Welcome to TEH CAMP MEETING 80 @Bakelit M.A.C.

Bakelit Multi Art Center is delighted to host the first TEH Camp Meeting, that is taking place in Budapest, Hungary, from 5 to 8 November 2015. The purpose of the Camp Meeting format –which we are trying for the first time– is to provide time and space for TEH Members to present and develop common projects. We expect this meeting to be the spark that fires many brand new projects within the network and a milestone for many others that are now taking-off, such as Europe Grand Central, the Cultural Leadership Programme, TEH Academy, the TEH Consulting and the next editions of the TEH Mentorship Programme, the Staff Exchange Programme and the European Voluntary Service.

Bakelit Multi Art Center is a cultural centre established in 1999 to serve as an innovative platform for visual and perfor-ming arts. The centre is located in the industrial area of Budapest, which was originally used in the early 1900’s for manufacturing war related products. After the Second World War, the area developed into a textile spinning factory. Bakelit M.A.C provides spaces for artistic production and exhibition, such as recording studios, rehearsals halls, performance halls and stage, exhibitions and event rooms. This multi-discipli-nary centre gives the opportunity for artists to learn, create, and perform, allowing them to develop in both personal and artistic terms so they can improve their practices. Bakelit M.A.C welcomes the following types of fine arts and performing arts: Contemporary theatre / Dance / Concerts / Festivals / Exhibitions / Private and Business events / Conferences Our Receptive Theatre Tender was founded in August 2007 in order to accommodate artists in the performing arts. As a result, many performances have been produced in this space, adding a lively touch to its appearance. We welcome diverse and multicultural talents willing to be inspired by the creative atmos-phere of Budapest. Bakelit M.A.C. also owns a hostel, The Factory Hostel of Budapest, to accommodate guests and artists during their arts and culture journey in the city. Our hostel provides friendly experiences to our hosts and welcomes all kind of people during their learning periods, study camps, rehearsals and many more. Thanks to the various functional rooms available at the center, Bakelit MAC additionally offers multiple services regarding artistic collaborations. The Factory Hostel of Budapest is also available for international tourists as it is a convenient access to the beautiful and colorful city.

Bakelit MAC would like to invite TEH80 attendees to the opening of “VIP 100 Visegrad In Posters 100 years on 100 posters”, an exhibition of his-torical culture-related posters produced throughout the last 100 years in the four Visegrad Group countries, Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia. The collection of posters comprises 80 posters recovered from different archives and 20 additional brand new artworks created by contemporary graphic artists. As art historian Zsuzsa Ordasi once stated: “The poster expresses the freedom of using a language what all can understand without special efforts, it represents the multiplicability and one can glue posters anywhere”.

This project is led by Bakelit Multi Art Center (Budapest, Hungary) in partnership with Tabacka Kulturfabrik, (Kosice, Slovakia), Johan Centrum (Plzen, Czech republic) Fundancja Kultury Wici (Kielcze, Poland). Openings of the international touring exhibition:

WORKSESSIONS

What Is It About? TEH in partnership with Nätverkstan, ENCATC, Olivearte and Sue Kay are working on developing a leadership programme for the cultural sector. The target group are leaders of small to me-dium sized organisations who wish to make a difference in how arts and culture can influence and drive change within society. With this one-day workshop you will have the opportunity to get a taste of what this leadership programme can be like. Since the members of Trans Europe Halles are one of the intended target groups, your feedback and opinion on both the content, form and pedagogic approach is highly valuable and will shape the future programme. This working session will offer you room for reflection and “learning by doing” on the topic of Leadership. The morning session will be a learning dialogue about Leadership in the cultural sector and the afternoon will be an interactive leadership workshop focusing on conflict management, building on the morning process.

Who Might Be Interested? Anyone interested in Leadership development within the cultural sector. Anyone curious about exploring what Leader-ship is and could be. Anyone interested in developing his or hers knowledge about conflicts; how to understand oneself in them and how to handle them.

