Main research hypotheses - the purpose of research:
The old socialist ideas offered an easier and prosperous life thanks to joint work, capitalism - thanks to investments. The first solution guaranteed free time in a rhythm allowing the regeneration of the body and spirit, the second promises a reward for the effort put into it. Although modernity guarantees us a completely different perspective - robotics and information are to ensure that job is not the most important driving force to survive. So why are we still working hard? My idea is to look at new, radically different solutions, according to which free time is the source of making the effort.
As part of the project, I would like to implement a series of works devoted to free time in one of the most organized and technically developed societies in Europe. I intend to go for an artistic and research trip to Vienna and conduct a series of meetings and workshops with people who are still working hard, although they don’t have to.
