UPDATE: Euro Zone: Mini-Tour for January 2009
Early Dec., the good graces of stencildom gifted me a ticket to the EU. I took the opportunity, while in the middle of the Southeast USA tour, to begin putting feelers out for doing the Stencil Nation Book Presentation in as many places as I could work out. Feelers are still out, but some hooks have been snagged:
EU Stencil Nation Book January Mini-Tour (with DJ/VJ Podinski)
- 8 Thu assoonas gallery, Wohlersallee 48, Hamburg, DE (8 pm presentation; Podinski will not be at this stop)
- 14 Wed Neurotitan, Berlin, DE (9 pm presentation; 10:30 pm after party downstairs @ Eschschloraque)
- 16 Fri Skolska28, Prague, CZ (7:30 pm presentation; after party follows)
- 18 Sun Stanica, Zilina, SK (8 pm presentation)
- 22 Thu Zeitvertrieb, Wien, AT (7 pm presentation; after party follows with special guest Dieter Puntigam)
The amazing DJ/VJ Podinski will also appear at these presentations, dishing out his multi-kulti treats. DJ/VJ Podinski is a psychomedia analyst with XLTerrestrials.org, an arts + praxis think tank developing radical hybrid organisms for immediate and unmediated fecundity. XLt work has been featured at festivals, conferences and venues such as Next 5 Minutes, Ars Electronica, Transmediale, 24C3, Roxy/NoD, Pergamon Museum, Kulturbrauerei and Club der Polnische Versager.
More info TBA as it comes along (other gigs in the works: Bratislava, Graz, Hamburg, and maybe Romania) Any leads or advice would be greatly appreciated!
PS: photo upload coming very soon! Just in time for Xmas...... PROMISE!
