No
The project came about as a result of a conflict in a particular group of people. I had to take a side, think over my relationship to this group. I realised I am full of dislike, which was suddenly released - I wrote a text, in which I analysed what I don't want and why not. It was very frank, sometimes in an embarassing way. I read the letter to these people and felt as if I stood there naked. In this kind of shame I suddenly felt alright.
Then I thought: negative energy, energy of aversion, of being pissed off could be a strong, effective power.
So I made a video No, a collection of utterances about dislikes.
I asked other people what they don't like, can't stand, what they would push away a far as they can. And also - what do they hate.