What Should Participants Expect? Collective reflection and learning around the topic of Leadership. Sharing knowledge and getting new input on what leadership is and what it could be to participate in Leadership. Methodology and tools to better understand and handle conflicts.

Who Is Leading? Sue Kay (UK) Anna Johansen (Nätverkstan, Sweden).

How Long Will It Be? 6 hours divided into two 3-hour sessions.

What Is It About? In this working session, we would like to gather together those TEH member centres that run educational programmes for kids and/or young people. Their experiences will be presented to a discussion about the following topics: how each of us understand educational projects, what the relevance of our programmes within the informal learning framework is, what their benefits are, how to raise awareness about their importance, how to persuade decision makers about it, what the main obstacles we are facing when setting up and running educational projects, etc. Apart from exchanging knowledge and experiences, the purpose of this working session is to create a steering group within TEH to continue reflecting and working on this topic in a structured and continuous way.

Who Might Be Interested? This working session should attract cultural workers who develop projects for and/or with kids and youngsters, for cultural institutions which host youth productions or set up special participatory projects, who offer artistic and cultural activities targeted at those who are socially deprived with a view to integrating them more closely. Please note that we are excluding training and community projects for adults, master-classes for actors, etc.

What Should Participants Expect? Presentations of good practices and interesting cases, exchange of experiences, meet educational project leaders from other cultural centres, boosted collaboration between our centres and creation of a steering group of 4/5 member centers to work on this topic.

Who Is Leading? René Penning, Kulturfabrik, Luxembourg. Marc Scheer, Prabbeli Wiltz, Luxembourg. Céline Suel, Kulturfabrik, Luxembourg. Fred Entringer, Kulturfabrik, Luxembourg.

How Long Will It Be? 6 hours divided into two 3-hour sessions.

2. Educational Programmes in TEH Centers

What Is It About? The MP3 platform is a project that advocates the development of a centre for new media in Istria (Croatia). Apart from this, other activities include procuring better conditions for the development of non-institutional culture and critical reflection upon the current conditions for production/residential programmes in the domain of new media (arts/technologies). We would like to find partners in the EU for a future creation and development of different activities of our platform. The overall concept of the activities will focus on new cultural praxis (e.g. new media art). The activities we would like to suggest in such projects are: social and cultural research, residence programmes, creative hubs, artistic co-production, artists’ mobility and cooperation on festivals. We would like to develop a yearly programme that would include all those activities and possibly more. This project is connected to our goal of building a future centre for new media, as we would like to, firstly show that there is a need for such a centre, and secondly use the cen-tre and the platform as a base for conducting different types of activities for future applications to EU funds (Erasmus+, Creative Europe etc.). However our efforts this year are mainly aimed at research: learning and exchanging ideas and experience about culture centers in Europe and their activities.

What Should Participants Expect? Participants should expect to develop ideas and plans to build some future networks and cooperation programmes, exchanging ideas concerning new media art and centers, reflecting on common issues and problematic situations in the development of these kinds of activities.

Who Might Be Interested? Cultural centres’ coordinators and members of advocacy networks, project managers, new media art managers and artists.

Who Is Leading? Marino Jurcan, Association Metamedia / Rojc, Croatia.Marko Kalčić, Association Metamedia / Rojc, Croatia.

How Long Will It Be? 3 hours.

What Is It About? With this session we would like to continue developing on the ideas of “third space” and “indecision“ that were pre-sented to the TEH community during the TEH Meeting that took place in Lecce last Spring. Together with interested practitioners we want to explore questions like “How far can we go with the idea of indecision? How can we learn from the metaphor and re-lated practices of garden and gardening?“ or in a broader sense: “What are the roles of planning, spontaneity, and improvisation in cultural centres?”

Who Might Be Interested? We think that every centre might be a potential par-ticipant in this session. Everybody can approach the themes of indecisiveness from different angles. The more diversity we have during the session, the richer the outcomes will be.

