never mind the bayeaux tapestry

heres the roubaix tapestry

or the beginings of it at least

@ 3 days ago abdal, riad, fabriz, giay and @ 4 other kids from dehors (outside) la condition publique entered into the buildings public street and together with EASA people the roubaix tapestry was started

as tutor of the “wandering workshop” i felt this was one of the most important workshops to happen, having talked considerably with laurent, manu, monsieur albatros and the team francais giant, i gathered that C;P hoped that we, EASA, might be able to make something magic happen, that perhaps we could make very direct strong connections with the buildings surroundings and with that create a situation whereby the people started to interact and use the building more, in time it would become their playspace.

roubaix, cette chose etranger peut etre serai une des choses plus interessant dans tous la monde, cest pour vous et votre endroit,
roubaix; this strange thing could be one of the most interesting things in all the world, its for you and your area

above is what i wrote on my second evening here at the condition publiaue; i had hoped EASA would really interact with the city and the people, some workshops did but i think overall it is a bit disapointing,
maybe easa and architecture will always only be a playground?

anyway we in wandering workshop tried our best…

but due to a petit incident the workshop was interupted
i will be coming back in septe,ber to finsih, or at least continue where i left off this time…….

beidh me arais
inshallah

”for the first time, we are witnessing the emergence of a “global civil society” represented by nongovernmental organizations, which are often active in several countries and communicate across borders…..whose vision is based on the respect of human dignity, the ethics of sustainability and an ecological view of the world”
wrote fritjof capra in “the hidden connections” (2002)


this was le petit cinema number 3 (night 3? of EASA
) ; the first one put on inside the condition publique; to the EASAians, as it was more important for us to work with the outside world, get more involved
after that undercurrents “globalisation and the media” went on
then planxty to cool down

showed
imc mayday, provoked huge debate, including people from nicaragua and el salvador; countries that really have felt the pain of unfair trade rules and the force of the US war machine

more stories and films and le petit cinema @ the streets of dublin to come

little by little

EASA and the architectural community are in a position to improve things
for the most part i do not like these communities as they are not interested in trying to really change things

those working for global justice are the ones that inspire me; it is a pleasure to work with them, it is only a matter of time before the ark community realise whats going on, or what went on,
hopefully they wont just read about it in books but they will actually be part of the growing network that is changing the world

allez les pirates

if you need to find out more about what my views are you can watch the 34 seconds longFUSPEY film manifesto,
