// Live TV shows on public squares in Józsefváros, Budapest on the topic of housing

// April-May 2016

// Józsefváros, Budapest

Social Housing is a burning issue in Hungary and especially in Budapest where homelessness, evictions and renting prices explode. Through playful art mixed up with deep discussions a dialog was created to reach out for a broader public for this topic. The performances that combined TV, street and performance were live events where people gathered to learn new points about it. An exchange platform was brought to life: actors and artists helped to make the show entertaining and played with the topics while they learnt from the content and ideas about housing from the activists they encountered and worked together.
The shows were recorded and are and will be screened in very diverse locations from schools over community houses to private film clubs. We hope to generate attention and an inspiration for people to gather, support existing initiatives who come up with new solutions and develop new inputs to solve the situation.

The Pap Family Besets Leipzig – PAPLAMENT III.

Posted on by mokusok

// A series of changing performances between theater, radio and interactive celebration space
// Aug – Sept , 2015, LOFFT Theater, Leipzig & Jan, 2016, Schwankhalle Bremen & Feb – Mar, 2016, KRASSFESTIVAL, Kampnagel Hamburg, in the frame of Szenenwechsel

The Pap family is a nomadic tribe; its most famous member is Rika Pap who can magically transmute herself into money. No one knows the exact origin of these Redskins who shine like stardust from the Puszta.

On their raids, these new Huns occupy gray city squares, dark stages, empty backyards and convert them into switching points of movement. They ride on wild radio waves through border fences, construct their yurts from old election boards on the squares, and cultivate ritual meetings with the residents there. In their theater shows, they grind the ideas and people they’ve encountered into radio waves and paprika.
Now at last, the Pap-penheimers come to the LOFFT. What awaits us is written in glowing red pepper fairy tales. There are rumors that their weapons are getting sharper and their attacks are recently not just of theatrical kind. We are excited and fear for our reputable skin. They are numerous. They are everywhere.
Maybe also in your apparatus. Je suis Radio.
