Sensible Objects is a performance by performance art/music group Berru that translates the idea of impossibility to entirely give up on the material world and shift to the digital one. The project involved the conception, creation and presentation of the homonymous work (in installation and performative format), presented in Oporto on March 26, 2022 and the online release of the film of the work.

It appears that designer Miguel Mesquita is being slightly ironic about the statement of the artists – the Quattrocode typeface used for the performance’s identity grew out of the PDF417 barcode that helped fully automate the goods accounting process at warehouses. The grotesk used for additional information appears to be ABC Favorit.
