Luftraum [Christof Kurzmann]
Kriegsmaschine / War Machine [Nicolas Siepen]
Friday, June 2 19:30 - 20:00
A montage of two kinds of montage, two types of assembling images
about, in between, beyond, as a war machine within the images
themselves. A fine line between love and hate: 1. Jean Genets »Un chant
d’amour« (A love Song) – how to make love through a wall and que(e)r it
(smoke). 2. The Godard/Gorin/Mieville machine »Ici et Ailleure« (Here
and Elsewhere) – how to use a two-image-assembly to ruin the war
montage itself - are we not mature to read an Image yet? (Fascism)

Arms Race, Architectural [Ines Weizman]
Friday, June 2 16:30 - 16:55
An architectural arms race is a competition between two or more countries for supremacy through the means of architecture and urbanism. Each party competes to produce architectural imagery or concrete built form to achieve a relative gain over the other. Such gain could be accounted for either symbolically, or physically interfering with urban practices in the country of the opponent.
Rog - Smo zacasni / We are temporary
Saturday 25th of March 2006 marked the start of the initiative to open the abandoned bicycle factory Rog for temporary use, with the intent to carry out non-profit, non-established activities on its premises. It is not a classic occupation of space, but a temporary alteration of its purposes. The 7000 square meter large factory - owned by the City of Ljubljana (MOL) - has already been left to decay for 15 years.
