Stella Noeme Effenberger
Medienkunst / Mediengestaltung
BACKGROUND:
- grew up in and with nature (lonely house on a hill in the forest, granparents are farmers)
- raised by a very religious single mother who is an artist
- childhood was shaped by Christianity but I hated god so much for it that I stopped believing in him very early
- youth was shaped by mother believing in all kinds of weird stuff, especially conspiracies
- always was told "politics is something very boring and thinking about it will just make you sick, nothing can be changed anyway" - so I was highly apolitical and wanted to know nothing
- coming of age, I met some very sympathetical punks and discovered rock festival culture
- I learned that I was wrong about politics
- my grandfather wants me to be a politician instead of an artist
- I want to save the world (literally, the environmental destruction everywhere is killing the planet!)
IDEAS:
- solving world hunger by forcing the food industry to go vegan
- establish astrology as real science again and make it influence politics
- experiment with laws concerning drugs (legalize them all? prohibit alcohol in Germany?) and watch the mayhem
RECOMMENDATIONS:
- "The first rule of Fight Club is: You do not talk about Fight Club. The second rule of Fight Club is: You do not talk about Fight Club. [...]"
- "Ding Dong. Es klingelt. Ich gehe zur Tür, öffne und stehe einem Känguru gegenüber. [...]"
