[resource-net] What Drives Us? A Forum on Festival Sustainability

[Tatiana Bazzichelli]

Dear all,

I am going to Montreal (Canada) next week to take part in some events
connected with the HTMlles Festival, and participate at this Conference,
which I believe would interest many of you, since it is about the topic
of sustainability in festivals and art projects.
My presentation will focus on the modalities of networking as a
curatorial method, having as main example the experience of the reSource
transmedial culture berlin, reflecting on the pro and contra of applying
a network methodology to connect a festival more directly with local
actors, introducing an element of unpredictability and uncertainty into
a consolidated festival structure.
At the event there will be many festival and event producers and
organizers, so I look forward to this experience, and to discuss with
them a matter that is really crucial for many of us that work
independently or inside curatorial projects/institutions.