What Should Participants Expect? Participants should be willing and ready to accept indecisiveness. This means that we will probably not be able to work with a clearly pre-defined agenda and goals and that throughout the working process those are likely to keep changing.

Who Is Leading? Michele Bee, Manifatture Knos, Italy Florian Ladstätter, Die Bäckerei, Austria

How Long Will It Be? 6 hours divided into two 3-hour sessions.

4. Indecision in Organising Cultural Centres

What Is It About? This working session is all about bringing closer and getting to know better those who either combine artistic actions with incubation (of creative/culture entrepreneurs/artists) or thinking about it. Therefore we would like to invite those who share similar interests to start a practical collaboration aiming at: Developing a platform to share our best and worst practices in incubation/supporting development of creative entrepre-neurs. Finding and sharing new tools to support culture and creative entrepreneurs at different stages of growth. Creating an internal support system for those who are always expected to deliver – be stronger and smarter than the start-ups they’re tak-ing care of on daily basis. In short: making creative incubation as good as it can be, also by investing in our own professional development. And doing it together. The final shape of the session depends on what interested centres will bring to the table.

Who Might Be Interested? People interested in collaboration in the following areas: #notjustanotherproject #incubation #creativeentre-preneurship #professionalisationofcreative&culturesectors #keepingitreal #process #nochasingdeadlines #onlyapplication-srespondingtoactualneeds #notaffraidofsharingbadpractices. People who are interested in developing stronger relationships around common interests and processes related to the above mentioned topics, and not just one-off projects.

What Should Participants Expect? This is OUR working session! And that’s going to be a WORKING session. That means that there will be no powerpoint presentations, just action. Through sharing, brainstorming, working together and using all our knowledge and potential, we will try to find new solutions to old problems. The outcomes of the session should be: a) To generate ideas for specific and practical actions, in response to the actual needs and dreams of involved centres. b) To come up with some first ideas on how to finance the ideas generated previously.

Who Is Leading? Agata Etmanowicz, Art Factory Lodz, Poland. How Long Will It Be? 6 hours divided into two 3-hour sessions.

What Is It About? Current events in Europe and its adjacent regions are challenging hegemonic narratives about European values, which in our opinion need updated critical analysis and reflec-tion. Taking this as a starting point, this working session aims at identifying the need and capacity of the participants to engage further in conceptualizing a common project to raise awareness about the role of arts and culture in reproducing/confronting/ignoring dominant or alternative narratives about European values, as well as generating new knowledge, encouraging and engaging critical art and theory.

The session will be structured as follows:1. Listing European values as they are understood by the session participants.2. Short discussion about the origins of listed values, about their present status in local/regional/national contexts and about their general reflections or articulations in respective cultural and political scenes. A special focus would be on some critical or symptomatic actual issues and their historical, cultural, economic perspective, as seen by participants.3. The session is to be continued by describing certain artistic and cultural projects that deal with such issues.4. A final debate will focus on the next steps to conceptualize a common project.

Who Might Be Interested? Project initiators and project managers from cultural centres that might be interested in dealing with the issue of European values through development and realization of a common project.

What Should Participants Expect? Meeting potential project partners, discussing the issues related to past, present and future of European values, comparing of actual experiences, understandings and possible ambitions in the given thematic field.

Who Is Leading? Nebojsa Milikic, Rex, Serbia.

How Long Will It Be? 6 hours divided into two 3-hour sessions.

6. European Values Revisited

What Is It About? As part of the development of the TEH Academy, one of the most interesting areas to be explored is online learning, as a way to provide training for cultural professionals all over Europe and the world. This is reason why a strategic partnership is being deve-loped together with the Latin American Foundation for the Creative and Cultural Industries (FIBICC), the organization managing TEH potential member La Harinera (Spain). As a result of this partnership, a funding application is expected to be submitted to the Erasmus+ programme in 2016. During this working session, TEH and FIBICC will present a project aiming at creating a world-wide online training plat-form. Participants will be invited to contribute to the development of the project with ideas and experiences.

