The Automated Sniper | The Installation

We Are Public brings you the Special Edition of The Automated Sniper by Julian Hetzel. An immersive experience that combines gaming, visual arts and performance. And you’re the one to pull the trigger.

With drones and long distance bombs, the violence of war has been removed from the hands of soldiers and people who give orders. Warfare is starting to look more and more like a computer game. What ethics can we claim today when the enemy is reduced to a collection of pixels on the monitor? How far would you go?

Together with Het HEM and Studio Julian Hetzel we present this installation in the former ammunition factory in Zaandam.
