Κατα την διάρκεια της performance, ο Στέφανος Κουτρούλης, ανακατευεί την ροή της ταινίας FAST 5, σαν να τήθεται σε θέση χειριστή/οδηγού, όπου κατευθύνει με τη χρήση του υλικού και την αναδιαταξή του, την προσοχή μας στον μικρόκοσμο της ταχύτητας και των χαρακτήρων που την αντιπροσωπευούν, εστιάζοντας στα δευτερόλεπτα, πριν και μετά την εκκίνηση των αγώνων δρόμου, στα κοντίνα των εκφράσεων τους και τον υπερκορεσμό τους. Το ηχητικό περιβάλλον που αναπτύσσεται, επαναληπτικό και ροηκό, τίνει να ταράξει την ασφαλή μας συνοδήγηση, εντάσοντάς μας σε μία πορεία εν κινήσει που τα όρια του ορίζοντα και της εμπηρίας του χρόνου θολώνουν και αναδιπλώνονται.

Το ΙΝΟΣ2 + ΙΝΟΣ3 αντιτίθεται στις υψηλές ταχύτητες παραγωγής και την προστακτικότητα της υψηλής εργασιακής και κοινωνικής μας απόδοσης, του high fidelity και high efficiency. Ονειροπολώντας στο παρμπρίζ, με υψηλό κίνδυνο, ως υψηλή αναγκαιότητα.

During the performance, Stephanos Koutroulis rearranges the flow of the film
FAST 5, as if he were in the position of operator/driver, where he directs our attention to the microcosm of speed and the characters that represent it through the use of the material and its rearrangement, focusing on the seconds before and after the start of the road races, on the continence of their expressions and their oversaturation. The sound environment that develops, repetitive and flowing, tends to unsettle our safe accompaniment, joining us in a course on the move where the boundaries of the horizon and the empiricism of time blur and fold.

INOS2 + INOS3 opposes the high speeds of production and the imperative of our high work and social performance, of high fidelity and high efficiency. Dreaming on the windshield, with high risk, as high necessity.

part of the ‘A Collective of Collectives’ festival

‘Becoming Otherwise’ explores how contemporary design practices can evolve through deeply personal, auto-ethnographic approaches, challenging traditional approaches and the externalised focus of conventional design methodologies.
The exhibition aims to offer an alternative perspective on design as a form of cultural critique, self-inquiry, and collective connection, highlighting the relevance of personal narratives in shaping broader social and political dialogues.

The exhibition explores how contemporary design practices can evolve through deeply personal, auto-ethnographic approaches, challenging traditional approaches and the externalised focus of conventional design methodologies. The exhibition aims to offer an alternative perspective on design as a form of cultural critique, self-inquiry, and collective connection, highlighting the relevance of personal narratives in shaping
broader social and political dialogues. Traditionally, design has often been an act of materialising “otherness,” fulfilling external market, industrial, or political needs, frequently reinforcing social hierarchies. Inspired by the book The
Autoethnographic Turn in Design (ed. Louise Schouwenberg and Michael Kaethler), this exhibition critically examines these dynamics and invites both designers and audiences to reconsider the role of
the personal within design processes.
The exhibition asks: What happens when the designer becomes both the subject and object of their work? By centering their own lived experiences, the participating designers blur the lines between
personal and collective narratives, showcasing works that address themes such as memory, identity, trauma, and belonging. Through this lens, design becomes not just a tool for production but a site for reflection, critique, and connection.
The exhibition aims to shift the focus in design from external demands to self-inquiry alongside cultural reflection. It proposes a dialogue between personal narratives and broader societal issues,
presenting emerging voices from the Design Academy Eindhoven (DAE) in a transnational collaboration.
