Saturday 18/06 @ Croatian Architects Association
The conference programme scheduled for Saturday 18th June at Croatian Architects Association (UHA) at Ban Josip Jelačić Square in Zagreb is open to the public. The discursive programme will be held from 11 am to 2 pm with thematic focus on creating alternative knowledge systems, communication interfaces and interaction platforms that have the potential to overturn the consequences of collective destruction and help build healthier communities. One of the topics is also decolonization as the main politics of cohabitation, and rethinking of anthropocentrism and practical aspects of artistic and curatorial narratives in the context of modifying social and ethical values, customs, routines and habits. Participants are Yiannis Colakides (NeMe), Arjon Dunnewind (Impakt), Charlotte Jarvis, Jurij Krpan (Kersnikova Institute), Tomislav Medak (Pirate Care), Davor Mišković (Drugo More), Sunčica Ostoić (KONTEJNER), Heracles Papatheodorou (Onassis Stegi), and Dinko Peračić (Platforma 9,81).
Zvučni piknik | Sunday 19/06 Pogon Jedinstvo, Močvara Club
The three-day conference culminates on Sunday 19th June in Pogon Jedinstvo and Močvara Club with concerts and performances starting at 5.30 p.m, with the premiere concert of Sešija – the youngest Croatian experimental band formed during KONTEJNER’s educative programme held in 2022. Programme mentors are musicians Nenad Sinkauz, Nenad Kovačić and Pavle Jovanović, and musicologist Davorka Begović, with mentors-musicians also playing a concert of their own. Sešija members are young teenagers, 13 to 14 years of age: Dan Herceg (drums), Bartol Knežević (guitar), Jan Knežević (synth), Mak Rizvanović (synth) and Filip Šarić (guitar).
Canadian new media artist, performer and composer Martin Messier presents his new audio-visual performance Echo Chamber. Eight years ago, Messier performed in Pogon Jedinstvo on his orchestra of sewing machines; this time he presents his new modular interface inspired by medical technologies and techniques enabling him to investigate resonance, light, shadows and the human body. This performance is scheduled twice, at 7.30 p.m. and 9 p.m.
In Močvara Club, a group of authors led by Peter Kutin will do an unusual kinetical audiovisual performance named ROTOЯ. Intesively accelerating a media bundle of sound, light, image and object, ROTOЯ transforms froma a sound image into a hologram as a fascinating sound body. Music programme of Zvučni piknik is accompanied by performances by Banana Zvuk and DJ, Osobna!.
Entry is free of admission for the entire programme.
