“In the age of digital and social media, we constantly receive multiple and often contradicting streams of information that shape our increasingly complex and contested realities.”

Out of the trauma of Brexit, The Voice Party was born! Standing in the UK 2019 elections, The Voice Party stands for everything that the mainstream parties do not and if elected would restructure the entire political system around the beautiful, truthful, harmonious and egalitarian laws of pure sound.



The Voice Party ‘Department for Education’ created a TwitterBot, similar to the Ancient Greek choruses, the Bot is a device that answers, scolds , comments, insults and gives counsel to current populist governments. At the moment trained on Boris Johnson, theVoicePartyOperaBotFarm delivers a stream of multi-voiced operatic invective, advice and humour on twitter every time Boris Johnson tweets, and acts as an operatic counterbot to populist botfarms.

In collaboration with Deutschlandfunk Kultur/Klangkunst and Ö1 Kunstradio The Voice Party is delighted to present a one hour medley of theVoicePartyOperaBotFarm’s finest APP-eratic tweets!

Sound: Martin Leitner und Manuel Radinger
