Away with it! how we can overcome prejudice

»NEVER«, »ALWAYS«, »PERMANENT«. We often make these generalizations unconsciously. Around 800 million people express themselves every day via the social network Twitter, which becomes the digital protocol for numerous topics of conversation in our everyday life. The live installation »billed« finds prejudices on Twitter using an analysis algorithm programmed for these words and transfers the automated search protocol into real space – we are asked to deal with the results.