Who Might Be Interested? TEH Members, associates and other organizations working in the education and cultural sectors willing to be contribute to this project and even get involved in its implemen-tation.

What Should Participants Expect? An update on the development of TEH Academy and participative workshop to generate ideas that will contribute to the development of TEH Academy and the above-mentioned e-learning platform for the cultural sector.

Who Is Leading? José Luis Rodríguez, Trans Europe Halles, Sweden Santiago Arroyo, FIBICC and La Harinera, Spain

How Long Will It Be? 3 hours.

What Is It About? When the types of services that TEH Academy could provide were initially identified and analyzed, some of them showed to be slightly different from those purely educational or related to professional development of culture professionals. Those services, which include strategic consultancy, feasibility and business plans, project management, study visits, tailored training, etc. don’t target individuals as the TEH Academy ser-vices but institutions, organizations and businesses. Therefore they have been clustered under the name of TEH Consulting. During this working session, participants will be updated on the development of TEH Consulting. The results of the call for TEH Consultants, the new TEH Consulting section in TEH website and several current opportunities will be briefly presented. Partici-pants will be involved in sharing and systematizing the knowl-edge they have from the start-up stages of cultural centres, their management and development as well as identifying potential clients for TEH Consulting services and designing specific value propositions for each service.

8. European Values Revisited

Who Might Be Interested? Leaders of cultural centres and projects who would like to share their insights about starting up a cultural centre, those people who applied to become TEH Consultants, and other cultural professionals with an experience in consultancy.

What Should Participants Expect? To be updated on the development of TEH Consulting so far. To actively participate by sharing experiences and lessons learnt from the start up phase and development of a cultural centre. To develop the services portfolio of TEH Consulting. To contribute to identifying the needs of TEH Consulting potential clients and partners. To design value propositions for TEH Consulting services.

Who Is Leading? José Luis Rodríguez, Trans Europe Halles, Sweden. Birgitta Person, Trans Europe Halles, Sweden. Kristian Krog, Den Ny Maltfabrik, Denmark. Auro Foxcroft, Village Underground, UK.

L1 Independent Artists Association of Public Utility maintains great interest in creating the right circumstances for high quality perfor-mances (visual arts, performing arts and dance), helping members of the organization, giving advice and adopting “homeless” fellow artists. The organization collaborates with fellow Hungarian, as well as foreign, dance companies and organizations. These connections make it possible to take part in international festivals, which raises the level of quality of events within Hungary itself.

www.L1.hu

The founder of Bakelit and L1 Association had been in a close cooperation for years, L1 members were one of the first regular performers of Bakelit, using the spaces as their owns. Since 2011 they are not residents of L1DanceLab anymore, but the good relation remained. L1 Association is the best choice for an interactive presentation of the Bakelit’s spaces, they know it well, with all its secrets...

L1 Association was established unofficially in 1998, and officially in 2002. Our group was very unique thanks to our democratic working methods. After 9 years, we decided to implement changes. We invited artists from other art fields (especially contemporary art), since we be-lieved this would enhance greater mutual respect and sharpen our focus, enabling us to remain up-to-date and become more open to new ideas.The primary activity of the association has been from the very beginning to organize an annual contemporary dance festival called L1danceFest, based in Budapest, Hungary.

We have recognized an increasing interest for activities offering the possibility of participation and creative involvement. From all our previous expe-riences we have learned that there is a growing need for more engaging, invigo-rating and more co-operative new projects. These are the motivating forces of our future activities.

From 2011 on, L1 Association has become more and more interested in interdisciplinary fields of art and cross-genre experiments. Similarly to the previous editions, L1danceFest is dedicated to cultural diversity, transgressive power and boundary-breaking experiments. Everything is possible. Our key-words are: artists’ mobility, exchange of experiences reflecting on the contem-porary art scene; participating in exhilarating collaborations, growing closer to each other, and giving ourselves the possibility to SEE, ACCEPT and RESPECT EACH OTHER!

