Living Spaces Tram operates from Friday 25.09 to Sunday 27.09 Pixelache comes back to Helsinki! Living Spaces concentrates on the urban environment of Helsinki and tries to use any potential city space, whether public, private or in-between, as a playground for the festival’s manifestations of creative and participatory culture. Instead of being based in one static location, the festival employs cultural decentralisation as a methodology, spreading its activities across the centre and periphery of this dynamic, constantly evolving city. Living Spaces encourages the investigation of everyday urban life, understood as a dynamic, networked, self-regulating system filled with complex and chaotic interactions. Through emerging artistic, technological and social practices the festival will focus on new concepts, inventive strategies and methods for the flexible interpretation and exploration of public and private urban space. Our goal is to re-imagine the city as a playground, a sandbox for positive change and an opportunity for civic engagement and new awareness of cityscape. livingspaces.pixelache.ac requires registration on the festival webpage 14:30 - 17:00 // starts at Kansalaistori, in front of no registration needed the Makasiinit ruin F URBAN FORAGING RIDE PRE-FESTIVAL WORKSHOPS cycling adventure to public fruit trees, nuts and berry bushes 18.09 17:00 - 20.09 22:00 // Seppo Renvall park S RECYCLING OLYMPIC GAMES 2015 17:00 - 19:00 // Herttoniemitalo alternative sports event focused on creative E FERMENT LAB WORKSHOP 2 waste reuse finalised with award ceremony for fermentation of urban plants ”UpCycling Champion” on 22.09 18:00 21:00 - 00:00 // Ihana Baari/Mad House 21.09 10:00 - 24.09 17:00 // Kääntöpöytä P PIXELACHE OPENING EVENT L ECHO SURVEYS FOR LIVING SPACES WORKSHOP meet others, have a drink and enjoy some DJs sonic exploration of Helsinki 21.09 18:30 - 22.09 16:00 // Taidelinja office U LIVING FICTIONS WORKSHOP storytelling and fiction in relation to experiences THURSDAY 24 SEPTEMBER of city space 11:00 - 15:00 // Alpaca Fuente farm, Lohja 22.09 17:30 - 19:30 // Herttoniemitalo G ALPACA ORACLE E FERMENT LAB WORKSHOP 1 help and advice for humankind from alpacas fermentation of local veggies (free bus trip starts in the front of Kiasma) 12:00 - 18:00 // Kulosaari metro station tunnel J STREET LINE CRITICS - ON TOUR (GAMING THE WEDNESDAY 23 SEPTEMBER SYSTEM) urban poetry interventions 10:00 - 15:00 // Helsinki Think Company, Viikki 16:00 - 18:00 // Laituri Campus M WELTSTADT EXHIBITION OPENING + D FOODYCLE 2015 DISCUSSION presentations and workshops on the current living archive seeking emerging practices for state of food in the region urban life 19:00 - 20:00 // MUU Galleria 14:30 - 17:00 // Seppo Renvall Park N STRATAGRIDS EXHIBITION OPENING S OPEN RECYCLING OLYMPIC VILLAGE spatial and material-themed video installation presentation of Recycling Olympic Games outcomes + food! 19:00 - ??:?? // Wallininkatu 9B B THE FIGHT NIGHT (GAMING THE SYSTEM) 15:00 - 17:00 // private flat board game inspired by everyday domestic OUR CUISINE=OUR STORIES SESSION A Arcada // Jan-Magnus Janssonin aukio 1 relationships sharing food and stories B Fight Night Flat // Wallininkatu 9B 16:00 - 17:30 // check tram route map for details C Goethe-Institut // Salomonkatu 5 B DISCORDION (GAMING THE SYSTEM) D Helsinki Think Company // Latokartanonkaari 3 FRIDAY 25 SEPTEMBER interactive sonic sculpture performed by the E Herttoniemitalo // Kettutie 8 B tram F Kansalaistori 11:00 - 17:00 // Arcada university of applied G Kiasma // Mannerheiminaukio 2 20:00 - 02:00 // Mad House sciences Korkeasaari // Blåbärslandsstigen 12 P FESTIVAL CLUB H A N2: LIVING CHATTER I Krunan keikat HQ // Meritullinkatu 6 knowledge production lab evening of music and performance J Kulosaari metro station tunnel 12:00 - 18:00 // Kulosaari metro station tunnel K Kuvataideakatemia // Elimäenkatu 25 A J STREET LINE CRITICS - ON TOUR (GAMING THE L Kääntöpöytä // Tallikatu SYSTEM) SATURDAY 26 SEPTEMBER M Laituri // Narinkka 2 urban poetry interventions N MUU Galleria // Lönnrotinkatu 33 O MaaTila // Albertinkatu 19 12:00 - 16:00 // Third Space 11:00 - 15:00 // Kuvataideakatemia V HUMAN-NON-HUMAN-INTERFACES WORKSHOP K USB DEAD DROPS WORKSHOP P Mad House // Suvilahti building 5 experimenting with the space between the living guerilla offline file-sharing in public space Q Piritori // Vaasanpuistikko and non-living R Pixelache office // Suvilahti building 7 11:00 - 15:00 // Kääntöpöytä Seppo Renvall park / Nilsiänkatu 5 L PIXELACHE KIRPPUTORI S 13:00 - 17:30 // check tram route map for details T Sörnäinen, next to Lidl / Hämeentie LIVING SPACES TRAM flea market where you can book a table for no Taidelinja office // Hakaniemi metro station festival centre, coffee and audio-visual cost U installations V Third Space // Tarkk’ampujankatu 18 tram route 12:00 - 19:00 // Laituri 20:00 - 02:00 // Mad House THROUGHOUT ENTIRE FESTIVAL 17.09 - 27.09 // Sörnäinen, next to Lidl M MESH NETWORKING WORKSHOP P FESTIVAL CLUB T R.A.T.I.S.M.
