The moment of consideration
Inner positions of "yes" and "no"

THIS IS ONE PART OF A GROWING SERIES IN DIFFERENT LANGUAGES (already 9 languages ready: chinese, french, croatian, russian, spanish, german, swiss-german, austrian, indian)

I was inspired to the videoseries by my ever and anon inner dialogue - the difficulty to come to a decision. The "maybe", the "both as well". The inner conflict between rationality and emotion.

On one side she says in her mothers language, "yes, yes, yes" and on the other side "no, no, no" - with different gestures and intonations. She is seemingly in dialogue with herself. The audience becomes part of these dialogues. Everybody knows these inner dialogs between yes and no - this soliloquy. This video tries to visualize the variety of aspects, the different levels of inner talks, at the moment of consideration in a simple and playful manner. Our world is becoming increasingly complex. Our inner dialogue is becoming longer and longer. "Be clear", "Sharpen your mind". We have to leave the "Yes" and "No" behind us - and decide. A step has to be made, even passive. There is no non-action, because non-action is also a decision.
