Manifesto Slam on a Biodiesel Bus! Platform2 presents MANIFESTO!SLAM An evening of 5-minute manifestos performed by YOU. Tuesday, January 20th, 2009 - Inauguration Day - 7-9PM.
http://www.janemarsching.com/platform2/ We invite you to stand on a soap box to read, sing, dance, scream, build, perform -- to SLAM! -- your own (or your favorite) manifesto. In this celebration, we will climb aboard a bio-diesel bus and drive through Boston broadcasting our individual and collective voices throughout the city. Join us to manifest the visions we have, the politics we feel, and the movements we revere. We will gather together words, thoughts, and gestures of action. We will distribute them on loudspeakers from the windows of a bio-diesel bus. We will mail hard copies and documentation to the White House. We will provide a soap box and musical interludes. You will provide the manifesto. MANIFEST! We invite submissions for 5-minute manifestos. RSVP by replying so we can send you the pickup location. This is the mailing list for the below groups & projects: The Institute for Infinitely Small Things (http://www.ikatun.org/institute/infinitelysmallthings/) conducts creative, participatory research that aims to temporarily transform public spaces dominated by corporate and political agendas. Using performance and conversation, we investigate social and political "tiny things". These have included corporate ads, street names, and post-9/11 security terminology. The Institute markets dissent through its research reports in the form of maps, books and videos. This interdisciplinary group has a varied and open membership. iKatun (http://www.ikatun.com/) is an artist-run organization whose mission is to foster public engagement in the politics of information. iKatun runs experimental curatorial platforms, supports art projects and publishes critical writing. iKatun was founded in 2000 as a 501(c)3 organization based in Boston, MA.
