VIDEO CLUB 2008-9

program ... documentation ... contact, etc.

///ABOUT PROGRAMS///

programs are presented in a relaxed environment and with the intent to avoid didacticism
and binary relations, in contrast to recent pedagogical trends in cultural undertakings.
in video club there is no front, no back and no center, and no correct answer.

programs consist of videos produced by video club members as well as
works from various online collections, which function as counterpoints or complements.

to be informed about days and programs by email, please contact vic()vicarious()de
