SLEEP TUNNEL
No Architecture
We build a House of Sleep.
SLEEP TUNNEL: No Architecture, Maindeck / Continuous
Derived from Konstantin Melnikov’s proposed architecture of a »Sonata of Sleep«, STWST developed the Sleep Tunnel. Melnikovs idea of the Sonata of Sleep meant a recuperation area for factory workers of the 20ies. This utopian idea will be combined with Stadtwerkstatts credo of »No Architects«. There will be a sleep architecture, a sleep tunnel of no dimension, a no-architecture of transparent relationship between inside and outside, an unprotected area of sleeping entities and an open call to get to sleep during Ars Electronica.
Unconsciousness! No Protection! Transparency! Sleep architecture is also a term from medical sleep research. It means the different sleep stages, which repeat itself in cycles several times per night. Where is my mind!
