As part of reSource 002: 'Out of Place, Out of Time', the second
event of the reSource transmedial culture berlin, COMPOSTING THE CITY
| COMPOSTING THE NET launches a six month composting cycle in which
(un)nature degenerative processing foregrounds a
consequential/sequential networked performance during transmediale
festival in February 2013.
COMPOSTING THE CITY | COMPOSTING THE NET examines the parallel
process of fermentation and deterioration of our daily food
consumption extra and our shared digital commons - the discarded
food scrapes reinvested; the immaterial wealth/junk of net data
recovered. The food scraps thrown onto a compost heap are layered and
mingled until all traces of identities erased. On the net, the
abundance of info-data sinks into oblivion with tags attached. While
Berlin city boasts itself ECO-BIO-CHIC, it maintains a
not-so-successful food waste bin system which the urbanites seldom
utilize. During August 22 - 24 project launch at Kunstraum Kreuzberg
/Bethanien, Berlin, COMPOSTING THE CITY calls for Berliners to
'ADOPT-A-COMPOSTER" (a la ADOPT-A-HIGHWAY). 12 composting units where
worms and sensors live off and check in on the maturing of rotten
makeover are to be adopted, claimed, maintained and blogged for the 6
month cycle.
