Movie

Offset: Boiler Room (2023)
Douban
Sam Lavigne / Tega Brain
IDFA DocLab Competition for Digital Storytelling Headsets, computer monitors and a dashboard with sales statistics. From the appearance of it, this is a call center. But unlike a call center that inundates you with insurance policy offers or phone contracts, this one sells new kinds of carbon offsets that turn capitalist logic on its head. In this hybrid installation developed by artists Tega Brain and Sam Lavigne, the roles are reversed. You become the salesperson, and your clients are corporate heads of high-emission companies. Your goal is to sell them offsets generated through “Industrial Sabotage as Temporary Carbon Storage,” a methodology that calculates carbon credits from direct action. Offset: Boiler Room offers a critical look at existing carbon compensation schemes and is part of the Offset series, through which the artists envision a compensation market radically different from the current one. 100% of the revenue from the successful sales will be donated to relevant activist organizations. 源自:

这个还挺好玩的,让观众扮演游说大企业负责人买碳抵消的客服。可以选择要游说的对象然后打电话过去,也可以查看之前别的观众的电话录音。不过最好玩的是其他观众的文字留言,基本上都是埋怨电话那方蠢或者敷衍的,哈哈。
