REMINDER! TOMORROW

6-7:30pm Power Elastics - Rain Wegmann Workshop

7:30pm Intro .s and Food by Küfa bike

8pm de_colonialanguage - Participatory installation

9-10pm “The way things last” -Film screening in the yard + Q&A

Power Elastics, a practice between soft lecture performance and an embodied working. Through playful flows, critical conversations, and elastic bands, we explore how resilience and elasticity can become tools for collective agency and empower us to resist systems that fracture both ecosystems and communities.

de_colonialanguage transforms the public sphere into a collaborative archive, inviting passersby to contribute words that map Wedding’s colonial history onto the space through interactive poetry creation.

[ufo ufo] - “The Way Things Lasts” visualizes the emergence of self-organized urban spaces and how collectives sustain these fragile urban environments; the 15-minute screening of the work is followed by a 20-minute Q&A.

We look forward to having you!

Raum Halten – Sustaining Self-Organized Spaces
Saturday, 9th of May, 5pm

Make-up turns 5, and we take this as a moment not only to celebrate, but to reflect on the conditions under which self-organized art and cultural spaces exist today and their political role in the city.

diffrakt, Spoiler, floating and Make-up come together to discuss questions of self-organization, collective practice, and political positioning: How are these spaces organized? How do they finance themselves and build collective structures?
What conflicts and forms of exhaustion emerge in everyday practice and which solidarities endure?

In times of cultural budget cuts and increasing debates around censorship, the question arises anew: What role can and do self-organized spaces want to take on as political actors?
Between the precarity of those without ownership and resistance against it, this is also about networks, about how these spaces can not only survive, but actively strengthen one another.

Come by and join the discussion.
