10X24H EXPERIMENTAL AREA

Out of the lecture halls, into the countryside! Out of the university, into the Lungau! Explore, tinker or just hang out – it’s your space, your care and your freedom. Together you can explore spatial, social, cultural and economic peculiarities of Lungau and Salzburger Land and, if possible, respond to them with site-specific projects. In addition, you can expect exciting lectures, discussions and other offers within the framework of the festival, as well as the opportunity for interaction and exchange with the artists and visitors of the festival.

What you can expect

Students and trainees from different disciplines face the question: How do we want to research artistically, autonomously and improvised, how do we want to learn with each other and for each other and deal with the social and natural spaces that surround us? The peculiarities of the alpine region Lungau will be questioned and explored in the context of our own, shared as well as unfamiliar realities of life.

We don’t want to wait for knowledge to be served to us, we want to go in search of the places where unexpected insights await us – leaving the urban comfort zones and their supposed certainties, entering rural heights and depths, the inbetween of alpine adventures.

We interact spontaneously with the artists and visitors of Supergau festival 2023, with local collaborators as well as activists – keynotes, workshops, tours and more are waiting…

But there is also room for easy hanging out – exploring what arises spontaneously without a plan, what connections grow without targets. Leaving behind the stress to perform, entering curiosity!
