Personal Information Needed


We are submitting a prosal to the Conflux Festival '07 in Williamsburg, NY in the beginning of Setember.

The proposal is based on a confession booth where willing participants will confess their sins and in response, one of our members will give them a suggestion to repent based on an act that is community based and/or art related.

Afterwards the participant will recieve a postcard and be asked to return it to us, checking off whether or not they chose to repent with our suggestion or if they came up with something similar to do themselves.

The confession booth will be designed with wood or aluminum and dark curtains will enclose the rectangular form that we have built. A divider will be inside the booth to separate the sinner from the group member.

We will be documenting the project with a hidden video camera placed inside the booth concealing the person who is confessing. We will include a sound element equal to ambient chanting to set the mood for the piece - and be recording the voices of both the PIN member and the participant.
