Will Work For Food at Boltzmann Institute in Linz, Austria

July 4th, 2007 Linz

The mission of the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute Media.Art.Research is to archive, publish and perform scholarly work on media art and related media theory including the extensive holdings of the Ars Electronica Archive. Maybe thats why they asked for an assiduous robot vehicle. They promised to send a Linzertorte.

Working for the Austrian Communist Party (KPÖ) in Linz while Mayday.

On 1 May a group of vehicles is going to demonstrate on the main square of Linz, the Hauptplatz. From that time on, the residents of the Neustadt quarter and interested visitors can pick up vehicles at the gallery KunstRaum Goethestrasse.
The “Will Work For Food” happening takes place from 25 to 27 May at the KunstRaum Goethestrasse and deals with the desire to find a new definition of labour. The event centres on new ideas of what work means to the individual and focuses on the disjunction of work from covering the cost-of-living of the individual. “Will Work For Food” provides an occasion and a space for social interaction and discussion. On location, in the gallery, the bartered food will be prepared and new vehicles will be produced.
