Eutopia 07: architecture, VJ’s, LaFundició, beatbox…

13.9.07

Maybe we should open a section dedicated exclusively to self-promotion… ahem. The fact is that next week we will be at the Eutopia 07 International Festival of Young Creation (Córdoba). The event’s program is, to say the least, disconcerting, and the festival’s cryptic website doesn’t help much… our participation is “specified” in some Collective Architecture Days in which we should present projecte3*, although in reality the days seem to be the excuse that Santiago Cirugeda has found to bring together a few groups that, in one way or another, have tried to approach architecture from, so to speak, ‘political’ perspectives and collective practices. Undoubtedly, the vagueness of the meeting will be its greatest virtue.

Here is the list, with their links, of the participating groups: alg-a (Pontevedra), ASA (Spain), Asociación AAAbierta (Granada), Asociación Jóvenes de Castuera (Badajoz), Asociación Proyecta (Castelló), Asociación Trincharte (Málaga), La Casa Invisible (Málaga), Cooperativa CIT-arte (Sevilla), Cooperativa Covijo (Madrid), Patio Maravillas (Madrid), La Prospe (Madrid), Straddle3 (Barcelona), and V de Vivienda (Madrid).

Through other channels, we have come across two events within the festival itself that we found amusing: one, the beatbox workshop that Chiu Longina and Dagus-Wan will be teaching (via alg-a) and two, the
Repeat Please: VJ Culture
seminar (which Juan Freire explains very well what it is about, we directly pass you the link to his blog) both events coordinated by Zemos98 within the Digital Culture Area.
