Arvausinstituutti (in Finnish)

Catcholector on, let’s catch and collect! Special Collectors from the Guessing Institute (Arvausinstituutti) are hard at work. They have a tube machine designed to detect all those stories and tales that are around us. But there are so many of them swirling around – how can you catch and collect them all?

The ever-so-zealous Special Collectors want to bring order to the boisterous stream of imagination. For this purpose, they have developed the Catcholector, a special machine that catches and collects untold stories and tales. Its extra-sensitive tubes detect all plots, twists and turns that somebody comes to think of. It is guaranteed to catch and collect every single story and tale in its operating zone. But is it possible? The world is so full of stories, they keep pelting down all around us!

The Guessing Institute, or the Unpredictably Prestigious yet Boisterous Presentation of all Stories and Tales Untold is a dance theatre performance by two artists. The show involves a lot of improvisation and interaction with children and makes us think about the importance of imagination.
