..its the first time that we meet in such a workshopframe – first time for Topo and omi, but also first time with Malex.. and it goes well. well, it could go much better, it could be better organized, but the GRF-people have other probl€ms..fighting with moneyproblems to keep their own kunst-online-project alive.. ..en fin – we brought back home what we were hoping to bring: an answer how to deal with geanets memory..there will be a kind of oblivion..data will fade out, but not completly fade away.. and can be re_membered if certain interests touch them again.. soon (..) u’ll understand by playing with this domain.. 58Kb thanks..Jan and Lieve.. Tom from Brussels, Maria..Nico, Peter..all of u..who came and helped us to undestand better.. and to Simon Morris..who did a kind of contra_dictionary speach_performance the last clue-day.. showing us a project he did..re-writing Freud.. 96Kb Omi, Topo and Malex having a last belgian beerevening with their hosts Lincy and Franky from the bed and breakfast place their were living these days.. they are profesors...Franky for history, Lincy for Latin..Latin? wow, we might would have learned something if we would have had such an atractive teacher..’yes!’ says Franky ‘among aaaall latin teachers in Belgium Lincy is a sex bomb!’ see u in Sevilla amig@s..bye.. first leaves Malex.. back to Zurich..bye Mali, lets do things like that more often! when will you stop working for this software company there and live with us? then Topo..back to Mama Pi and the LOLAbelly.. omi continues his trip > to Antwerp and Middelburg.. checking out this invition to curate..the people/spaces.. ..while Topo and omi are waiting for the trains they see this gothic mix.. a media skyline.. last memory before their ways are ramifying.. ‘adios babba top! ‘ciao uncle funkle’ ta’ pronto en el horno andaluz’.. 68Kb ..and while trains roll in three directions the phone rings in sevilla.. la Escuela tecnica superior de arquitectura de Sevilla calls... they have seen what we did for casa + o -.. the website .. and they liked it so much that they want us to do the redesign of theirs.. bravo, guay..venga, nos vemos pronto pa’ hablar del tema.. ...omi and Bart meet in the MuHKA.. talking about what and how they imagined to have c a l c active...okay, first omi will meet Mister Rutger and his Vleeshal, then he’ll be back to see the collection..the things from which c a l c is invited to choose..and to present.. ..Middelburg..>Zeeland..Holland.. a city like a kind of dutch Mandala.. but it wasn’t the core which gave this form, it was war.. ‘hola Rutger, thanks for picking me up’ seeing the Vleeshal for the first time > a gothic butcher-market which then became the townhall..was destroyed and renovated by the fashists and became then later the center for contemporary art > 75Kb (..the image above was done later..on the 23rd of June when omi came back.and the setting up started already..) having lunch with Rutger (director), Angela (curator) and Kees (chief technician) in Restaurant Vriendshap.. now its clear: the piece which will fill the Vleeshal is supposed to be Uffizi Porte, which was bought by the MuHKA and which we developed with Michelangelo about 2,5 years ago.. and “around” we shall select works from MuHKAs collection.. we still cant imagine how this ‘self celebration’ could work if we’ll be the curators, but lets have first an overview on MuHKAs collection.. collect as much as possible information and discuss this problem then back in sevilla.. ..omi meets Peter Verwimp in Antwerp...remember Peter? he was the cooking DJ in UNIDEE 2004.. ..Peter’s busy.. painting a flat of a friend..Charlottes flat.. omi wants to be co_busy.. different kind of busy..so they paint together.. two nights, while miss Charlotte is somewhere in the states.. they do a good job and have fun wasting energy.. everthing’s white now.. exept one little corner on the ceiling which they leave unpainted.. like a memory_cube, a flip_space as a present for Charlotte..and the first tiny ‘common project’ Peter and omi did..good start! 35Kb > 2nd OF MAY going through the material of MuHKAs collection with Angela.. all they can see they see, all they can read they read.. but they can’t touch anything, they can’t see the real things, just weak virtual shadows which are definitely NOT a base for deciding.. we got a problem! the only way to deal with that..the only one we can imagine now..is to make this problem a project.. to somehow work on this ‘archive’ which isn’t an archive as it should be..could be.. lets see it closer back in Sevilla..all together.. Peter and omi meet again.. byebye_night.. when they walk through Antwerps dark night streets they all of the sudden find themselfs in a stange surreal situation.. actually nortereal..anyway, there is this young and rich man sitting in his fat luxury car..talking to an old man who got an old rusty bike with him.. when P and o walk by, the old man, who looks like a Karl Moses Marx, asks them: ‘whats the most important thing in life’ ‘hmmm, LOVE they say almost simultaneous..’and whats that?’ says the old man..’thats the energy which makes things become alive..’ that was the keyword for the old man.. he starts and doesn’t end until P and o leave to give a speach about his universal view.. which is quite drunk..quite weird.. but also quite beautiful at this spot, at this late hour.. the young man in the car looks like his pupil.. ..good night folks.. yes, the only revolution which is left is the loveolutiuon..’bye Peter..see u soon..when i’ll be back in Antwerp and Middelburg round the 20st of June...’ > END OF APRIL ..while in the streets of Antwerp these three strange man say goodbyes, mothership Sevilla got a paper ready..ca_pa proposes geografia affettiva again > Manresa.. a respond to the invitation which reached us some months ago.. > 4th OF MAY happy new year Mama Pi and Baby LoLa!! Pi_rthday 2day! dOOble_u_pi_piday..happy new year.. lolaño! ..but..of course omi won’t leave ant_werp be4 he didn’t meet Tom de Luxe.. remember? he was the comic_angel who helped/solved us so much when we were fighting with all these problems while setting up the MuHKA_ cittadellartearte_ show.. Tom le Grande.. ‘maybe we can colaborate again Tom?’ .. ‘would be great, let me know what i can do..’ ..’skype ya soon brotha comix!’ on his flight back omi stops in Madrid for some hours and meets ~ finally ~ Maria Sande, the communication boss of solidaridad internacional.. they became online_friends while making these maga_si_nes together..and just had to have an offlinexperience.. are they offlinefriends too? coño pues si joder :-) !.. > 13th OF MAY > Eva leaves to the Fidjis to meet Marisa la mama capitana..and Lois.. 3 weeks..or 4.. on the other side of the worryworld.. take good care.. enjoy.. forget about everything and bring a lot of storries with you! ..the rest of ca_pa’s working on the archi_uni web now... space-net.. spatial webbing.. arch_i_texture..we talk/play a lot about how to translate the building itself into a web..a visual information in more senses than icon_kitsch.. a navegation metaphor abstracted and pointing back to the real thing about and in which all contents are turning.. > very first sketch we did.. the groundfloors and associated fields of content ~ we’re just analyzing this whole chaos the got now..and playing on first layers..> 26Kb ..for Middelburg we propose a game which intents to generate a ludic archive > kind of “be a curator for a day play” .. we imagine how this game can output some serious results on which the development of their archive will be easier..because the access gets streched.. in order to play the game we first of all have to develop a system..a grid in which each work has its data-bed.. do we have time to do that? only if the MuHKA and the Vleeshal agree 100% on co_risking.. first proposal we sent was that one..
