The space

The space had different functions.

It was a semi-private space, our office in which we worked every day, preparing the upcoming events, writing emails, working for some side-projects, etc. A place for working, talking, hanging around, eating, playing with the cats, making plans for the future, and the place where people dropped by (friends just willing to take a coffee with us, people from the street curious to see what’s going on there, people interested in the project wanting to find out more details about it, people wanting to read things from the archives, etc).

It was a semi-public space during the different workshops that were open for the public but which were mostly important and meaningful for the people actually involved in these workshops.

It was a public space during the presentations, discussions and performances.

For some events we left the rooms and we went outside in the public space of the city, trying to make a very small, very discrete and very temporary intervention in the pace of huge Bucharest, a one micro second brake in the rhythm of this strange city were you can so clearly see how the grandiose socialist utopia/distopia is a background for the all-encompassing capitalism.
