Electric Sky 2024 – Museum de Fârte

Electric Sky is cross between an artists’ retreat and a hackathon where you’ll spend several days in the woods on the river in an outdoor pop up creativity lab making stuff. Then on Saturday night it opens to the public to experience what you’ve created. This, in our group’s third year, we unsurprisingly have a potty- and cult-adjacent project again: the Museum de Fârte!

One of our better group photos, actually. Here we are as the Church of the Black Hole, who ideated, sponsored, and built the Museum and its installations proudly standing in front of the sacred outhouse.

Again, I blame the theme: SUN WIND WATER — asking how might we engage with renewable energy in art. Therefore, we picked the most absurd interpretation, using the following “logic” (someone has to be the dada-ists of the event!).

Most kids and adults thinks farts are funny.
They have a taboo/inappropriate dinner conversation aspect that makes it feel a little fun and naughty.
What do you really know about farts, anyway?
It’s the perfect vehicle for some next-level corporate greenwashing.
