YKON's film and installation present fragments from a summit convened by the group YKON as a fictional summit of micronations – the M8. Micronations are small utopian communities of like-minded people operating within or outside the power structures of the world. Micronations exist all around the world in various guises, some proclaiming independence as nation states and living in autonomous spaces such as disused fortress on the sea. Micronations can exist as historical anomalies, as virtual entities or a combination of both. As communities of discourse, they create utopian ideas, concepts and symbols as alternatives for established narratives of power.
