The tablets with bell pushes in interphone systems have become a natural part of our urban sign-code. They link public and private life and can inform about the cultural and religious backgrounds of the city‘s inhabitants. The Bosnian artist duo Kurt & Plasto have taken photos of the interphone system tablets in the quarter in order to use them in a screen collage named Open the door please.
