There are 613 mitzvot (commandments from God) that all Jews are supposed to follow. Some of them are easy to understand and apply to modern day life, while others seem antiquated and irrelevant. (re)velation invites participants to ponder the 613 rules and to submit their own (re)interpretation of what they mean to us today.
Using a dynamic interactive interface, we are collecting text and audio "remixes" of the 613 mitzvot for an art piece which will debut at DAWN, a special event at grand opening of the Contemporary Jewish Museum in San Francisco.
Submission will be a part of the installation of this piece, where the mitzvot will be displayed along side their remixes to create an interactive environment of contemplation, interpretation, and understanding.
