promoters, featuring video interventions by Derrick de Kerckhove, Massimo

On March 21st starting at 18:00 let's meet for a

[ REFF.ternoon ] 

at the Flexi Cafè Library, in the heart of Rione Monti, for the presentation of 
the book "La Baia dei Pirati - Assalto al Copyright" (The Pirate Bay - 
Assaulting Copyright) (Edizioni Cooper), introduced by Arturo di Corinto; after 
that the author, Luca Neri, will meet the guests and host a meeting-debate. The 
evocative ex factory will be animated with the "Flight SynEp" new media art 
installation by OtherehtO.


Following up, starting at 23:00 and into the night, 

[ REFF.jected ]
RomaEuropaFAKEFactory Launch Party 

In the invisible space of the Neo Club, Rejected invites its rejects to the 
continuous pirate remix of identities, playing on the concept of 
inclusion/exclusion and on musical remix, digital, human, experiential, in a 
series of performances, installations, live VJ sets and DJ sets.

in the Red Room: 

"Empty Mirror", live performance by Global Groove, a couple of visionary unfair 
artists that have been working on the idea of the noise of fragments for 20 
years; 

"Remixing People" by xDxD.vs.xDxD, the inventor of [A]rt is [O]pen [S]ource and 
creator of cyber bodies and robotic and software arts, and Kevin Pistone, 
historical figure of Rome's independent photohraphy scene and founder of the 
MyJemmaTemp workshop, joining forces with an installation and a photographic 
set challenging each other disassembling and reassembling people's bodies. 

All in the frame of ATOMIC, the new qeer party that will instantiate its 
imaginaries built on indie disco and obscene pop with Bebop on the controls, 
the exhibits and performances by Martin Dee vs Industria Indipendente.

In the Caveau:

an environmental interzone running from Zanzibar to William Burroughs, with a 4 
DJ squad, 3 VJs and a videoart installation:

Opening set with the tech house by Jason K, Neo Resident and promoter of the 
Bootleg and Fonia parties.

Following up, a part of the history to come of the subversive Rome penetrating 
the world thrugh the paths of D.I.Y. , party culture and the Queer imaginaries 
of the Phag Off project. Warbear connects plots and configures libertarian 
dancefloors with a set of Incredibly Strange Techno, mashing up spoken words 
and vocal samples to 4-quarters narrative structures.

Then Bit_Repeat, Rejected resident Djs, with a techno and minimal set. 

The video setup is curated by LPM, the global meeting of live video 
performances, providing the best performers from the roster of Flyer Visual 
Agency.

Infidel (Phag Off, L-ektrika,Loaded, Anarchy in the Club), Nikky (Phag Off, 
Sick Marylin) and Aira (L-ektrika, Kitchen) will alternate at the video 
controls creating umoral un-pop visions.

The BEAT-ify installation will allow you to loose yourself in the extasy of the 
synesthesia created between berzerk generative cut-ups and the beats of the 
dancefloor, under the cures of the FLxER team and xDxD.vs.xDxD

Kanu, party shooter and Rejected promoter, will be the witness of the party.

And the news are not yet over.

RomaeuropaFAKEFactory adds two new sections and a new deadline (May 15th 2009)

100Flash, dedicated to GIF art

and

100Spaces, dedicated to design, architecture and landscape

Starting from March 20th, the new web site will be available: a brand new Open 
Source platform to manage competitions and a social network. By using it 
artists will be able to register their remix artworks to the literary 
(100Quotes), music (100Samples), video (100Cuts), LawArt (legal remix of 
legislative texts on copyright and patents), and to the two new sections: 
100Flash and 100Spaces.
