The Zombie is kind of unglamorous, as far as characters from cinema go. Bereft of consciousness, personality and ambition, the zombie is more of a tragic antihero; a repulsive parody on the ideal citizen, with no other connection to lived experience than the automatic repetitions of old socialization routines.

"Shopping" at Impakt Event / De Zondagsschool

in
7 December, 2008 - 14:30

The Zondagsschool (Sunday school) is an intellectual variety show in which scientists, designers and artists deal with various themes from surprising perspectives. This Sunday it holds a sale and explores the mechanisms behind our purchasing habits. Do we have shopping genes? Has the mall become our natural habitat? This afternoon, there is a lot to learn from trend watcher Janus ter Visser. We delve into the architecture of shopping malls and psychologist Lies Klumper tells about her treatment of consumer addicts. Iratxe Jaio and Klaas van Gorkum present their project "Stay inside. Close windows and doors.", in which zombies play a special role. The presentations are alternated with films by Yael Bartana, Chris Oakley and The Church of Stop Shopping.

zombiewalk overvecht 19042008 722.jpg

Saturday 19 April 2008. A day to never forget. Ominous moans and spine-chilling screams echoed between the highrises in Overvecht. Ghostly apparitions pushed their way through the neighborhood, leaving a trail of blood. Half human, half monster, it is clear that these beings must have crept out from the underworld, to roam the earth. Followed by the spooky orchestra Tegenwind, beguiling the onlookers with their haunting music. Read more
