The Society of False Witnesses invites witnesses from the fields of life, construction, geotechnical engineering, hydrology, linguistics, and spatial theory to present a tour of the Normandy landfill.

The Society of False Witnesses is an indisciplinary platform that looks into the relationship between the production of space and the production of knowledge. Through occupying disciplines in collaborations, writing, performance, cryptography, and learning, The Society of False Witnesses probes and plays with the spatial politics of exile, the underground, the internet ,and the battlefield, and their epistemological repercussions on the performance and lexica of ignorance and knowledge. Their work include the performance The First Repository(Beirut Art Center – Beirut 2015), the dance performance Instead of a Turret on Top (ICA – Boston, 2015), the exhibition Content and Danger (Edgerton Center – Boston, 2015), the radioplay I Hate the Past but It Seduces Me(The Lebanese Broadcasting Station – Beirut, 2016), and the sound essay D B B D (Forum Expanded, ADK – Berlin, 2016).
