Berlin-based sound artist Christine Sun Kim experiments with the medium of sound and presents interactive sound performances. Game of Skill 2.0 requires that the audience use their whole body and keep balance, following a line on the wall in order to be able to listen to a recorded story of Christine Sun Kim. When we communicate with sign language, we follow a different method of language by using our eyes, hands, and sometimes the whole body including the mouth and ears. Game of Skill 2.0 is about very different ways of listening and communication. Ten drawings presented along with Game of Skill 2.0 appear to be a kind of poem including the word “future,” or music written with words and lines.
