// Congress
// Date: 22. - 30.11.2008
The congress will unfold into the wide set of events, seeking deeper understanding in educational and artistic practices within changing processes. A residency-like “Régime” supplemented by a number of workshops, lectures, presentations and an exhibition will end up with the first Migrating Art Academies seminar.
Régime is an attempt to combine or forcefully blend together the art making (value routine) with the residual acts (non-value routine) of human habituation. As a spatio-temporal mélange this event will not fit the categorical schemes of genre or type, though supervised by tutors, Régime will try to explore spatial limitations and repetitiveness. A synchronous but not synchronised mosaic of activities overlapping in certain periodicity performed and/or lived by the artists (Artonauts) “embedded” in the temporary space would constitute a combined average flow of actions or a continuous performance. Among the key issues of Migrating Reality congress is a synchronisation of human activities driven not by the imposed goal but by the act of sharing. In this particular case, sharing knowledge, space and time.
Up to ten students from the above mentioned art academies will reside in the General Public project space in Berlin. Within their time of residency the participants will get in contact and work together with people with a migration background who are living in Berlin and are engaged in the cultural sector. The experimental set-up of Régime as a temporary, interdisciplinary platform (alike an alternative, reformed school) provides a basis and creates a flexible social space for the exchange of knowledge and ideas as well as the communication of cross-cultural competence and creative strategies. The supporting programme consisting of workshops and seminars communicates practical approaches and also theoretical topics relating to migration and its realities.
During the runtime of Régime there will be an audiovisual stream showing the on-site situation live on the internet, which is not only to thematise surveillance and control but also processes of migration from reality to virtuality. So, at the same time a special style of documentation of Régime will be realised.
Objects, ideas and documents produced during the time will be exhibited at the end of Régime in the same space.
