Guided Tour for Guides / 2007 / Event -Activity
The peer2peer workshop/exhibition at K2 Contemporary Art Centre in Izmir invited participating artists/curators from Finland, Sweden and Turkey, to explore material and human parables extending from the terminology of file-sharing, and collaborative open/proprietary networks. During the 3-day workshop each contributed to constructing our social, eating, production and documentation site(s): Workshop peers proposed an ‘event/activity’ to be organised and developed individually or collaboratively, in dialogue with the others at these sites. These proposals acted as more-or-less experimental participatory structures to flatten distinctions between the participant (artist) and organiser (curator), hopefully inviting continued exchange and practice.
Guided tours for guides:
For the workshop I proposed to make a guided tour in Kemeralti area. Each participants supposed to the become guide at once. Since all the participants are not local they were free to make their own stories during their tour. I intented to create symbolic possible -non hierarchical information exchange- even though information is not valid.
