The Starter Kit
Contact Young Company worked with artists Tammy Reynolds, Amy Vreeke and Javaad Alipoor to create a new piece of interactive, digital work that is decidedly frisky!
The Company investigated the ins and outs of social movements though a series of online workshops, equipped themselves with the tools they needed to re-imagine the future.
Social movements are fast-moving, ever-evolving spaces. Much like those movements, The Starter Kit grew and changed throughout the time Contact Young Company worked on it.
The project culminated in a live, interactive digital performance in November 2020.
Throughout the process Amy Vreeke created vlogs about the show’s development. You can view the whole playlist here.
