PROVO, AUTONOMY, AND LUDIC POLITICS
The legendary Dutch anarchist movement Provo
staged political and cultural interventions into
the symbolic and everyday spaces of Holland from
1965 - 1967. The rise and fall of Provo stretches
from early Dutch "happenings" staged in 1962 to
the "Death of Provo" in 1967. Although a small
group they cast a disproportionately large shadow
on the events of the time due to their skillful
analysis of social unrest among Dutch youth. By
tying their political program to the rich magical
heritage of Amsterdam's bohemian subculture they
created political street theater that captured the
pulse of Amsterdam's population.
Come join us to celebrate the release of Provo:
Amsterdm's Anarchist Revolt by Richard Kempton,
the first book length English history and analysis
of Provo. We will be joined by several of the
members of Provo including Hans Plomp, Auke
Boersma, Luud Schimmelpennink and Nico van
Apeldoorn. The evening will include appearances by
members of Radio Joy (
http://radiojoy.co.uk) as
well as recently recovered and translated video
footage from the period. We will explore the
history and activities of Provo, tracing out their
legacies and continuing influence in the realm of
autonomist politics and ludic interventions in
public space.

PRE-SOLSTICE IN THE FOUNDRY LIBRARY
Anticipate and celebrate Winter Solstice at the Foundry.
Works by David Binns, Jill Rock, perhaps others,
will be exhibited over 15th-20th December.
Our contributions focus on the implications of the
reassertion of direct solar light, on the other
side of the longest night of the year, within the
cycle that is really a spiral - or something even
more complexly simple.
Special Event with poetry readings and music:
Wednesday 16th December, from 8.00pm

LONDON MEDIA PLAYGROUND
Resonance104.4fm presents an afternoon and evening of media frolics
As part of
Broadcast Media Sculptures, Media
Playground is the second of two such projects
presented by Resonance104.4fm. This Playground
present movies, discussion and radiophonic
sound-art in the distinctive surroundings of
London's Foundry bar. Media commentators,
activists and critics join film-makers and
radio-artists for a day of informal innovation and
broadcast experimentation - of the kind one would
expect from what the
Radio Academy has called "a
unique station in a saturated and largely
homogenous radio market... a station that simply
couldn't be found anywhere else and that strongly
identifies with - and super-serves - London's
creative and artistic community."
At 2pm: discussion for broadcast - Pathological Over-Sharing.
Featuring Becky Hogge (New Statesman, Open
Knowledge Foundation), Ken Hollings (Destroy All
Monsters), Mark Rock (Audioboo, Best Before Media)
and Paul May (The Whale in the Room). As social
networks proliferate, newspapers retreat and
self-exposure goes global, a panel of culturally
savvy thinkers gather to address such questions
as, Is the internet a tool for democratic change
or economic repression? What is the individual's
impact on media? And what is the impact of the
media on social space?
At 3.30pm: Screenings of
The London Perambulator
followed by discussion with director John Rogers &
subject Nick Papadimitriou. And
Class Wargames
presents Guy Debord's The Game of War, followed by
discussion with instigator Richard Barbrook,
philosopher Stefan Lutschinger and director Ilze
Black - plus a collective playing of Debord's game.
At 8pm: The Resonance Radio Orchestra presents a
new radiophonic soundtrack to Paul Wegener's 1920
film of Gustav Meyrink's psychogeographical
thriller, The Golem, with multiple screen
projection: "Once in every generation a spiritual
epidemic spreads like lightning through the ghetto
and causing a kind of mirage in the shape of a
being characteristic of the place, one which lived
here hundreds of years ago and still yearns for
physical form."
Plus Resonance104.4fm DJS including Lepke B and DJ
Wrongspeed in the bar, 9pm till midnight.
CHRISTMAS and NEW YEAR...
The Foundry is closed until Tuesday 5 January..

JERICO ORCHESTRA
HOT TUNE's warm and captivating music stands
between Monk and Rabih Abou-Khalil, passing
through the Canterbury school, travelling from
East to West, going into passionate and
energetic improvisations and stepping outside
boundaries. Hot Tune proposes an original
electric music repertoire of distortions and
dream-like visions
A complex but direct and powerful music
between rock and jazz, free and ethnic
impressions.
