about

“Protest, evasion, merry distrust, and a delight in mockery are symptoms of health; everything unconditional belongs in pathology.”

- Friedrich Nietzsche

A crowd of dissenters claps, chants, cheers, and shouts into the open air. Their chance choral creations are at once jubilant and angry, orderly and chaotic, rhythmic and random, melodious and cacophonous. Touching on ethics, justice, democracy, and global citizenship, Rabble Rousers explores the notion of protest as a spontaneous installation of improvised 'music' in public space.
