As with the MacGuffins in Hitchcock\u2019s films, the objects are not the main characters, but plot devices that set the story in motion. The strongly interdisciplinary approach that the curators, Kirsten Algera and Ernst van der Hoeven, propose is able to explore and put into perspective the main philosophical, social, and political theories of our time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To explore the topic in the publishing field, the Festival hosted the installation <em>Chain chain chain<\/em>, dedicated to the new issue <em>The Chain<\/em> focused on the object of the chain. From hip-hop jewellery to resistance movements, from new slavery to blockchain technologies, the work explores our complex relationship with the chain and its contrasting characteristics of connection, decoration, and constraint. The eight posters that compose the installation represent a selection of key images and articles from the eleventh issue that can be removed and taken home by the visitor, creating in their turn a chain of relationships. <br>Along with the installation, the room also features a podcast corner where visitors can listen to the 2Chains podcast series created by researchers and curators Alix de Massiac and Alex Furtado Melville.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Kirsten Algera and Ernst van der Hoeven are writers, curators, educators and co-founders of MacGuffin, a design research platform exploring the life of ordinary things.&nbsp;In themed magazines, presentations and podcasts MacGuffin explores the personal and sometimes curious relationships we have with the stuff that surrounds us. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.macguffinmagazine.com\/\">Website of the project<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\">XII edition<br><strong><em>The life of things<br>and\u202f the invisible qualities of objects<\/em><\/strong><br>22 \u2013 28 September 2022<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\"><strong>Venue:<br><\/strong>Teatro Carcano<br>Corso di Porta Romana, 63, <br>MM3 Crocetta, Milan<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"15211\" src=\"https:\/\/videosoundart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Anna-DAmore-12-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15211\" srcset=\"https:\/\/videosoundart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Anna-DAmore-12-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/videosoundart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Anna-DAmore-12-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/videosoundart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Anna-DAmore-12-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/videosoundart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Anna-DAmore-12-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/videosoundart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Anna-DAmore-12-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/videosoundart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Anna-DAmore-12-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"15213\" src=\"https:\/\/videosoundart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Annalisa-Lei-2-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15213\" srcset=\"https:\/\/videosoundart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Annalisa-Lei-2-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/videosoundart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Annalisa-Lei-2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/videosoundart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Annalisa-Lei-2-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/videosoundart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Annalisa-Lei-2-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/videosoundart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Annalisa-Lei-2-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"15209\" src=\"https:\/\/videosoundart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Yesuqi-Lin-7-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15209\" srcset=\"https:\/\/videosoundart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Yesuqi-Lin-7-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/videosoundart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Yesuqi-Lin-7-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/videosoundart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Yesuqi-Lin-7-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/videosoundart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Yesuqi-Lin-7-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/videosoundart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Yesuqi-Lin-7-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption\">MacGuffin,\u00a0<em>Chain chain chain<\/em>, installation view.
