The Oeverseepark is a place of multifunctional use. Old and young people take an advantage of the recreation possibilities in the heart of Gries. In this place, you can make very good observations about the inhabitants of the district.

The „ Point for Civic Reinforcement “ is a provocative interference, putting learned patterns of behavior into question. A male voice brings forward rules which could characterize a good citizen. Quotations, sometimes slightly modified, from various sources of authoritative systems, from scouts to the GDR regime and form contemporary people. The short statements cunningly interact with the idyll of the park. The novel „Brave New World“ by Aldous Huxley has had its undeniable influence.

The speaker recites the texts with a pleasant, suggestive voice. Since the source of the sound remains invisible for visitors, the voice has some spherical moments.
