We Are Ideas


The Racismomaton

I don’t know any racists, but, it’s true that in France, like most countries with a strong immigration, a passive, unconscious racism can be felt. Most of the times, there’s no coherent reasoning or theories behind it.
The Racismomaton is an “autonomous computarized cabin that, by means of a computer game, allows passersby to take a test that will unveil his/her implicit attitudes towards foreigners. Attitudes that usually are found under discriminatory behaviors.” The test is simple and based on a IAT (Implicit Association Test). IAT were created for the "Project Implicit" by psychologists at Harvard, the University of Virginia and the University of Washington.
