nordicomædia
In collaboration with the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, represented by the Italian Institute of Culture in Copenhagen, and supported by Europæisk Kulturregion, NORDICOMÆDIA is a multi-year project, which aims at creating a connecting bridge between the Nordic and Mediterranean culture within storytelling forms.
The young participants will work creatively in the process by attending workshops held by Humanlab (DK) and cognitive scientist Mariano Pugliese (IT) in active collaboration with schools and cultural institutions in Denmark.

the liquid actor
The concept of liquid modernity was coined by the sociologist and philosopher Zygmunt Bauman as a metaphor to describe the condition of constant mobility and change he sees in relationships, identities, and global economics within contemporary society.
Fragility, temporariness, vulnerability, and inclination to constant change. To be modern means to modernize. compulsively, obsessively; not so much just "to be", let alone to keep its identity intact, but forever "becoming", avoiding completion, staying underdefined.
Change is the only permanence, and uncertainty is the only certainty.
Uncertainty and precarity become part of our life, even more in the artistic field.
Can we talk about a new shape of actor, which I name the LIQUID ACTOR?

Performing in Non Places
According to the French anthropologist Marc Augé, train stations could be defined as "Non-places." "Non-places" are spaces where millions of individualities intersect without entering into relationships, driven by the frenetic desire to consume and accelerate daily routines. "Non-places" are spaces like airports, shopping malls, waiting rooms, or train stations: they are places that have similar characteristics worldwide, and where every traveler feels reassured in their anonymity. People pass through "Non-places," but no one lives there.
What if someone lived in a train station?
