Roland Boden is only projecting his video work “Dream of the Sleeper, vol.2.” in the intimate space of Studio 4 for two days. A number of night-time scenarios are presented in a series of entirely computer-generated sequences, although there is no direct action or plot. The video will be shown together with mural drawings and a model.

The term “sleeper” is usually employed in the secret services to apply to people who – until they receive a specific code – live inconspicuous, usually bourgeois lives. After receiving a trigger code, they carry out a task that has been precisely determined in advance – for example an assault on property or persons. As a rule, the sleeper’s previous existence is then brought to an end.
