No registration required. Admission free. Seats limited. Please be on
time for each thematic bloc, performance or screening.

Throughout three intense days the symposium will be an experimental
space for expressing and sharing ideas – a place for intervening,
investigating and provoking collective discussions on how to re-activate
play’s potentiality in urban space, considered as a playground of
deskilled, affective and precarious labor.

The symposium aims at relocating the notion of play from the outdoor to
the outside as an ecology and extended space for experimentation and
micropolitics beyond spatial confinement. We ask how such an outside
emerges through practices unfolding and altering dominant diagrams of
power in urban environments. Here, playing-together involves the
capacity of forces of resistance to create situations as intensive
fields of affection through the micropolitics of diagrammatic practices.
Both, playing bodies and the process of learning as a common, a
self-productive and living knowledge, perpetuate new forms of social
subjectivity and its immanent growth between power, knowledge and an
aesthetics of existence.

Bringing together artists, curators, activists and thinkers from the
fields of performance, art, aesthetic theory, philosophy, architecture
and design, the symposium comprises talks, artistic interventions,
performances and screenings.
