>From *July 31* to *August 4,* *2013*, the *14th* edition of *Sajeta Creative Camp* will show its teeth at Sotočje, the confluence of the Tolminka and Soča rivers, in the Tolmin region - Slovenia. Better known as Soča Festivalley.**
The opening ceremony, traditionally held at Town Square in Tolmin, will be marked by film and video. *Novi Sad Cinema Club, *an independent film production from Serbia and a regular participant at Sajeta for the last ten years, will present its role and activities. As a part of the inauguration, we will also screen the film *We are Laibach *by Slovenian guerilla filmmaker *Diego Menendes*, who will conclude the ceremony by presenting his experimental musical project *Menedes brothers.* The following day, Sajeta will change the town center for pure and untouched nature at Sotočje. The first evening (1st August) at Sotočje will be markedly *feminine*, but that does not imply it will be a gentle one. Among the more tender performances of the evening will be a Slovenian duo *Najoua*. With its African kalimbas, this opening act will be the first to start creating the Sajeta soundscape. *Svetlana Mataš* and *Anja Djordjevic* from Serbia will perform an electro-acoustic sound theatre project *Canzone distorte* while *Mia Zabelka*, extraordinary Austrian violinist, will unveil herself through her project *“M”*. Eccentric avant-garde diva *Lydia Lunch* will take the stage with her project *“Dust and Shadows”*. Poetry, music and pictures (video) are the main elements in the project and the means through which she will take us into the depths of her soul. Vibe Department DJ crew will take us into the night. Friday's jazz evening will start with an old friend of Sajeta *Zlatko Kaučič *., this time with the Italian-Slovenian orchestra *Orkester Brez Meja/Senza Confini* at the Tolmin Cinema and Theatre. Sajeta dedicates this concert to the peasant uprising in Tolmin. After the show, we will head back to Sotočje where the stage will be set for one of the most distinctive free jazz bands in Slovenia the *Drašler/Karlovčec/Drašler *trio. The evening will continue with a saxophone wizard from Scandinavia *Mats Gustafsson* performing for the first time as solo artist in Slovenia. The grand finale of the evening will be the French avant-rock legends *Ulan Bator*. After the concerts, DJ Checkman will take care for music. Saturday will be the day for electronic music artists starting with Slovenians *Litošt*, who will present their self-titled debut released this year. Producer and composer *Cristian Vogel* from Berlin will then take over with his electro-ambient performance. *Alex Paterson*, British musician and the founder of the legendary *The Orb*, who celebrates his 25th anniversary this year, will wrap up the evening with his *Orb Sound System* productions*. *We will dance until the morning sun with the Dub Lab crew. After lunchtime on Sunday, Sajeta will offer the final concert day at Sotočje. First, the children's music workshop and the experimental music lab will present their projects. In the late afternoon, we will honor the collaboration between Sajeta and the legendary Balkan indie record label *Listen Laudest* with a musical event entitled *Po Balkanskim sokakima 3*.* *Several artists will take the stage: *Babilonci*, *Lou Profa *(both Croatia), *Dječak iz vode *(Bosnia and Herzegovina), *Kodagain *(Serbia)* *and *Nachtzug *(Sweden/Bosnia and Herzegovina). To celebrate the 10 years of fruitful collaboration, the film workshop will be back in the hands of the *Novi Sad Cinema Club* team which has been present at Sajeta one way or another. *Dušan Gerlica*, without whom Sajeta would simply not be the same, will run the traditional sculpture workshop. For the first time, our program will also include a motion workshop lead by *Vita Osojnik*, where participants will discover yoga and dance. The music workshop will be headed by a young Italian team *Laboratorio Sonoro*whereas the children's music workshop will be run by its long-time leader *Samo Kutin*. Team members of *Cirkulacija 2, Bio Tehna* and *Theremidi Orchestra* will join forces and prepare the technology and sound workshop. For those interested, there will also be lectures. Members of the *Mirage*research institute from *Udine* will talk about the contemporary music. Archeologist *Miha Mlinar*will take us through the history of the Tolmin region. The Humanist Society of the Gorica Region with the help of *Tonči Kuzmanić *will dig in the present-day political situation in Slovenia with an insight into the future. For all festival visitors Sajeta offers free camping in the immediate vicinity of the festival site. *Tickets: EVENTIM* Presale ticket prices: 4-day €45; weekend €35; Thursday, Friday, Saturday €15; Sunday €8. www.sajeta.org, www.facebook.com/sajeta.sotocje [email protected] +386(0)31645159
