, Stefan Lustenberger, Duy Bui.
A device allowing you to relief stress and pressure through a cathartic action
  • Hollow 
by Claudia Buck, Randy Chen, Dominik Szakacs, Ju young Yi (the Inbetweeners)
ZHdK has more than 130 internal students, yet their struggles to adjust in the new surrounding are unknown. We are delivering their personal stories to make the locals aware of the foreign students’ difficulties in communicating, due to the language barrier and the cultural difference.
