Rake - minimize your information / Lukas Kaufmann, Paul Schreiber, Tessa Aichelburg, Luis Hofmeister
"Rake - minimize your Information" wants to question our media consumption and is directed against the flood of unfiltered information that is constantly pouring in via social media and news, clouding our view of the really relevant statements and news. An algorithm ranks the news of different media agencies according to their relevance for the average reader. The most unimportant messages are printed out by a printer and then cut into strips by a shredder. The mountain of paper shreds is constantly growing and symbolizes the reading performance we can save ourselves.
