"First of all it was a personal dream I wanted to share, I dreamed about flying since I was a little boy, so I thought I want to realize this dream..I know that many people thought this was a joke but that wasn't the purpose."Floris Kaayk, a filmmaker from The Hague, talks about his last project, a story called “Human birdwings”. Kaayk made a series of videos to document the realisation of the first human wings created by a fictional character Jarno Smeets. Thanks to a blog, a Youtube channel and social networks, the story was believed and shared with millions of people. Following the great success of the videos, Kaayk publicly declared that the project was a fictional story intended as a trans-medium experiment that could was made possible thanks to the power of network sharing.
This talk was recorded during Artist Talk: Third Culture Symposium Ljubljana, in November 2012.
