Traces Open Zone - Sampler

Jodi Rose traces the Open Zone


Notes from the field:

This Traces Open Zone Sampler is created using booki.cc open and free collaborative publishing software and platform. Contributions courtesy of the artists, transmediale.11 festival guests and friends whose paths crossed mine during the activities between 1-6th February in Berlin. 

Originally intended as a journal made by guests in the tea lounge, during the course of the festival this became a more responsive and personal sampling of my own idiosyncratic trajectory through the transmediale.11 program, wandering the corridors, drifting through the open zone and reflecting in the artist green room.

It became clear very early on that attempting to produce a live radio conversation show, while keeping the tea hot and serving cakes was already more than we could achieve in the 2 or 3 hour sessions, and so this edition took place in-between these and is focused on my connections and invitations, with some live transcripts from the tea lounge by Mindaugas Gapsevicius. The introductions in italics to some texts are intended to provide context and coherence for the material - in these cases 'I' refers to Jodi Rose. 

Although the TRACES project itself is funded by the EU Program for Culture, this reader and the tea lounge are independent activities related to TRACES and received no funding other covering the cost of tea, cake and bus fares. Thanks to Ela, Cara & all the tea lounge hosts, guests and visitors to the festival who made this such a rewarding and inspiring experience.

Conceived and edited by Jodi Rose at the invitation of Ela Kagel and Cara Bell-Jone in the framework of TRACES Tea Lounge and Editions in the Open Zone, transmediale.11

Editions series initiated by Jodi Rose and Mindaugas Gapsevicius for TRACES.