Zsolt Varga (as chairman of L1 Association) and Márta Ladjánszki (as artistic vice president), beside their own artistic works, are curators of L1danceFest and the artistic programs the association and members take part in.L1 Association has 22 members and year to year invites resident artists to help their own creative works as well.

ESZTER HEROLD (H) Eszter Herold (1981, H) earned her diplomas in Hungarian and German Language and Literature and in Drama pedagogy. She started to dance 17 years ago. She works as a teacher of stage movement and literature - with her students she creates physical theatre pieces. As an independent dancer she was a resident artist of L1 Association 2013, from 2014 she is a member of the association.

Mátka Choreography, dance: Eszter Herold Music: Ádám Márton Horváth

“The title has a double meaning. The word MÁTKA with an accent on the second letter means the beloved and betrothed woman on the side of a man in Hungarian. Without an accent (MATKA) it is a Czech word and can be translated as ’mother’. The topic which interests me is the physiological and psychical state of a woman, whose body is ready for conception – time is passing by and she lacks the baby her body desires for. A kind of biological and pschyical erosion is starting which she tries to arrest. The solo MÁTKA is a trial of understanding, observing and finding peace and rest in this waiting-wasting period.” This 15 minutes long dance study is the very first dance ICON of a year-long multiple art cooperation called CONVEX PROJECT started in April 2013. The Process has started with two photo series in the topic of female waiting and waisting, about empty uterus spaces. After this first step I kept on working in strong collaboration with Ádám Márton Horváth (light and music creator) and Zsuzsi Palman (graphic artist), and we have made NINE ICONS parallel to the nine months of pregnancy. Each ICON deals with female states and changes from different points of view. Matka has won an international prize for young choreographers called Jarmila Jeřábková award 2013 in Prague and won a special price at RS9 OFF Festival 2015 in Budapest. CONVEX PROJECT was also supported by a successful individual artist residency in the frame of VARP.

INTERACTIVE PRESENTATION

GYULA BERGER (H)Gyula Berger is a well-known choreographer from Budapest and one of the founding members of the contemporary dance scene in Hungary – making work for the past 25 years. After 10 years of dance training with renowned teachers like Risa Steinberg, David Zambrano and Doug Elkins, he entered the Hungar-ian dance scene as a choreographer in 1984 with the Berger Dance Company. At that time it was the only professional group, working without official support but on a regular base, aiming to establish modern dance in Hungary. In the beginning of the 90’s, Gyula’s thirst for finding new ways of moving and composing took him to The Netherlands. He studied post-modern dance at the European Dance Development Center for 4 years and returned to Hungary in 1997. He founded his second company, Zero Ballet and was co-founder of the L1 Independent Dancers’ Partnership - a unique collective of choreographers. Since 2010, Gyula has been focusing his artistic work on Zero Ballet in Budapest and travels across Europe for international collaborations.

Valencia won the 2014 Viktor Fülöp and danceWEB Scholarships. Since 2013 Valencia has been researching how artificial intelligence can be applied to dance and performing arts, and co-founded the AI_am project. She has presented the project at TEDxDanubia in May 2015, as well as the International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Buenos Aires and the International Symposium of Electronic Art in Vancouver the same year. Valencia is a resident artist of the L1 Association in 2015.

KINETIC DIALOGUES This installation presents a real-time dialogue between human and algo-rithmic movement. The interactive installation features a dancing avatar powered by an improvising algorithm. Participants are invited to join the avatar in its dance. Their movements, tracked with a motion capture camera, invariably act as real-time feedback to the avatar. As the avatar awaits a dance partner, it appears shy, its movements cautious. When a participant begins to move with the avatar, the interaction makes it braver. The more energetic the human movement, the more expressive the avatar becomes as an unprecedented duet ensues between natural and artificial intelligences.

