when we see Michelangelo we hug each other like never before..

we did it! now the work starts..the fine work..many meetings, discussions and surprises are awaiting us..

..like Nigerian Girls from Josep Maria Martín..in the bar Paris Texas..crowde..the video-cinema-box Josep and Hyde Kobanawa built is stuffed with people..video..young people living in Finland playing young nigerian prostitutes.. giving interviews..talking about their way and problems..

later..to the beach°, the club where the transnational republic installed their imigration office, a bar..a kitchen and the bank, where you have to change your €uros into Payolas, the official currency of the TNR..o, and an amazing programme! everybody's around to..night..until the next morning we're celebrating the first day of BIG..happy new month!..and the change of the working climate..slower now, please slower and more eye to eye, I to I, more sms to sms..this text is actually a patchwork of 12723 sms's

hangoverday..at 11:00 we have the first discussion in the arena: COM&COM discuss with a priest and the public..about their project of the shrouds and the skulls..and Torino and its shroud.. all talks in the Arena we are streaming life to the internet, video documentation tapes can be ordered on this page..

Maria and Patrizia, the ladies who coordinate the Arena found a good Arena-moderator - Vincente Jacomuzzi..he knows, he likes and hes used to talk and listen..could have a tv-show..

Margit Czenki and Christoph Schaefer (Revolution Non Stop), who were invited to show PARK FICTION at documenta11 this year ask us if we want to give them material about a park for L.A… they'd like to show also some sister projects..sure, we'll ask l°°ks to send you a CD with all we have..trust..do what you like with it..

21st - Tal Adler (pettek.org) presents his project in the Arena.. so good to see Tal again..and..again.. his presentation is good, surprising, well visited, discussed..to have a Pettek-member in the Knesset could really mean..as we know Tal and his projects.. that something like a transreligious artspirit inspires the near east problem..one seat at least..yes, this sounds very naďve, but who ever tried it like pettek does? Tal also will be part again of Arte Al Centro 2002..see u in Biella again..in July! take care!

los amigos de El Cartel and from El Perro are leaving already.. was great to have you here, thanks a lot, the posters El Cartel was spreading all around the city (grazie Maria Fragolina!!) and the installation El Perro did in cavallerizza - pure spanish rootfood! see you in Madrid..or in naVia.. or in Torino..

black sunday, everyone is an rTMark and on the other side are the toy soldiers..much more than rTMarks..ladies and gentleman, see two of the most famous artgroups of the world soaping their opera! for further information please contact directly the pursuant www's..

Martin Roth, Samantha Longoni and c a l c are happy about the ETNICITtÀ-success…people answer to the project a lot and it seems they answer sensible..Michelangelo, Songül, Lina Theodorou (the right arm for the free world), Judith and omi are leaving to Lago Maggiore..they are showing there some video works from artists like Songül and Lina..and Michael Blum (Laborinto)..it's a part of the biennial..regional activities.. nice little city..sleeping, but some awake videos..we meet an elegant bunch of interested people and tell them what we think why these are interesting works and where we think art is going..art is going out.. today the transnational republic is in the Arena..together with Andor Orand they are presenting their idea for a trans-hyper- texture for free minded people..and how this can become politically a strong transformative force..they also believe in (an own) money..big hope..big project..big beat..
