Last time we hung out with Shia LaBeouf last project was #ALLMYMOVIES, where he watched his movies in reverse-chronological order and livestreamed the whole event.
In the current project called #ELEVATE, he’s filming himself in more cramped quarters. Ahead of a talk at Oxford University on Tuesday, LaBeouf — joined by collaborators Nastja Säde Rönkkö and Luke Turner — livestreamed from inside an elevator for 24 hours, with a second 24-hour session for the day following the talk.

In that respect, it’s fulfilling the promise made within the event’s description: “Visitors will be able to join LaBeouf, Rönkkö & Turner inside the elevator during this time, ” writes the Union. “[They] are invited to address the artists, the debating chamber, and the internet, so that their collective voices may form an extended, expansive, and egalitarian Oxford Union address.”
LaBeouf directly addressed that aspect of the performance: “How do we do this and not feel douchey about it, ” asked LaBeouf. “How do we make this egalitarian like the internet? Let’s just move the talk to the elevator.” He’s also discussed his working relationship with Sia, the career of Bill Murray, and his volatility as a performer. “I’m pretty dangerous, ” said LaBeouf. “There are other, safer bets. There are easier people to work with.”
