Self-producers of the world... unite!
Connectively, informally, to see each other face to face through the most social networking possible.
A simple aperitif, with wine and Trentino apples: one goal and no pretensions. To unite the communities that in design, art, craftsmanship, the makers scene, and new individual enterprises in all experimental and trans-disciplinary fields are reflecting on the idea of self-production. Obviously, each in their own way. With their history, values, and experiences.
No dogma. No single way of thinking.
Just the pleasure of looking each other in the face and talking. Maybe commenting on the works of those participating. A zero-impact personal connection experiment. Experimental and naïve. To bring a community together.

format

Chatting with a glass of wine in hand and discussing: this is what we aim for. To spark this discussion.
A location provided by Careof and two “spaces”:

  1. The Italian-style “Peciacucia”: a corner set up with a computer and video projector. 3 minutes to project and present your own work.
    Self-limited times with true fair play.
    Open registration (it will happen right there, on the spot, without any reservation or filtering, with absolute respect for the self-built list)
  2. The “exhibition table”: a long table with easels where anyone can bring and display (without logos, captions…) their own work.
    The idea is to turn individual works into “pieces of conversation,” a way to ignite discussions, dialogues, and exchanges full of curiosity and passion.