Kinetic Dialogues is an installation derived from the ongoing process of research in the project, AI_am. The research investigates the ways in which the seemingly disparate fields of artificial intelligence (AI) and dance can inform and advance each other. For the past two years a multidisciplinary team including Valencia James (dance/choreography), Alexander Berman (cognitive science, AI research), Gabor Papp (creative coding, rendering) and Gaspar Hajdu (architect, creative coding) have been exploring the possibilities of how dance translates into machine learning and how the dancer’s creativity can be enhanced by AI.

Theatre /// Auction by Cie Krisztián GergyeAuction is a contemporary dance and theatrical thinking con-necting a discourse with contemporary fine arts and painting. The performance focuses on psychical action, which can be interpreted as a dance and a theatrical act. The further and final aim is to realize a fine art product that defines the stage act as a fine art gesture series. Krisztián Gergye’s work is marked by fine art approach and his art of dance can be discovered in his picture created in the end of the process. The resulting picture is offered “for sale”. In case the picture is not sold it is destroyed on the spot.

Concert /// Song-ora Group + Dj Set + Party at A38

The speciality of this formation is that it is not an exact band. Song-óra Group is an alliance of young musicians for a progressive, convergent art society. The members connect to the audience by „tuning in to attunement” and make art in front of them. They never play the same song in the same way twice. The musicians also can be seen in bands like Dokkerman and The Turkeying Fellaz, Ninagram, Ez a Divat, Magyar Vista Social Club, Pace Palmers, Gourmand, Marcello’s Mystical Mind, Soulclap Budapest or Mrs Columbo. Besiedes, went to schools like Kõbányai Zenei Studió, Bartók Béla Conservatoire and Liszt Ferenc Academic of Music – Jazz department.

Krisztián Gergye’s work is characterised by fine art attitude. His hommage to Schiele, Bacon and Freud were a kind of revelation on the Hungarian dance scene. Gergye does not want to flaunt in the title of an artist, he puts only the fine art ges-ture of creation on stage. Hereby, the abstraction of the art of dance can be found in the picture itself, and the art of dance does not became a line of gestures which can be interpreted in different ways, or which is hiding behind the abstraction itself.2014 Main Prize of VI, International Monodance Festival.

Theatre /// Schweinland by MU Terminal Our story takes place in a fictional country. In this country there is something not quite kosher: everyone knows it and feels it. But since this is not something tangible with their hands, not something they could hit someones head with, this “something” may not even exist. Maybe it is only someone else’s fiction, like this whole country. In this country, Schwein-culture only tolerates true Schwein-friendship, true Schwein-love and true Schwein-honor.

Schweinland is a fairytale land where two, in the case of inflation, becomes one: but two, in case of economic growth, is four. A country where last year is this year and this year equals perhaps another year. If Schwein-governor says “It’s a fact ” it surely isn’t after all. In this wonderland values are non-values, non-values are Schwein-values, truth isn’t truth, lies are only half-truths and half-truths are Schwein-truths.

Concert /// Keep Floyding and party The story begins sometime in 1999, when three high school students decided to venture upon a task that seems to be impossible: to form a band which will only play Pink Floyd songs. This was the Echoes of Pink Floyd. They quickly achieved notoriety after the formation: one year later they played at a large venue, before the concert of After Crying in the Petőfi Hall (PeCsa). In the next ten years they mainly delivered inti-mate club concerts, and in 2006 they also had a chance for an independent performance in the Palace of Arts in Budapest. After ten years it was time to start thinking in a larger scale, keeping in our minds the legendary, spectacular shows of Pink Floyd. This is how Keep Floyding was established.

Having their own sound and lighting engineers, finally they are able to create the atmosphere that they had envisioned. The regular full house concerts are more and more successful, and dates like their double full house concert in the Palace of Arts performed in 2012 are proof positive. They try to create the most authentic experience both in sound and staging for each concert site. Projectorsand lasers are both employed to invoke the legendary concerts. For them Pink Floyd is much more than reproducing one or two illustrious concerts: it is a uni-quely colourful musical experience, all eras of which – including the solo works of each of the members – deserve to be kept alive as part of our repertoire. Their work is a mission. And those who attend will never forget...
