In 1997
Italian artist Paolo Moretto and i wrote the manifesto "Transindustriell"
(Trans Industrial). In the same year we started with activities under
the label Transindustriell (exhibitions called manifestations). In
the following years a number of artists came together in different
combinations and for different activities like exhibitions, manifestations,
performances to form in a spontaneous way the idea of transindualism.
Already in the beginning Jan van Wissen had in his series of unwritten
books the title "The raise and Fall of the Transindustrial Empire".
And he was right. After a long time of agony we decided to terminate
TI: the funeral party took place in Hamburg in October 2009.
Paolo
and i are now moving forward to KO*OP (see KO*OPweb).
The main
TI activities were:
The
Trans Industrial Manifesto
The
Trans Industrial Congress 1999 (TIC 99)
The Trans Industrial Manifestations
(TIM)
The Trans Industrial Toy Orchestra (TITO)
And now something
completely different
