better think tank project

Ralf Homann & Manuela Unverdorben

 

The Better Think Tank Project (BTTP) is an ongoing series of local interventions dealing with the phenomenon of “think tanks” and their networks: Research of their achievements, as well as the reflection of their hidden agenda, focusing on their aesthetic appearances, cultural influence, production of knowledge and economisation of lifeconditions. BTTP’s goal is to be better (for a better world!). The project covers a wide range of media: books, reports, websites, policy memos, video, performance, installation, collage and water color painting. Combining facts and fiction, language, corporate designs and events from existing free-market oriented think tanks with new contents, this becomes the starting point for a better understanding and critique.
