Temporary Helsinki week of 26 June
Darts and drinks at Democracy: Wot 'appened?, 8 June
This week features a Magic Mondays sound meditation by Ava Grayson (tonight!), Christina Stadlbauer's Works in Progress presentation, and the second meeting of the re-launched 'Svamp' sound improvisation workshops. More information on these can be found below.
Eldarin Lerya Vanda is cancelledThe meeting of Eldarin Lerya Vanda (ELF/ELV) that was scheduled for Wednesday of this week has been cancelled. Steve will reschedule soon and we'll post information here (and on the website) as soon as we have it.
Open Time to close in JulyAs most of the Temporary regulars will be on holiday in July, and there haven't been enough pledges to Open Time to schedule a month-long block, we are pausing the Open Time concept for a month. Other experiments can still be proposed and scheduled, but Temporary will not be open at all other potential times as a general workspace. We hope that Open Time will return on 1 August. It will be a quiet month at Temporary for sure, but the system will still operate for proposals, pledges and scheduling as normal, and there are already a few experiments on the calendar.
If you have thoughts, comments, feelings or other ideas about this decision or anything else about Temporary, please bring them to the Works in Progress: Christina Stadlbauer experiment this week. After Christina's presentation we'll have a general discussion about things, which will serve as the last general meeting/gathering until August.
