Tracing Mobility – Open Platform :: November 26-27, 2011 :: Berlin :: Call for Participation – Deadline: October 17, 2011.

It is in our movement that we give ourselves away. Our trails reveal a course that, when mapped, indicates our design. So we are tracked and our presence logged.

Tracing Mobility sets out to examine the shifting terrain of global versus individual mobility and how its hand in hand development with networked infrastructure is transforming our conceptions of time, space and distance.

WE ARE OPEN: Trampoline opens a platform to anyone who has something to say about mobility and migration in the networked space. Tracing Mobility is particularly open to projects which explore participation in network activity where they intersect with the freedom of movement of individuals, their freedom of self expression and their freedom of conducting economic activity.

In the expectation that many interesting projects and developments on the theme exist already, the curators are inviting artists, cultural practitioners, researchers, NGO’s and the interested public to contribute to the Tracing Mobility – Open Platform.

YOU ARE OPEN: You connect to one of the following statements:

• you have an idea on the how, why and where of ‘tracing mobility’
• an interest in, a technique or a project developed for exploring mobility in music, visual arts, performance or business
• a mind to show, perform or present your work in “mobile formats” whether film, music, talk or speech or publication
• a need to comment on artists’ former and contemporary works that reflect the theme
• and you plan to be, stay or pass by in Berlin on the 26th and 27th of November 2011

JOIN TRACING MOBILITY…. Tracing Mobility Open Platform offers you:

• space at the HKW (Haus der Kulturen der Welt), in its renowned open-space architecture

To join us, please email a half-page description of what you want to contribute (idea, title, format, length) or any questions you may have, either in English or German as soon as possible to tank [at] trampoline-berlin.de
