First phase: Shadow Casters Workshop, July 14-28, 2001
The exploration and building of Shadow Casters’ path / structure / system begins
in the form of a workshop that will take place within the frame of this year’s
first Zagreb International Urban Festival in July.
The tools and techniques used for this building include:
Urban performing
Reality recycling
Digital Video and Audio recording and editing
Inner/outer mapping
Urban dramaturgy
Web design
Dilating perception
Hyperstory-telling
The navigation of exploration is guided by questions such as:
How does a city settle in my inner world?
What does the border between public and private mean and where is it located?
Is it possible to create a collective identity without damaging individual
identities?
Is there such a thing as a non-manipulative system?
Is there such a thing as the freedom of choice?
If you are to take on the task of a Shadow Caster, you will not find out much
more than this before July 14.
On July 14, you will show up at noon at the place which will be communicated to
you by the organizers of International Urban Festival Zagreb.
There you will meet the other Shadow Casters - guides and novices.
From there on, you will spend two weeks living in apartments with other members
of the Shadow Casters team.
You will do that even if you are a native of Zagreb.
There will be a minimum of 7 and the maximum of 15 of you.
You will receive daily a set of information and instructions which will be your
navigation tools for discovering and building Shadow Casters.
Although you will synchronise with others, it will be up to you to find your
combination of elements given to you in the set.
