The Democracy Machine!
Adam J. Scarborough, Alasdair Robertson – 2015/2018

Democracy thrives on exchanging different viewpoints and on finding a joint solution.
Ideally, a consensus is reached sometimes a compromise, and sometimes an unresolved disagreement remains. Scarborough's »The Democracy Machine!« requires players to take up a position on a topic and discuss it. It is a competition game that challenges participants to work together on a better society.
Under the Twitter hashtag #democracymachine one can post questions.
The acquisition of »The Democracy Machine!« for the ZKM collection was made possible by the LBBW Foundation and the Fördergesellschaft ZKM / HfG e.V.
