In a sauna, people meet strangers and exchange stories while absorbing heat being naked and sweaty. In this workshop we brought the sauna to a step further: we absorbed heat, stories, gestures, words, objects, skills, dreams and sweat them out to other people, re-enacting what we have learned. Also naked, why not. We learnt how to live, how to breathe, how to make a kebab, how to embody old wisdom, how to tie shoes the proper way. All you need is a fan, a towel and a body. A kebab stick, a drink, some snackies. Participants developed a deeper perspective on what it means to operate within a complex identity such as the city and gained skills to open their own kebab shop.

This exposition presents a format designed for experiencing and experimenting with writing as a collective practice of weaving textualities from different sources.

The art of Raoul Servais is concerned with the most serious criticisms of 1968 and looks for the freedom and justice that humans pursue, touch a lot of areas and contexts from religion to science, mythology to science fiction, psychology to culture: authoritarian regimes that eliminate science; armies trying to sweep colors from the world; executives trying to share the body of a dead mermaid; filmmakers trying to be faster than their shadows; bosses who incorporate hippies' colorful ideas into their own benefits; 'super powers' that invite people to religion with theocratic gas bombs. Consumption, technology, authority, unhappiness and lost meaning woven with commodity values.

Pourquoi commander un nouveau Star Wars était-il nécessaire?

Cet article interprète l'adhésion au passé qui le conçoit comme l'idéal et la véritable manière de faire progresser, en gardant les yeux fermés sur le fait que l’évolution culturelle peut rendre ce qui était "sage" même inapproprié ou nuisible. Les études de cas présentent donc une dimension globale de l’époque autoritaire en Turquie, allant jusqu’aux idéologies cachées derrière le voile des sciences. L’idéologie autoritaire en Turquie est une question de droit et d’exception. Le fil qui relie aujourd’hui la Turquie et le monde moderne est l’idéologie capitaliste. Les habitants d’un même “village global” se réveillent et partent de chez eux vers des chemins différents où ils peuvent se retrouver avec des idéologies de négation, remplacées par des sciences confidentielles dans un monde qui croit en l’ouverture et la démocratie, qui est toujours au cœur des pratiques scientifiques.
