Hello, I am Joanna. I am contributing in the role as a Catalyst/writer in The Flash Job Campaign from June 1st - 15th. Throughout this project I will dedicate my blog to the stories, FAQ's and tips and tricks and I might have. My first contribution is to publish the text I submitted in my application for the project. Among the eleven Catalysts and the two writers (from the Project "Open Dialogues") we agreed to share our application-texts, since this seems like a fair way to start our relationship.
DESCRIBE YOUR REASONS FOR APPLYING, AS WELL AS RELEVANT PAST EXPERIENCES (IF
ANY)
I am extremely interested in the idea of bringing different people together for
a positive good. I will be writing as part of the Open Dialogues:New Life
Berlin project from 1st to 5th June, and would embrace the chance to be
involved in this project and then respond through texts and photography. For me
personally, Live Art and Contemporary performance - and all art which crosses
those boundaries - is about making things happen and intervening with the
'accepted' format of how we lead our lives. Through culture I think perceptions
can be changed and miraculous moments of discovery can be had. This sounds like
an exciting project, that does something about a so-called 'issue' in a hands
on way.
