The mission of The Emergence Room is to create The Emergence Room. Emergence is the way complex systems and patterns arise out of a multiplicity of relatively simple interactions. The Emergence Room is a deufert&plischke project. It is build temporarily into an existing environment like a museum, a theater, a festival center, an academy, a retail store. Its theme is Arachne, the first artist, the female artist, the woman that was punished for her artwork and transformed into a spider. The Emergence Room is a space of collaboration. Everybody that enters the Emergence Room is co-responsible for its creation. Everybody can contribute material or new instructions. The Emergence Room is a space of silence and proliferation.
