[events from ´92] [publications from ´92] [magyar] EVENTS IN 2003
2003 - THE YEAR OF THE THREE IN ARTPOOL From chance (0) and impossibility (1) derives doubt (2) and from this derives threefoldness. Viewing it from an other perspective, from any two hypotheses comes a third kind which surpasses the former ones. The motto of the year: "all statements that lack contradiction are false since reality is contradictory". (Vilém Flusser)

In addition to the theme "Anniversary", a program of the Budapest Spring Festival 14-31 March 2003, Wednesday and Friday, 4-6 p.m., Artpool P60 ANNIVERSARIES OF THE THIRD KIND The exhibition consists of the documents piled up by chance or collected purposely at Artpool archives recalling art events which took place between 14-31 March in the past 30 years. Preserving memories is a cultural act as there is no culture without remembrance. Anniversary, keeping memories alive is a form of celebration. Each day carries a great variety of memories, commemorations and anniversaries. As a member of a culture and a sovereign human being, every individual relates to his memories, which constitute his identity, by remembering them. It happens sometimes that a non-personal yet non-social memory comes up, which is a "third kind" of memory being in between the former two. As Robert Filliou puts it, "in the eternal network", in "the space of permanent creation" the memories of third kind make each day an anniversary that is how life becomes "La Fête Permanente / a permanent celebration".
9-12 April 2003, Városi Színház "Unexpected

festival At the festival inspired by the book Törvénytelen avantgárd (Illegal Avant-garde), the book was presented by Péter Halász.

The secret agent reporting on the exhibition at the time claimed that the works ‘mock and attack our state and our social order as well as the state security organs’. György Galántai, the instigator of this exhibition, and founder with Julia Klaniczay of the Artpool Art Research Centre in Budapest, will present documentation from the original exhibition, the last to be banned in Hungary. The secret police documents and material from subsequent reconstructions of Hungary can be yours! will also be on display. Related

OUT, THE MEMES ARE COMING! Although still a young discipline, memetics makes a dynamic progress by drawing on from different fields of science. Namely genetics, the theory of evolution, informatics, virology, psychology, and the cognitive sciences. It already plays the role among sciences that once semiotics had. It is concerned with the information patterns named memes which biologist Richard Dawkins had originally defined as the cultural equivalents to genes and viruses. Putting forward his ideas in his book The Selfish Gene, Dawkins himself has created an effective meme, infecting the thoughts of his fellow-researchers. This is no wonder since in this discipline, fight goes on for one of the rarest treasure of the information society, attention, while our brains prove to be a dunghill in which the seeds of others` ideas come to new life.
