This was oneseconds

From 2011 to 2023 oneseconds was a multidisciplinary collective of four creative minds. Thorsten Alofs, Bas van Eijk, Jochem Hees and Sebastian Kox. Our work moved inside the boundaries between performance, installation art and games. Most of our experiences highlight aspects of group behavior, systems or technology that inconspicuously influence our thoughts and actions. We liked our work to be accessible and entertaining for a broad audience, but embed a deeper layer of meaning for the spectator who is willing to see it.

Starting out as VJ’s at parties we were craving more than showing moving wallpaper. We made use of self programmed tools that enabled us to create unique content on the spot together with our audience. Watching people interact with each other and our tools inspired us to evolve our work into installations and performances, where the audience took an even more active role. Human behavior, and the ability to influence it is an inspiration for most of our work.

Our work was presented at various festivals like Oerol, Lowlands, STRP Biennial, Dutch Design Week, IDFA, IMPAKT, EMAF and the Venice Biennial.
