SIMONE MICHELIN 19-04-2021
The third version of Lilliput was commissioned by Nokia Corporation - a Finnish multinational company founded in 1865, of telecommunications infrastructure, telecommunications technology and consumer technology - for its electronic music festival Nokia Trends. This edition of the festival, held in the city of São Paulo, had a section called Connecting Street, with digital art works representing the latest trends of the season.
The festival lasted 24 hours and featured a website, to which the Lilliput 3.0 database was linked. Although the duration of the festival is short, the website was launched days before and stayed for a while afterwards, reaching an impressive number of views, promoted by the festival's marketing and its target audience.
The set design of this version was created from photographs of degraded regions of the city of São Paulo, a kind of side B of the city, an anti postcard. The space was intensely used, as emphasized in a review by Void magazine:… "In your (Lilliput) space on Nokia Trends, visitors could capture images with cell phones that have cameras and automatically upload these images to create digital wallpapers and films for cell phones It was one of the most disputed areas - whenever I passed by there was someone taking a picture. ”
