Temporary is closing on 1 September 2017. No further experiments will be scheduled, though you can still pledge Temps as supported experiments may form a starting programme for the post-Temporary project.

Kuvaus:

Democracy: What happened? is an experiment to dissect the corpse of the democratic process on the night of the 2016 US presidential election, aka the western world's ultimate clusterfuck of a flawed political process/reality show.


In addition to watching the election results roll in, throughout the evening various subprogrammes will take place that will examine the current state of democracy and play with the theme and format using those who choose to attend as subjects. We look to Temporary's community to propose workshops, talks, performances or other sub-experiments that will start around (or before) midnight and run until around 3:00 AM, when the first results will start to be announced.


This is not just a chance to rant and rave, but hopefully some sort of way we can collectively, therapeutically work through the crisis undergoing liberal capitalism today, so let's consider anything to be fair game: Brexit, Finnish politics, Eurovision, or the fake-democratic system of proposals/pledges at Temporary.


Please use this proposal page to propose your own ideas as comments (below!).


One week before (1 November), we will democratically "vote" to choose the programme. On election night (8 November) we'll actually do it. In addition to whatever activities take place, we will also try to collectively prepare food and drink so we can all get through this together. And bring pillows, it's gonna be a late night.

Tavoitteet:

* To rapidly, collectively programme an evening of interactions around a theme


* To examine and critique systems of power


* To genuinely seek a better understanding of politics and our own agency as creative, independent people


* To support each other through what might be a painful evening


* To think about what might come next

Aikataulu:

8 November from 22:00 - 05:00; also 1 November: voting session held during Temporary's regular Tuesday night

I'll bring with me a big map of the world. It will be a usual map however representing the globe upside down. Based on that we will tell the stories of domination, politics and economy of the countries pictured there. Lets see how our Americentric/Europocentric ways will survive that.

Proposal: Democratic Confessions


There will be a voting booth constructed in Temporary for the 1 November vote on this programme. On 8 November, throughout the night, the booth will be open for anyone to enter and re-cast as a confession booth. Participants will be interviewed about their feelings about citizenship, politics, and democracy, plus anything else they'd like to get off their chests. Interviews will be filmed, if they consent, and I'll give 50 Temps to everyone who does.

Proposal from christina.stadlbauer (who didn't bring her computer):

Holy shit, the UK is having an election on Thursday. The fate of that country lies in the hands of the same people who voted for Brexit. AAAAAAUGH!


Therefore I reactivate this proposal to hold a special last-minute session of DEMOCRACY: WHAT HAPPENED?

This will also serve as the going away party for Justin Tyler Tate without whom Temporary will have far fewer experiments.

Let's do it!
