A virtual reality that takes you to that elusive world of New Babylon, where daily work has been replaced by play and life resides in poetry. It is the home of the Homo Ludens created by Dutch painter Constant Nieuwenhuys (1920–2005) in the sixties. Young, activist spoken word artists and designers bring it to live in an interactive installation for Over het IJ Festival. Is it all that Constant dreamed of or has it turned into a nightmare?

Enter New Babylon is a co-production of Fondation Constant, Over het IJ Festival, Hogeschool voor de Kunsten Utrecht, Poetry Circle Nowhere and Feikes Huis.
