SUNDAY? 31.08.08?

Апошні дзень лета : (( Тут няма чаму радавацца, але ёсць чаму здзіўляцца!

Дзень пачаўся з раніцы, ці то ў 8, ці то 7, а можа ў 9 (у пакоях, дзе мы снедаем і гуляемся 3 неадэкватных гадзіннікі), а напэўна а 12 гадзіне. Таму і ўвесь дзень склаўся з адных НЕАДЭКВАТНАСЦЯЎ!

1 НЕАДЭКВАТНАСЦЬ:

Дзень народзінаў Марты ў жніўні, а не ў марте-сакавіку!??

marta

Жнівеньская Марта, амаль што вераснёўская!

Вялізны торцік з белай гліны, вельмі прыемны па смаку і карысны для страўніка, з 18 свечкамі ад IKI!

2 НЕАДЭКВАТНАСЦЬ:

KultFlux Platform // NatureChange


cmok


Абмен несуразнасцямі і рознай фігнёй: усмешкамі, учынкамі, словамі, пацісканнямі рук, абмен сонца на дождж і наадварот, адзежай, абуткам, ежай, талеркамі з-пад ежы, упрыгожваннямі…

І хопіць ужо! Навошта?? Не ведаем! Але ў наступны раз што-небудзь самі прынясем і за
грошы прададзім!

prymierka


3 НЕАДЭКВАТНАСЦЬ:

Музей генацыдаду. Не, не, не. Не трэба нам гэтага! Гэта была самая вялікая неадэкватнасць сённяшняму святочнаму дню. Хто гэта прыдумаў?


4 НЕАДЭКВАТНАСЦЬ:

Пікнік! Pizza? Mamba? Very strange!
Да наступнай запраўкі засталося 2,5 гадзіны. Не ведалі як дачакацца таго часу, трэба было нешта з’есці..

5 НЕАДЭКВАТНАСЦЬ:

Вячэра ў COZY. Учора ўсім спадабаўся крэм-бруле (гучыць брутальна), таму і сёння пайшлі зноў. І вось ён аблом! 20 аднолькавых смярдзючых талерак з зяленымі (соплі?) макаронамі і цеплы свежавыціснуты фруктовы кактэль на дэсерт. Талерку з сырам за 20 літ прынесці катэгарычна адмовіліся! І каву-латэ і капучына таксама зажмоцілі :( (толькі за свае грошы).
stolovka
Але ўсім было прыемна адзін за адным хадзіць ў бок WC па запрашэнню Кацярыны, каб напісаць пажаданні для Марты ў кнізе аб літоўскай графіцы, якую ёй потым урачыста падарылі пад ўсплескі нашых далоняў!

P.S. Цяпер усе адэкватна спяць, толькі Ганна ды Ігар неадэкватна пішуць пра сённяшні 5 дзень культурнай анімацыі у горадзе Вільня..

Yellow day in Trakai. Beautiful and Ugly.


The second day was spent in Trakai. We received quests: to find any yellow object and take a photo of something beautiful and something ugly.














All day we had been looking for Beauty and Ugly. All team were really creative and completed this quest with their own view and ideas.

start of creativity_Nastya

Our tourist day started with “light mobile lunch” after which it was quite hard to even breathe and continued in Kaunas. A trip to Kaunas was a great choice for a start. The venue was probably selected by tutors so that even Vilnius residents could feel theirselves “new” in the environment. Among our “art activities” we had a presentation about LitPro project itself and got acquainted with its team, got to know our tutors and of course, presented ourselves.
Self-presentations was our creative homework and was challenging enough to let us encompass us or part of us on this little sheet of A4 paper. Now I am ( or we are?) far better informed on how the A4 sheet of paper can be used: this can be a platform to which you can attach things that reflect your interests and habits, this can be simply drawing sheet when you feel yourself almost like at school taking part in art classes, or, simply, the stage where you can perform. However, there are also lots of means to use blank paper to express yourself. In this case, the paper was crushed, pressed, carefully folded and unfolded to reveal different sides of the personality of the presenter. It was interesting and exciting to both take part in it and see what others did. [Documentation attached]
We were staying in a wonderful hotel:once a posh place for only rich and now only remembering its better days It was quite hard to find elevator and brown bread for breakfast but the rooms are almost a history object as the dryers standing attached to the walls in the bathroom were probably among the first “foreign” equipment imported in the Soviet times to make this place even more attractive for tourists.
Rather blurred feeling from new faces and unusual surrounding was smootheed a bit with a few pints of beer in one of the famous Kaunas’ bar – BO Baras. Now the “activities” are still continuing and I believe there will be more and more positive feedbackS from the others

Nastya

I am Nastya,
I study at EHU, in the most "un"creative faculty - international and european law, now being 4th year student.

I like to discover previously unknown things and if there is a possibility to do so - either alone or collectively - I always go for it. In due course of the Academy I would like to look differently on the things I am used to, I want to distract from the things I usually do and try something new.

See you All soon

Hello,everyone!!!

Salute!!!

I’m Marta, EHU student, program visual design and media. Gladly greed all members of this project!

I have been studying in Vilnius nearly for a year & with certainty can say that it’s one of the most beautiful & coziest places I have ever been to! I hope that after these 10 days we’ll otherwise see this place.

What about me? I like everything new: new places, new people, new info, new impressions & etc. This project is another “new” because I want to try myself in unknown for me sphere of creative work. I only started my education & I hope that this project will give me useful knowledge, new friends & wealth of experience that will help me in me future live & studies.

Good luck! See you soon!!!

This is me, Dima:-)

I am EHU art distance student from Kyiv, Ukraine. I being late but I feel that I' m not last in fact;-) Often I am angry on myself that I can evaluate some moment only postfactum. There is dependence on memory. Memory produces gradation, one it is selects and other loses. What value has memory for people? I'm interesting in art of memory. Vilnius - magnificent system of memory with great number of places of memory, where I like to return and to reminisce something simple but important...together with you;-)
I would like to share some of my memories about my past visits into Vilnius. For example, such photos of harmony and mimicry;D

Hi, my name is Ales

Hi, my name is Ales

My academic interests lay in the field of mass media, journalism and culture. I am an active member of the Cinema Club and Photo club. For several years I studies graphic software.

Summer art academy, on the one hand, gives me a chance to expand my knowledge in the marginal disciplines and, on the other hand, to chose some specific topic and focus on it in my possible research activities (in the field of visual culture).

Also, I think that it will give me a chance to socialize with many young people. And this is also a good deal of experience and knowledge.

pavel

Hi. I'm Pavel. Me and Ania Kurašova (Aney) were invited to help Alicja and Ania - and all of you.

I'm from Far East of Belarus (Orša, Horki). I make and play sounds. Used to make abstract photos and still do some visuals. I also weave webs - of words, sites and/or people. This summer i've finished MA studies @ EHU. My paper was about 'rhythm, rituals, liminality, corporeality, techno and psy-trance'.

Cultural animation is new to me, but i suspect it has connections with many spheres of my interests. So i'm curious and open to whatever discoveries and experiences may happen.
