Lunch Bytes Helsinki #3: Society: The Commons at Galleria Sinne, Wednesday 19.11. at 18:00. Welcome! This Lunch Bytes event looks at the commons, a concept that has gained attention in recent debates on online culture, as well as cultural production more generally. Participants: Julieta Aranda (artist, co-founder of e-flux and Time/Bank, Berlin), Oliver Kochta-Kalleinen (artist, Helsinki), Jaakko Pallasvuo (artist, Helsinki) and Matteo Pasquinelli (philosopher, London). The event is curated by Melanie Bühler and Pixelache. The discussion will look at alternative ways to collectively manage resources for artistic production, such as on- and offline spaces, exhibition rooms, tools of production, and networks for knowledge exchange and production. It will inquire what the consequences are when concepts related to the commons meet with the realities of production. Furthermore, it will critically discuss the value of the commons in relationship to the widely shared experience of precarity, as public funding for the arts is eroding and entrepreneurial strategies seem to govern both the arts and the current online environment.
