OFF Festival Katowice August 2–4, 2019

OFF Festival Katowice August 2–4, 2019 Going with the flow is easy, but we’re no fans of easy solutions. We launched the OFF Festival in 2006 not to win friends but to intrigue and inspire people, to pose questions, and to provoke outrage and discussion. The history of the OFF Festival Katowice is made up of dozens, hundreds, perhaps thousands of testimonies to the fact that music changes people. People, in turn, change the world. And we all know that’s something the world really needs right now. The OFF Festival is a place you go to discover fascinating new music or to see alternative legends performing in Poland for the first time. Our invitations have been accepted by a long list of artists, including Iggy Pop, Patti Smith, PJ Harvey, The National, The Smashing Pumpkins, Primal Scream, The Flaming Lips, My Bloody Valentine, and Charlotte Gainsbourg. We’re the only festival in this part of Europe to feature such a strong lineup of artists from every corner of the globe, from both Americas to Africa and Asia. But the OFF Festival is also a showcase of the best alternative music in Poland today, from Kult and Molesta to Hańba!, Furia, and Zbigniew Wodecki (who played his first full show with Mitch & Mitch at OFF). The OFF Festival is an all-encompassing experience. Along with outstanding music performed in a friendly, welcoming setting, OFF features a number of exciting side events, including author appearances and Q&As at the Literary Café, screenings at the OFF Cinema, and playtime at PiaskOFFnica, a special area set aside for our youngest guests in the quietest corner of the festival grounds, where children can take part in games and workshops under the supervision of caretakers and counselors. OFF Festival audiences get to enjoy an excellent selection of dining options that wouldn’t be out of place at a gourmet food festival. A carefully-selected list of vendors provides a top-notch menu: Whether you’re vegan or gluten-free, a picky five-year-old or really into local cuisine, you’re guaranteed to find something to suit your taste. Our bold programming and consistent approach combined with our openness towards the challenges of an ever-changing world make the OFF Festival a favorite with fans, the media, and the music industry. The event has won numerous awards, including the prestigious European Festival Award for Best Medium-Sized Festival. We also made it onto the elite list of festivals nominated in the category of best program. In April 2014 TIME Magazine placed the OFF Festival Katowice on its global list of 14 music festival to check out in that year. In 2017 The Guardian ranked OFF among the top 10 European festivals. And the entire world learned about Katowice and Polish bands like Hańba!, Sutari, and Coals when the American radio station KEXP in 2015 ran a series of videos about the festival, shot in locations that included the Porcelana Śląska factory and the neighborhood of Nikiszowiec .

OFF Festival Katowice 2018 Announcing the First Artists We’Re Pleased to Announce the First Artists That Are Confirmed to Perform at the Next OFF Festival
OFF Festival Katowice 2018 Announcing the First Artists We’re pleased to announce the first artists that are confirmed to perform at the next OFF Festival. They’re original, they’re psychedelic and they’re kaleidoscopic: Grizzly Bear, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah performing Some Loud Thunder, John Maus and Marlon Williams are coming to Katowice in August. Get your OFF Festival passes now at a special early- bird prices. There’s no better Christmas gift than that! Grizzly Bear If there’s one band on the US indie scene today that can blaze new trails in American folk music while remaining faithful to the lessons of the Beach Boys, and that can be as catchy as they are challenging, blending jazz and art rock with pop, then that band is, without a doubt, Grizzly Bear. But it would be unfair to brand this Brooklyn quartet as a group of savvy counterfeiters: their music — a dense web of gripping and at times slightly psychedelic sonic ideas — is a purely original invention. It’s also one that’s garnered rave reviews from audiences and critics alike since their debut Horn of Plenty (2004). Grizzly Bear’s follow-up Yellow House (ranked among the top albums of 2006 by The New York Times and Pitchfork) secured their spot in the top echelons of alternative rock, while later efforts, including this year’s Painted Ruins, only reinforced their status. But as we’ll all see on a warm summer night this August, this bear’s natural habitat is the stage. John Maus His music has been described as a mash-up of punk, catchy soundtracks to ‘80s blockbusters, the unremitting poppiness of Moroder, and the spiritual qualities of Medieval and Baroque music.

