Trashcan Symphony

The three dustbins are musical instruments. An interactive installation that guides people from cart to bin will give each visitor an answer to what others are looking for in the dump. Is it a cat in a bag, a magic grinder, a golden grail or Košice's golden treasure? Take a look and see for yourself. The dustbin is not a black hole, some things end in it but others begin. It can contain sauce, boat, peppers or gummies, which will soon start a new life. It is proof of one's own existence, self-awareness in a global context. Who are we? Audience interaction consists of opening the bin lid. This puts them in a completely different light, which is green. He allows himself to be irradiated with a colorful reflection of himself, accompanied by sound. Anyone can play and leave a sound track. We see our own likeness, but hesitate. Go deeper? We can reach to the bottom of our powers and thus create a symphony of sound, or let ourselves be carried away and enjoy playing musical instruments that you have never dreamed of.
