On the first evening of curator Dorothea Jendricke’s residency is the screening of Parc Central (2006) by Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster. A collection of eleven short poetic psycho-geographic portraits of cities and spaces. The decision to show this film may have been influenced by Jendricke’s current movement between cities and a heightened sense of surroundings.

Day two, Jendricke invites Norwegian curator/writer Leif Magne Tangen to present a lecture on a recent sci -fi novel he co-authored with an improbable group of art professionals. Named Philip (2006) after visionary sci-fi author Philip K. Dick and in keeping with the traditions of the genre, it plays with notions of philosophy, politics and religion.
