Any visitor can purchase a ticket, hop in and take the cars for a ride. Initially the\u00a0bumper\u00a0cars function as normal, but after a few minutes \u2018<em>the system\u2019<\/em>\u00a0takes over and the steering wheel no longer works. Visitors become subject to the cars and experience first hand what it means to lose control when a computer takes over. From that point on, the cars perform a \u2018<em>dance\u2019:<\/em>\u00a0abumper\u00a0car\u00a0ballet\u00a0inspired by the \u2018<em>dancing DAF-cars\u2019<\/em>\u00a0from a promotional video by the famous Dutch car manufacturing company DAF.\u00a0 The installation playfully tackles the social implications of emerging autonomous technology.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bumper\u00a0Ballet<\/strong>\u00a0is the latest instalment of\u00a0<strong>The Fair Grounds<\/strong>: a series of artworks where an amusement ride doubles as an \u2018art installation\u2019 and a vendor doubles as a \u2018performer\u2019. A new narrative has been added to pre-existing amusement rides and old forms of entertainment have been updated. Likewise, new forms of entertainment have been outfitted with traditional stories and customs. The result is a fairground where every ride has been modified, enhanced or completely redesigned:\u00a0<em>popular culture meets high tech and high art!<\/em><\/p>\n<p>With the project\u00a0<strong>The Fair Grounds<\/strong>, DROPSTUFF.nl combines the rich history of fairs with modern day festivals to create a place where once again new insights and discoveries are being presented to a broad audience. The result is a meeting ground where one\u2019s own experience is key: see, touch, hear, taste and experience it for yourself.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bumper\u00a0Ballet\u00a0<\/strong>has been realized in close collaboration with\u00a0<strong>Eindhoven Museum<\/strong>\u00a0and the designers\u00a0<strong>Peter de Man<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong>Douwe Hibma.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Earlier this year,\u00a0<strong>The Fair Grounds<\/strong>\u00a0won the NICE Award 2019 \u2013 a European prize for social innovation.
