The Convivial Labour Force Project / Projet main d'oeuvre conviviale
(2021)
author(s): Julien Gagnon Rouillard
published in: Research Catalogue
The Convivial Labour Force Project fits somewhere between the nomadic fablab and the anti-business. Flirting with the limits of a free maker space and applied conviviality, the project is inspired by a desire of reappropriating social economy and questioning the meaning of transaction within mutual aid.
The goal is simple: to offer one’s free collaboration in a diversity of projects - through cabinetmaking to sewing including cooking and horticulture – all while aligning the co-performed tasks with the principles of economic degrowth, conviviality and horizontality.

Projet main d’œuvre conviviale s’inscrit quelque part entre le fablab nomade et l’anti-entreprise, aux limites du maker space gratuit et de la convivialité appliquée, inspiré par un désir de réappropriation de l’économie sociale et une remise en question de la transaction dans l’entraide.
L’objectif est simple : offrir gratuitement sa collaboration dans de multiples projets – de l’ébénisterie à la couture en passant par la cuisine et l’horticulture – tout en alignant les tâches ainsi co-effectuées avec les principes de la décroissance économique, de la convivialité et de l’horizontalité.
The Role of Sound as a Component of Urban Experience
(2021)
author(s): Greta Pundzaite

The Role of Sound as a Component of Urban Experience is an audio-video essay that approaches urban sound as study material for sensorial analysis. An experiential experiment is carried when retransforming/playing with sensorial components of an urban dweller. Research focuses on the record of urban sound in relation to image and its proximity to cinematic/cinematographic experience. Playing with sensorial components reveals not only their influence on our ever-day perceiving of urban space but also the aesthetical nature of casual walks in the city. In other words, an analytical approach to urban sound reveals how cinematic everyday urban experience is or how cinema's sensorial base finds itself in the one of an urban dweller.
FERRY EXPERIMENT: READING LINE AND SOUND | PHYSICAL MOVEMENT LAB
(2021)
author(s): Greta Pundzaite
published in: Research Catalogue
Ferry Experiment: Reading Line and Sound aims to grasp movement in different artistic elements and trace their interconnection. A sound of a ferry trip Lisbon-Berreiro is recorded as if from two differing ears of a passenger. One traces the movement of detailed noise inside while the other lowers itself to the machinery and gives an impulse of the repetitive swing of moving water. A drawing is created as a result, dismounted to its detail and used together with the sounds as a continuation searching itself in the movement of a body.
Isolated Attractors- TTT2020- Conference
(2021)
author(s): Sergio Patricio
published in: Research Catalogue
Attractors cause attraction, collision, repulsion and distraction between different poles of charged energies. Latour makes a metaphor about these attractors in society and politics by defining many layers of interaction between the poles, decades after quantum physics observed strange attractors in chaotic systems of particles. Initial conditions could make a difference in terms of observation of strange attractors in art practices, where artists have the access to continue their own art practice, and who have also faced the art market and non patronage within a competitive society of succession. The proposal observes an isolated artist, connected virtually to the environment, but losing social skills, because of social distancing. Isolation in artists is present here and now in today's societies, with society’s own practices infected by worldwide news, porn, violence, loneliness and a vacuum in daily life routines. What kind of attractors proceed in an artist’s own art practice while in isolation, at home in a shared “WG”(shared flat) , without the resources to develop their own art and without the possibility of success and social empowerment? Which kind of strange attractor could possibly define the steps and procedures of this new generation of artists who don’t feel supported and who feel isolated in their “home” artwork? This paper attempts to observe this idea based on a few cases by comparing interviews with artists isolated by Convid-19 in 2020 in different countries.
