'5½ Proposals to Work and Live in the Current Millennium' has its genesis on the reflection about labour and productivity.
This first event presents two days of screenings, lectures and group activities, organized in a programme that aims to open the discussion to 'unproductive' work forms, and how they can be used as a response to the current demand for productivity within the labour sphere, and outside of it. This program counts with the participation and works by: Maja Bekan, Ronald Bos, Doris Denekamp, Harun Farocki, Stephanie Feeney, Sarah Forrest and Sven Lütticken.
