The Opening

September 25th, 2006

Zwischenraumen in Graz, 23rd of September – 15th October 2006

September 23rd, 2006

a couple of keywords

August 21st, 2006

A couple of keywords appeared so far:
 
- “open source” principle (in the metaphorical sense it means that nothing is taken as a set form, a recepy – everything is open to debate and to a re-thinking process. In this sense the “open source money” was introduced to me by Chiron Morpheus)
 
- “diy” (do-it-yourself) principle of the so-called “mini-festival” (in the sense of self-organization, self-motivation, self-representation of artists, who are also the only and the main “capital” of the festival)

- procesuality (no need to present the ready-made project – it can be an intermediate ”live” phase)
 
- some more keywords?

There is a kind of questionary available that will register participants’ desires and needs. Use it as soon as possible. The formular will be submitted to Borut’s email and saved in database. Check it here .

Be aware that this is basically a self-organized festival, so some extra technical needs should be known in advance – and nothing fancy. To sleep we can choose the basic solution: at the nun?s hotel (for males and females) or in a rented appartement.

During the days there will be three levels of activities:
- the passive: installations, exhibitions
- the interactive/interpassive: debates, presentations, social actions
- the active: performences, concerts
(there is no clear line between the three – let?s keep it open & fluid)

First deadlines

August 8th, 2006

In english (click more for slovene): In the beginning of august Mojca and me met with our Graz partner Reni Hofmueller. Reni named and described participants from Graz, that are of the same variety as Ljubljana participants. Who are they? We also declared two deadlines.

First is 15th of  august, when we have to know when in the week of the Graz event (23. september to 1. oktober) someone will be in Graz – to make the reservations for rooms. It would be necessary also to define more precisely the dates and specifics of presentations, so that it can form a kind of skeleton of the mini-festival.

It became clear that a translator from slovene to english will be needed for the presentation by Bostjan Leskov?ek. Milena Kosec will need an local partner to help her with her public interventions in the streets of Graz.

Second deadline is the 31st august, when we have to have the material for the flyer ready. It should include all the participants, dates and hours, titles, descriptions, other texts… of participants’ most concrete presentations/performances/installations/exhibitions.

Participants lost and found
Lost is Milijana Babi? for reasons of family illness. 

Found is Irena Toma?in, that confirmed her participation for two days.

Lost for physical participation is Chiron Morpheus for reasons of family holidays, but he will try to connect telematically from Greece and present his idea of Ideotop - over the net and onto the screen of ESC.
