Du är här: Engagera dig i Sverige -> Are you out yet?! 2016 -> Letter to participants
dear participant of ayoy 2016
We are so excited about the training soon to take place in Växjö and we hope you share our enthusiasm - we can’t wait to meet you all and get started together!
Our heads are now full of thoughts about public space activation and our schedule is getting packed with different creative and reflective activities aiming at dissecting, discussing, commenting and disrupting the current and possible uses for public space together with you.
We hope that our program will be a starting point for an ongoing process of relevant reflection and dialogue as well as provide some hands-on tools, methods and skills for interacting with public space as an artist, activist and/or involved citizen.
As a part of the program we will also offer several opportunities for participatory engagement and therefore we can promise each and every one of you that your most passionate concerns will for sure be included in the agenda!
Please come ready to share your passion, skills, interest and best practices with the group in an engaged and committed way.
Before the arrival we ask you to bring some local magazines as material for our workshops and prepare a PechaKucha (instructions below). If you want to prepare further please think of powerful ideas that really grab you to the point that you will take personal responsibility to make sure that something gets done. If nothing occurs to you at this moment, that is OK, and if you have more than one issue or opportunity, that is fine too. It will all have its space and time during our time together.
Looking forward to meeting you all in August!
Keep Calm and See you Soon!
Best wishes,
Petra & Anna
PECHA KUCHA
PechaKucha is a short and intensive presentation format in which 20 images are shown for 20 seconds each. As a way to introduce yourself to the other participants of the training we want you to prepare a PechaKucha presentation about yourselves and/or something which you feel passionate about - during the first day the floor will be yours for exactly 6 min and 40 seconds!
Please send us your 20 images by the 14th of August the latest, name them 1-20 in the order you want them to appear, save them as jpg or gif and send them to checkin@globalakronoberg.se
