ladyfest wien is now over, it was intense, great fun and well educational, that is I learnt allot about how to organize an event like it, which will come in handy for the one we are having in dublin. I went to tons of workshops, one called posse! performative politics and art, talking whitness, revolution girl style now!, philopenno political art . . . the two performative art workshops were great and I dedicated lots of energy to them. For example the posse! one I went to three days in a row, talked theory, came up with ideas for actions, created stencils, went spraypainting, created t-shirts and did an action at a political talk for the freedom party (basically a nazi party) and the other poliical art workshop we learnt about a popular form of street theater that for political propaganda and we create a short skit.

The final discussion yesterday brought up issues for the space, the orgnaizing, the bands, workshops, films etc, basically everything that happen at ladyfest. The main issue that came up was this idea of space. How to creat a safe space, how to transform the spaces you are in, how to deal with those who are not respecting the space, or are dominating space.

my internet time is running out, marikes computer broke yesterday so my internet addiction has taken a new level of cash, so I hav eto go and finish later.
