The Proletarian Theatre:
A Technological Coup D'etat

Centred equidistant from prominent seats of power in West London, the Proletarian Theatre harvests data to form the basis for the self governance of theatre employees.

 

The mingling of mindfulness spaces and democratic spaces allows for the disruption of localised power dynamics. The use of data becomes key in this disruption as through the processing of said data, the building will become the grounds for employee led discussion on the various relevant topics of the day. This debate is held in a central amphitheatre, serving the same role as the parliaments of ancient Rome - the housing for the spectacle of democracy.
 

Benjamin Bratton summarises best “sovereignty is defined by the ownership of data, not by geopolitical borders.”
