Vision Forum Spring Meeting - March 11-12, 2014.



Vision Forum cordially invites you to participate in this year's spring meeting in Norrköping and Linköping in collaboration with KSM at Linköpings universitet, Östsam and Flygvapenmuseet in Linköping. The session will focus on how creators can nurture human and inter-human qualities in the face of the (disintegrating?) welfare state. The participants will reflect on questions about how technology and human mobility has changed ideas of wealth distribution, solidarity and discuss if there are new ways deal with/counteract or resolve these questions.

Participants will travel from Germany, Denmark, Iceland, Italy, Belgium, Holland, the US and the UK to shed light on these urgent problematics and will talk about projects as far afield as Cameroon, Haiti and Ghana.




ANIMANS: The individual and the Collective




Maggie Ledes, Half Digested Taco, Kamikuma and BTT together make up Animans a sound collective that never (?) meet. Together they produce music, poetry and wonderful things that has no signature by the individuals that make up the group. You can hear the music the produce, read the poetry and also get familiar with an octopus named Marina who is connected to Lars von Trier in some odd way by clicking here.

Kamikuma is already a Vision Forum member and the others apparently live in the States, France and in the Alps. We hope that we can interact with the rest of the crew even if we never meet.
