Employing live performance with a remix-able, wireless and portable production design, DEBT! creates an interactive, mobile happening evolving in real-time; a spontaneous installation anywhere an audience is willing to grow around its disarming energy.
A recent iteration of DEBT! staged at the Park Avenue Armory in New York titled “Take A Photo With DEBT! The Invisible Commodity!” invited fair-goers to walk the red carpet and strike a pose with a pose with DEBT! as caricatured by Morgan’s costumed persona. The space operated simultaneously as art installation, participatory media experiment and performance tableau.performance tableau.
