Travis Meinolf: "For Sozial Fabrik: One-Day Atelier in the Park please help me to create an edition of hand-woven cloth sculptures in Monbijoupark! I will demonstrate how to use my small looms to quickly produce cloth. I will show you how to tie your loom to a tree and make fabric, and afterwards you can keep the loom that you have learned how to use at the event. Materials will be provided. If you have extra yarn to donate to the project, please bring some! Visit http://www.actionweaver.com for more information about my relational weaving practice. Hope to see you there, Travis" |

Discursive Picnic_8 Hours Don't Make a Day, Thursday September 4th, 2008 from 8 am till 4 pm at Alexanderplatz – between exit U2 (in front of Saturn at Alex) and the Fountain of the Friendship between Peoples. You/we are invited! Bring/take ideas, food/drinks, picnic utensils, work results, opinions, large potatoes and materials such as daily newspapers with want ads sections and a tablecloth for printing! We make potato prints instead of fine print! With newspaper want ads, we want to make new paper plates. By taking Fassbinder’s 1970’s television series 8 Hours Don't Make a Day we want to reintroduce the positive notion, that a society – in case that payed labor doesn't take up more than 8 hours per working day – is able to transform itself (Whatever this alludes to nowadays, with flexible working hours and mass unemployment.) With the workstation, idea workshop e.V., the Holy Church of the Last Three Workdays and other activists of /unvermittelt*, who in open workshops will present, discuss and advance their projects. Children are welcome to join in. Discursive Picnic_8 Hours Are Not a Day, is a location in a public space of the campaign "/unvermittelt", by workstation, idea workshop Berlin e. V., also presented at the New Society for Visual Arts, NGBK, in November 2008 – /unvermittelt - für einen Arbeitsbegriff jenseits von Überarbeitung und Mangel. Praxen, Techniken, Spielräume (--> http://www.unvermittelt.net/ ) (-->http://www.dwigo.net/die )  Discursive Picnic_8 Hours Don't Make a Day, Berlin, Alexanderplatz 4. September, 2008 |

THE third annual alt.SPACE FESTIVAL, took place in July 2007 in and around London, in host venues as well as in public space. Within the context of an overall engagement with the notion of 'the revolutionary & the radical' the festival was an attempt to highlight the increasing number of self-organized collaborative structures that operate within the field of cultural production, particularly those that explicitly address issues of collectivity and collective learning as an alternative to institutional research and educational structures. |

"Walk-Talk-Eat-TalkSomeMore" Experimental Hybrid, April 2006 Co-organized by: C.CRED & BASEKAMP Walk-Talk-Eat-TalkSomeMore is a multi-city, multi-day project in and between London, Philadelphia, Chicago, New York, Malmö, Portland, Stockholm, Tallinn, Berlin and San Francisco. The project is an experimental hybrid of similar work by Ccred & the 16 beavergroup (Counter Cartographies, Alt.Space), BASEKAMP & The Institute for Advanced Architecture (Evident Use), 0009 (platial) and the Bureau of Research into Post Autonomy. The idea behind this series of events is to link a number of different cities in a critical dialogue around the very lose notion of "post-autonomy" and the more specific theme: how can we construct a practice in the discursive space of post-autonomy? The program includes three interlinked components: a collective counter.cartography walk through our different contexts; an alt.space meal (supper, dinner, luncheon) taking place in our different cities and linking us through the questions we pose to one another; and a concluding discussion taking the form of a web-cast linking us in real-time dialogue.
