[Bircsák Eszter]

> In one week we participate in 3 events which are in correlation  
> with 'special embassy' and our new resident artist,
>
> Andrew Gryf Paterson.
>
> Andrew will spend 1 month researching the conceptual and historical  
> elements of bilateral embassy missions, for example, history of  
> diplomatic network relations, ambassador, roles, functions of  
> embassies and foreign office, and the diplomatic services they offer.
>
> Benefiting from the environment of a lab which focuses on  
> experimental interaction design, media art and technology, he will  
> also consider the above topic in relation to open source activism,  
> and networked and mobile platforms.
>
>
> 'Diplomatic Service' discussion event/seminar
>
> Friday September 12, 2008, 15:00-18:00
> Kitchen Budapest media lab, IX Raday u. 30 (Biblia köz)
>
> (Note: Parallel event with Cultural Centre 'CK', Skopje.)
>
> Contributing to the Imaginary Border Academy workshop in Skopje,  
> this seminar will explore the concept of a 'special embassy'. This  
> seminar will happen between persons present in both Skopje and  
> Budapest venues, coordinated on the Hungarian side by Andrew Gryf  
> Paterson and other Kitchen Budapest researchers.
>
> We will investigate, via participatory exercises and short  
> presentations together, the types of diplomatic services an embassy  
> for autonomous and mobile groups could offer to those who interface  
> with it. The results of the seminar period will contribute to the  
> dedicated 'special embassy' wiki.

> Trans-European Fence Climbing Summit 2008
>
> Sunday September 14, 2008, 14:00-
> Kitchen Budapest media lab, IX Raday u. 30 (Biblia köz)
>
> (Note: Parallel event with Summit initiators Kayle Brandon & Heath  
> Bunting (Bristol) in Warsaw, and others in Berlin and Skopje.)
>
> Synchronise watches and prepare for a unified hand and foot  
> transeuropean fence climbing tour. Become physically engaged with  
> fences, barriers, walls and all infrastructure designed to bounder  
> space. The summit is a celebration and an action study of barrier  
> fabric. As a stranger or lover to climbing take too it; climb alone  
> or with a group, mark out route or just drift. The intention is not  
> to overwhelm and penetrate the boundary but to surface, traverse,  
> scale and ascend it. As one hand takes hold of a fence in Warsaw, a  
> foot will lift a body onto a wall in Budapest, a person will get to  
> the top in Skopje and a hand will reach for the next hold in  
> Berlin ....
> In the evening at 20:00 (CET) consider joining in on a mass online  
> post climb conference.
