The Experimental Event is a cross-disciplinary Autumn festival organized by the Pori unit of the Department of Art of Aalto-university School of Art, Design and Architecture. The epicenter of the third Experimental Event is the Pori Puuvilla area, more specifically its Generator gallery and a space called Kuppila, that is located in the building of Café Solo.
What does it mean to experiment in arts and theory? One object of the event is to question the boundaries of the two, and to encourage people to explore and surpass their limits. A lecture is a performance and an installation, a screening is a talk. Non-finished work as virtue, writing as an act
Mitä kokeellisuus tarkoittaa? Tapahtuma pyrkii kyseenalaistamaan taiteen ja teorian erottelua ja kannustaa etsimään ja ylittämään tekemisen rajoja. Luento on performatiivinen installaatio, videoesitys tapahtuma puheineen. Keskeneräisyys hyveenä, kirjoitus eleenä;
