IS THIS REAL LIFE? IS THIS JUST FANTASY? #2 | Location: Josefstädterstrasse 39, 1080 Vienna (AT) |
10 SEPT. 2020 |
'Cursingg into the Wind' is the title of Ria Pacquée's latest performance in public space in Vienna.
For the second time artists develop temporary projects for the public space of Josefstadt. The title of the one day festival, 'Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy', is borrowed from the bohemian Raphsody of the rock band Queen and alludes to the question of the social and individual construction of reality that meet in public space. Curated by Katharina Blaas and Conny Offergeld.
Other participating artists: Iris Andraschek, Johnathan Quinn, Laura Samaraweerovà, Romana Scheffknecht, Franz Kapfer and Sun Li Lian Obwegeser & Antonia Prochaska.
I appreciate how approachable you made what's usually a fairly dense subject. It's rare to see this explained without either dumbing it down or overcomplicating it. For a more practical, checklist version of this, take a look at https://cow-swaps.net/. Consider me subscribed.
You clearly know the subject, and it shows in how confidently this is all explained. What stood out to me was how you tied the smaller details back to the bigger picture. For a slightly different angle on the same idea, there's a bit more waiting at http://parafiakorzenna.pl/media/pgs/pitch_chooses_uncx_for_lp_lock_on_base__adding_a_fresh_use_case_for_defi_trust_infrastructure.html.
Nicely done — there's a lot of fluff out there on this, and your post avoids all of it. It's easy to overlook the basics, and you did a good job reminding readers why they matter. Some extra examples and notes live over at ethersfi if you'd like to keep exploring.