OFF Festival Katowice 2018 Widzimy Przyszłość, Słyszymy Głosy
OFF Festival Katowice 2018 Widzimy przyszłość, słyszymy głosy Legendarne pieśniarki z Bułgarii, charyzmatyczna Zola Jesus i Skalpel w towarzystwie jazzowego big bandu – to tylko część wykonawców, których udział w naszym święcie muzyki mamy przyjemność dziś potwierdzić. Zola Jesus „Ten album jest głęboko osobistym portretem straty, pogodzenia się i współczucia dla łańcuchów, którymi przykuto nas do bezwzględnych praw natury” – tak Zola Jesus zapowiadała wydaną w ubiegłym roku, swoją piątą płytę „Okovi”. W tytule rzeczywiście chodzi o okowy – swojsko brzmiące słowo to nawiązanie do słowiańskiego pochodzenia amerykańskiej artystki. Materiał nagrywała w małej chatce, w lesie, walcząc z depresją i wewnętrznymi demonami. Wyszła jej rzecz równie intymna, co uniwersalna. Mroczna, hipnotyczna, ale też uwodząca za pierwszym przesłuchaniem. Gotycki pop, dark wave, art pop – muzykę Zola Jesus można określać wieloma różnymi szyldami, za to jej głos trudno opisać słowami. Le Mystère des Voix Bulgares (The Mystery of Bulgarian Voices) Zespół znany wcześniej jako Le Mystere Des Voix Bulgares, czyli bułgarskie pieśniarki równie tajemnicze, co wspaniałe. Chór kobiecy, którego korzenie sięgają lat 50. i nagrań tradycyjnych pieśni na potrzeby państwowej telewizji. Ich pierwszy krok poza granice kraju sprowokowało zainteresowanie ze strony szwajcarskiego producenta Marcela Celliera, zafascynowanego kulturą muzyczną Europy Wschodniej. To on zebrał pieśni chóru na serii płyt „Le Mystere des Voix Bulgares”, które dały zespołowi nową nazwę i popularność na całym globie, a Cellierowi nagrodę Grammy. Od tamtej pory The Mystery of the Bulgarian Voices podróżują po świecie i zadziwiają wielobarwną paletą głosów wszystkich, którzy chcą słuchać. My chcemy. Skalpel Big Band Nie trzeba ich przedstawiać fanom dobrej muzyki – płytami wydanymi w Ninja Tune duet Skalpel przyczynił się do renesansu polskiego jazzu, wpisując go w nowy kontekst elektronicznej muzyki klubowej.

“Urban Labyrinths”: the Identity of Cities and the Creation of Their Images As Tourist Attractions
TECHNICAL TRANSACTIONS CZASOPISMO TECHNICZNE ARCHITECTURE ARCHITEKTURA 10-A/2014 DAGMARA CHYLIŃSKA*, GERARD KOSMALA** “URBAN LABYRINTHS”: THE IDENTITY OF CITIES AND THE CREATION OF THEIR IMAGES AS TOURIST ATTRACTIONS. THE CASE OF THE BACKYARDS AND LANES OF LUBLIN, WROCLAW AND KATOWICE „LABIRYNTY MIEJSKIE”: TOŻSAMOŚĆ MIASTA A KSZTAŁTOWANIE JEGO WIZERUNKU JAKO ATRAKCJI TURYSTYCZNEJ NA PRZYKŁADZIE PODWÓRZY I ZAUŁKÓW LUBLINA, WROCŁAWIA I KATOWIC Abstract Tourists are tired of mass tourism and are therefore seeking places and experiences they could call genuine and different. In city tourism, focus is being increasingly shifted towards direct and authentic experience of urban space through spontaneous contact with the space itself and the inhabitants who create it. The authors, on the basis of three Polish cities being known as tourist destinations, analyzes the role of backyards and lanes in building up the identity of a city and the way their image as a tourist attraction is created. Keywords: backyards, lanes, identity of a city, image of a city, tourist attraction Streszczenie Zmęczeni turystyką masową turyści poszukują odmienności i autentyzmu miejsc oraz doświadczeń z nimi związanych. W turystyce miejskiej coraz więcej uwagi zwraca się na bezpośredniość i prawdziwość do- świadczania przestrzeni miejskiej poprzez spontaniczny kontakt zarówno z nią samą, jak i jej wytwórcami − mieszkańcami miasta. Autorzy artykułu na przykładzie trzech turystycznych miast Polski analizują rolę podwórzy i zaułków w budowaniu tożsamości miasta, konfrontując jednocześnie wykorzystanie ich poten- cjału z kształtowaniem turystycznego wizerunku miasta. Słowa kluczowe: podwórka, zaułki, tożsamość miasta, wizerunek miasta, atrakcja turystyczna * Ph.D. Dagmara Chylińska, Institute of Geography and Regional Development, University of Wroclaw. ** Ph.D. Gerard Kosmala, The Jerzy Kukuczka Academy of Physical Education in Katowice.

At the festival, we see games that reimagine the act of gaming–what can it do? What can it mean? We see games that think critically about learning, teaching, playing, and storytelling.” – Jordan Shapiro, Forbes.com “Since 2004, the conference has pushed at the limits of what's possible in a video game, helping bring the field into the mainstream. Recent keynote speakers have included retired U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, who in 2008 oversaw development of the popular iCivics games, and former Vice President Al Gore, who in 2011 told festival attendees, ‘Games are the new norm.’” – Greg Toppo, USA Today “Far removed from the military battles, zombie attacks and alien uprisings that dominate the multibillion-dollar video game industry, Games for Change is focused on lesser-known titles that treat the medium as something more than entertainment. The organization’s festival has become a platform to introduce video games with altruistic goals.” – Laura Parker, New York Times “This year's Games for Change Festival teams up with the Tribeca Film Festival to broaden its scope and approach to the discussion and examination of games dedicated to social change.
