Democracy is a very abstract term to which we got maybe too much accustomed, democracy a political system that \u2013 in the best case- helps people to pursuit happiness \u2013 as the US constitution takes it.
\nDemocracy and freedom are among the highest goods we have in the Western world and it seems to us that it is time to think about what we think, democracy stands for, or at least about the cloud of meaning that comes with the word \u201cdemocracy\u201d.
\nWhat we did in order to create this project is feeding a scrabble finder with the word \u201cdemocracy\u201d and taking the output of the machine as our first starting point.
\nDemocracy means e.g. that majority rules. So what is more obvious than looking for the most used words that start with \u201cd\u201d? We searched the web and compiled a second list with these words.
\nThe next step was asking video artists from all over the world to pick one word from the \u201cdemocracy scrabble\u201d list and one word from the \u201cmost used d-words\u201d list and produce to each of this words a small film, each film not longer than 4 minutes.
\nAfter receiving the films we compiled them to a \u201cdemocracy scrabble\u201d list- film and to a \u201cmost used d-words\u201d list film, which are finally presented to the public.
