- This work is comprised of series of interviews with 24 teenagers that are simultaneously displayed on six monitors. Interviewed teenagers are coming from across the Europe - Belgium, Serbia, Denmark and Holland. Still, there is one thing they have in common: they have never voted before and in their countries elections were to be held that year, so they will express they political opinion through voting for the first time. If we understand multiplicity of their voices as indicator of the future, their still naive and unspoiled openness provides us with interesting predictions. The teenagers speak openly about voting, immigration, the European Union, and local political issues like independence of Kosovo. To accompany the audio-recorded interviews, I shot parts of the cities (Belgrade, Amsterdam, Antwerp and Copenhagen) that function as visual associations to topics questions refer to. This project did not deal with objectivity, although it was done in the form of a survey; I intended to make the ‘urgency probes’ among teenagers and try to find constructive answers regarding multicultural assimilation.
