Exhibition summary

OMSK Social Club presents 'T(( ))mb,' an immersive real-game-play scenario that blurs the boundaries between exhibition, performance, and film. Visitors are invited to explore the limits of language and world through an interactive, LARP-inspired experience.

Curatorial context

The exhibition 'T(( ))mb' (spoken: tomb) by the Berlin-based collective OMSK Social Club, produced for Kunstraum Niederoesterreich, delves into how language-games shape consciousness, inspired by Ludwig Wittgenstein's philosophy. The collective's practice, termed 'Real Game Play' (RGP), uses LARP (live action role play) patterns to systematically blur fiction and reality. 'T(( ))mb' invites visitors into a critically speculative 'as-if' world, presented as an immersive installation with three stations where participants can engage with the game's rules and characters. The setting draws aesthetics from video games, culminating in a specially produced film that forms the centerpiece of the installation. Visitors have the agency to interact with 'T(( ))mb' through direct engagement or private contemplation after leaving the venue, allowing for diverse modes of participation. The collective, founded in 2016, focuses on creating shared experiences and speculative fictions, weaving virtual egos and cultural phenomena into hybrids of contemporary culture and personal interpretation. A 'cheat sheet' is provided to guide visitors through the exhibition's world.

Admission and ticket notes

Information regarding ticketing and admission is not explicitly detailed on this page, but visitors are invited to engage with the exhibition's interactive elements. A "cheat sheet" is available for guidance within the exhibition's world.
