I WILL WRITE EVERY YEAR AND IN THE COURSE OF THE YEAR CONPTUAL EDUCATIONAL FRAMEWORKS PEOPLE CAN READ!!!

Ljubljana, 27.09.2008

Class, In few days starts the new school year 2008/2009. With Petja and Edi we worked for the entrance exams and 10 new students are accepted. They will show up on the 6. October, please come to the common meeting at 16.00 in our class, we present each other and start to work.

The program for OCTOBER 2008 will be sent in the next two days, and will be the mail no 4. As always each month program is posted the first of that month on our blog: m1.antville.org

I would like to put on paper some thoughts and also what I intend to send to you. Mail 2 and 3 I will announce TWO exceptional SEMINARS that will take part in 0ctober 2008/January 2009. I think you should take all of you these two courses, we are around 50 in the class NOW (with the new 10) and you should put these days in your calendar!

In mail 2 I will ANNOUNCE THE NEW FILM DOCUMENTARY program by DANIEL ERLACHER. In mail 3 I will ANNOUNCE THE SEMINAR on Central Europe Art History, that will be facilitated by me and two extra assistants Ivan Jurica and Ivana Marjanovic.

OUR "REGULAR" TUTOR is Okenna Okafor (Octiber2008-February2009). The proposal to have Okenna as TUTOR, the possibility to realize this proposal was possible by the extraordinary engagement by Can and Edi.

The party/ action and activation for Okenna(s) the 10.10.2008 it is a great effort, important and the only possible gesture to be done. In the past many amongst you, especially Lukas, Kevin, Petja, Edi, did a great job in helping him and keeping us "ANGRY" (that is good) for the shit situation in Europe regarding asylum, migrations, papers, RIGHTS...

This is not a list of who and what but just a modest recognition that we have to do something concrete or nothing changes....

I would like to say look through classes, change if necessary (IF NOT STAY WITH US) or just be with us -;, go for Erasmus exchange, and take the activities in OUR class seriously, come to the meetings, lectures, presentations. Please take the advantage of the seminars by Petja and Edi, and also Prof. Harun Farocki...

EACH OF YOU HAVE TO HAVE A PRESENTATION, the format is yours (BE MY GUEST, challenge us, and we will challenge you!) the dates will be proposed. But to show a proper work and be open for the discussion on the work is one of the priority of this class...

As always and this is firmly, those who comes to the lectures and seminars will be graded, the grade/mark is an outcome of a consequent dedication, the so called "quality" of the work is not graded (haha), but is DISCUSSED, CONTESTED and FRAMED in A LARGER CONTEXT.

Those who are not showing up simply to say will not be graded; those who works, reads, questions or just sit in the class and think, will be graded. I do not see obstacles to get the best mark. Thinking is a process, after every thinking and being silent it is a wish to talk, to explode, say that we are just without sense.

COME TO THE READINGS OF THEORY! DO NOT DISMISS THIS POSSIBILITY!

IF YOU HAVE ANY TROUBLE LET ME KNOW! EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE TO BE SOLVED; RULES ARE ESTABLISHED PRECISELY TO QUESTION THEM. I am not a snob! It is not necessary a special introduction to contact me, not a perfect grammar knowledge to write to me and talk to me! But you have to have a politics and a concept regarding what you do and what you want! If not you have to form them in the course of studies.

I would like to thank for the work Petja and Edi, for what they did in the past (I change I will thank them in the beginning of every of the next 6 years and not in the end!), and I am already looking forward to our collective work, as said we see us officially 6.10. The whole program will be sent and as well put on our BLOG: check it regularly: m1.antville.org

EACH MONTH the program is posted there on the 1 of the month! So you can plan clearly each month in advance what you would like to do, 20 percent is always the plus and minus you have to trade with others, the 80 percent save for our classes and seminars and our common projects and work.

Next two mails ARE ANNOUNCING two exceptional seminars on film and theory. Both will be as well incorporated in the normal class monthly prepared program.
