I’ve just arrived home from Vals some hours ago and wanted to say to the organizers thanks for all the hard work you’ve done to make INCM009 such a great meeting and for helping lighting up the EASA spirit.
I hope to see you soon either in New Year’s Eve, any of the SESAMs or in Manchester next summer.

INCM Diary
The INCM009 has started! >The spirits couldnt be higher after the first days of the event! Check the News every morning on here!
Day One:
INCM 009 has begun, here is the sixth issue of the Ragaschiarmshhsagegsjf
aka the Umbrella. Now that people have finally arrived we can get down to the serious business of reporting on you and what your up to. So just remember watch your back cause we are watching your every move!
Rägaschiarm Issue 6: issuu.com
Day Two:
Day Two of this years INCM will definitly be a night to remember. After discussing the role of the NC within the Network and all its elements, the EASA History Night was a wonderfull moment, but as usual, we cannot describe it with words. We were just sitting there, thinking, wow-and we are part of this wonderfull idea of a Network for european architecture students, that has been living on since almost 30 Years? COOL! One of the Founders of the Liverpool Workshops, Geoff Haslam was visiting us in Liechtenstein. He has been texting Richard Murphy and told us, that Richard is a bid jealous for not being here with us. Next time we want both!
Alright?
Rägaschiarm Issue 7: issuu.com
Day Three and Four!
We know u are all waiting for the result! here it is, after 10 hours of discussion on two wonderfull, great Proposals from Spain and Romania. A big thanks to both of them!
EASA011 is going to SPAIN!
Rägaschiarm issue 8: issuu.com
Day Five:
The Organizers were always a bid worried that the INCM bidding would take to long, but just on time after 4.5 hours of presentation and discussions, the result was born! The fastest EASA bid discussion ever and that is a EASArecord! This is only reflecting the good team spirit that is among all the participants.
Thanks to all the Teams, Macedonia, Denmark and Germany for the great work!
INCM010 goes to Denmark!
Rägaschiarm Issue 9: issuu.com
Day Six and Seven:
GOOD JOB EVERYONE! after we moved 100 PPL to Chur, we are having a free day. Some of us already went to Vals and the others were checking out the Toms Beer Box with its 140 beers from all over the world. We told you before INCM, that Vals will be desearved from all of you!

RÄGASCHIARM ISSUE 2
hey there!42 days from now, you will enter the world of INCM009. Through snowstorms or sunshine – in october you can get anything here. By then, incredible artwork from all over europe will be ready to enrich the Kunstmuseum. A group of easians will be eager to show the strategy to get the easa-homepage done by the end of the INCM. Tonnes of essays will be written, some of them already published in a magazine. Loads of ideas of what easa is and where easa should go will be waiting to be discussed and presented.
We’re really looking forward to experience this world with you!

IMPORTANT: Travelling home on Monday the 26th of October:
Since some of you will be in Vals on Monday morning (Group 2), we want to remind you that you must at least count in 4-5 hours of Train/Bus to get to Zurich/Basel (CH) or Friedrichshafen (GER) Airport. Also since the Excursion is on Sunday, you might consider leaving on monday anyway, but try to book your flights in the Afternoon. also it wont make sence to book a flight to an airport with is not on our homepage (under transport), cause the train will just be costing as much as the amount you pay for a more expensive flight.
The Future of the Profession of Architecture
Easians that intend to come to the INCM:
Basically, we want to gather inspirational material concerning the future of the profession of architecture. Books, articles, videos or interviews. Anything you find/found and think is worth sharing, wheather you agree with its content or not… This should help you with your essay (The Future of the Profession of Architecture) and all of us with the workshop during the INCM! Cheers!

I suppose in some ways this refers to two or three quite broad topics in that the major influences on how EASA interacts with its context are:
i] Firstly, the site chosen and what its kind of urban/rural environment is; as this changes every year it’s impossible to set any rules for this.
ii] Secondly, there is the issue of the theme and its relation to the context – how helpful/exact it should be.
iii] Finally, there are the workshops and how they interact with the area during and affect it after the event is over.
Due to the fact that the first two points relate to something that is discussed in depth about a future event at the INCM, I think it is hard to make any solid conclusions/comments about them, as this is really for the future organisers to decide. However if anyone has anything to say about them put it down.
With regards to the workshops and how they affect the event after the event is over I think that something that tutors of workshops should look at while submitting proposals for anything that is to be constructed is: can it last?
This question I think is of paramount importance to the event. Too many built workshops, that are in essence well thought out pieces of work or useful structures for the local environment, are let down by the fact that in the final detailing of the project/or the choice of material that they become totally useless in the long run and actually have to be demolished by the organisers in the weeks after the event.
I know that some of these restrictions are due to the fact that the correct materials or finishing treatments could not be obtained by the organisers, or that certain tutors didn’t or couldn’t provide accurate materials lists prior to the event due to the nature of their workshops. I suppose what I am asking is:
i] would it be worth cutting down the number of workshops in order to complete them to a standard that would last long enough for the community to decide if they are useful to them or not?
ii] can we simply not be expected to produce the required workmanship to finish products to the level required?
Should it be up to the tutors to think about these kinds of issues before the event begins?
At any rate I suppose it is something that I would really like to get peoples feedback on.
