REPORT: CRACKING THE CITY
Marcello • June 22. 2009 • PLATOON.area
what a great start of the PLATOON summer!we had a very chilled day last saturday for the opening of the Cracking the City exhibition.
we´d like to thank all of you who came and hope you enjoyed the event as much as we did.
for those who missed it, here is a short report.
during the day we hosted two small 'cracks' presented in a site-specific manner. the collective repairberlin, a group of activists, artists, architects and scientists presented their series of urban intervention consisting in parking a symbolic park on a carpark in front of our headquarters. the action itself is part of a worldwide movement Park(ing) day established by rebar, an art and design collective from San Francisco. expect to see more of their spontaneous interventions during this summer.
in the afternoon we also presented two very special guest, the discouraging duo blue&joy. who performed on top of our container, showing us tiny line between happines and sadness.
the exhibition will run till 25th of july and is open Mon-Fri 11-20h. feel free to pass by and share your ''crack'' directly on the wall by pasting stickers.
and dont forget... every thursday from 9 pm our members are invited to join us at our PLATOON.BERLIN area. jette will offer her special drinks and music... and in order to keep your mind engaged with some quality entertainment we will surprise you every thursday with some special performances ;-)
stay tuned!
REPORT.FINISSAGE

the score panel before everything started

3 hours to go; the think-tank was used as the changing room for the bboys

so mean: it was pouring ALL DAY!

nevertheless the hotdogs from the grill on the rooftop were excellent; in order to cool down from the hot temperatures you could enjoy korean icecream called \"heat chaser\"

the event was followed by a public broadcasting channel

WOW

it was packed with fans

THE WINNER: ATA from finland
REPORT: MONSTER JAM 2009
Hyun--Jeong Kim • June 22. 2009 • KUNSTHALLE
last saturday the platoon kunsthalle in seoul hosted the monster jam b-boy battle 2009. the t.i.p crew did their best in order to proof what t.i.p means: teamwork is perfect.16 b-boys from different countries battled against each other with amazing popping, krumping, locking, stepping, jumping, twisting, spinning, freezing and many more movements.
as some guests were under age it was not allowed to smoke in the kunsthalle until 10 pm - very unusual for a platoon event^^
thank you t.i.p crew for the great event! respect!

CRACKING THE CITYwe want to invite everybody to this scientific art project about subcultural movements and interventions in urban context by our PLATOON recruit kuch alias PUF:
"cracking the city is a research project about spatial outcome of subculture. it deals with phenomena of increasing informal creativity and innovative strategies in over-networked society. the process of “cracking” represents dynamic resistance to established urban hierarchy and patterns of behavior. an open-source diagram shows examples of “cracking” illuminating their nature, authors and urban context. everybody is invited to contribute "cracks" to this project."

the exhibition will start the PLATOON.SUMMER 2009 in our yard with BBQ every saturday. jette is back from seoul and will serve the best drinks of the town again.
