The Romanian/Serbian artistic collective investigates the creation of value and its distribution in the arts in their performance that is co-created each time by its potential audience. In their own words, “it is a utopian fiction of practical solutions.”

E.I.O is practical.

E.I.O gives you purpose.

E.I.O helps you to experience.

E.I.O provides condition.

E.I.O makes you active.

E.I.O has no judgment.

E.I.O projects no value.

It is an utopian fiction of practical solutions.

It mixes work and leisure to reach a futuristic adventure.

It is the investigation of practicability in a performative frame.

It is a co-created experience where the ultimate aim is to be practical.

One hour society allows the escape from learned helplessness.
