In an action-packed, nail-biting, and absolutely exhilarating sixty minutes that will most certainly knock you off your Steelcase Think Chairs I will (try my best to) introduce you to and explain:

  • what irony is

  • how artists use irony

  • how you can use irony as an element in your projects

  • the different layers of irony (from truth, to irony, to post-irony, to meta-irony, to post-post irony, to post-meta-irony, to ???)

  • why your parents find minion memes funny

  • why i am still scared of the dark

  • some problems with irony and sOcIeTy

There will be minimal talking—we will be watching many short videos and looking at internet memes

Disclaimer: I don't really know what I'm talking about. Irony is a concept I am fascinated by but can never fully grasp... which should make this even more fun!!!
