"anonymous" consists of two masses, two identities that can only work when they go up into something bigger. they are the opposite of individualists; they do not want to be made visible, do not want to be picked out and held responsible. they fear becoming too comfortable, fear falling out of the shadows. they are on the rise. they have high shoulders. and they enjoy it. they just want to gain access to the enormous freedom of anonymity, where through being nothing can be everything.

in this duet, th'line follows up a long-standing interest in creating and engaging in unique characters and shifting their own identity. in anonymousse, they investigate how different degrees of anonymity affect our thoughts and actions.
