Napalm Your Personal Disco

Napalm Disco, 2010
Public happening

ENG
Napalm Disco was organized in Celje as part of the Vstop Prost / Entrance free festival in 2010. The city where we grew up was transforming before our eyes, and the sense of freedom and empowerment was gradually replaced by disorganised control and the illusion of progress. For several years, alternative cultural spaces had been closing down, leaving behind renovated facades, vast parking lots, and bars echoing with generic music.
Napalm Disco acts like a social parasite, creating its own sphere as a platform for performances and unpredictable events. It offers a unique social environment, shaped like a cube, set within an undefined spatial context. It exists temporarily and is destroyed after each iteration, inducing catharsis. It also dictates a social experiment involving both participants and visitors.
The installation is constructed on-site, using only wood, cardboard, and neon lights. It is powered by its own electricity via a generator. Inside, there is a bar serving free alcoholic drinks and space for a DJ.

Participants: Jure Cvitan, Miha Peperko, Mark Požlep, Mia Špindler, Saša Šuštar, Manja Vadla.
