So, here I'm now posting a picture of the first little thing i did for my project this year. I've even created a completely new topic called "projects" for this. My hope is that other people will do the same - post pictures/descriptions of their current project to get some response and discussion about it...

For this first month of school, the theme is "the social city" - dealing with the architectural consequences of social and psychological relations ... These are of course in a way very abstract things that seem very difficult to express physically. The israeli security fence is an example though - but what could a spatial concequence of being really annoyed with your mother, or falling in love with your roommate, be...?

In my project there are 3 people living and working... and as in all triangles, tensions very easely build up...even when they have guests. Their home is very open to friends and neighbors. But very complicated to be in because of constant loud arguments.

To try and work with all these issues I've attempted to create an object, that'll fit roughly as a building in 1:100, but more important - be something you can imagine yourself into, something that, like a childs toy, you can easily attach some kind of character to. I've tried to make it something that is both attractive and discusting... with some build in tensions... ambiguous, uncertain, without any clear conclusion as to how to look at it...

Here's a picture

Hope you don't all think I'm a discusting, bloodthirsty psycho now, hehe ... looking forward to some response...

love

Adam

Hello all...

Since I'll be doing a bit of travelling the next month I'd like to share my plans with our little community so I could have a beer and perhaps some advise along the way...

the 18. sept. I'll land in Zagreb only to leave again imediately... which means I will be in Belgrade the 19. and 20. - unfortunately probably pretty busy at daytime but evenings of and I would really like to see some of you lovely people there... Then we'll be in Sarajevo the 22. and 23. - if somebody there would take me to a nice bar I would be very happy... And then, luckily, we come back to Zagreb the 25. 26. (all day off) 27. and fly away again tuesday 28... unfortunately I've lost all my Croatian emails - so Jure, Ivona, Ivan, Ana... if you see this please get in touch so I can meet you in your beautifull city... :)))

And then from the 3. to the 10. of october I'll be with my class on a study tour in wonderful Prague...so, if there's any of you EASA-czechs who'll have time to show us where the best beer is served that would be supernice...

see you around (hopefully) love

Adam

PS @ the scnitzel-people: This very moment I'm in the process of doing my very own "body without organs" !!!

we're slowly, but steadily getting more organised for next year. for any concerns to special topics, write to one of the following e-mail-adresses:

generally, there is -> organiser@easa005.ch

other exisiting adresses to specific topics are -> workshops@easa005.ch -> lectures@easa005.ch -> visa@easa005.ch (nc's, please start sending info!) -> location@easa005.ch

marko, could you please put the "organiser-adress" in the contact list both in the swiss section (leave the personal ones too) and at the contact-point for lost countries? additionally i think it would be great if the appeal for lost countries to contact us would not only be on the bottom of the list!
