We started out by thinking about the poet Dante who talked about the “seven vices” in his “Divine Comedy.” How do people think about vices in our current time? Games of Chance, collecting - are these vices, or are they a “lifestyle”?

 

Our project wants to think about the way vices exist in our everyday life today. Examples are alcohol, drugs and smoking, but also games and TV could become vices, it all depends on the way you look at it, the way one leads their life.

 

How do we think about vices in 2011?  Are the above vices still considered vices, have new vices cropped up that Dante knew nothing about?
