Guerilla Walk
Performative urban walk with wireless headphones
Put your wireless headphones on and let yourself be carried away by stories, sharp wit, improvisation, and the music prepared by Oliver Hangl and Edyta Jarząb. Discover the urban jungle and forget about classic urban tourism! We might dive into a shopping centre or a swimming pool, a supermarket or restaurant, take a tram or silently visit a church. It will not be just public places that we’ll be visiting; we might lift the lid on the privacy of some passers-by and peer into their apartment – these surprises are typical for Guerilllawalks, which Hangl conducts throughout Europe.
Passersby notice this strange group of walkers with headphones, trying to guess what is the purpose of their city trip. In the eyes of the viewers, they change into an interesting species of "animal" – partly anonymous, abstract, yet very interesting; that is why such a group often attracts attention. The walkers themselves are tensely awaiting what is coming next, where to go and whom they will meet there.
Guerillawalks change the perception of reality – the participants are isolated from their surroundings with the help of headphones, they don’t even talk to the people standing next to them. Guerillawalks is an opportunity for an introverted, intimate experience within a group of people walking around the city, wherein almost anything can happen.
