My Dads Strip Club takes up the challenge to work with local citizens
to 'Answer Back'.
How do we break out of the climate of hypnotized passivity that the
products and adverts cultivate?
"Hey Coke, do you wanna see what The Real Thing feels like"
We want to culture a spirit of answering back with an emphasis on good
time and playfulness. We envisage a mix of 'creatives' and 'resisters'
working together to improvise and make new responses to the city in a
creative and lively way. This DIY approach is a chance to bring
together different ideas and build networks for future creative
actions in Finland. The emphasis will be on fun, building confidence
and relationships.
