“What you really need” Heads Down the Home Stretch
The “What you really need” project runs until April 24. Approximately 60 artists and scholars—and their audiences too—are inquiring into life’s essentials.
To accommodate these efforts that have been underway since March 3, the MKH–Medien Kultur Haus in Wels has been relieved of its everyday function and turned into a think tank and production venue. Ateliers and labs have been installed as settings for workshops and educational programs. Participants have access to a recording studio and a radio studio. There’s a bicycle mobility center as well as a canteen. “What you really need” is providing thinkers, producers and MKH activists with more time than they’re accustomed to for their own projects as well as collective activities, and plenty of space for a radical new situation.But “What you really need” isn’t only active in Wels. Three more events are scheduled for Linz before the project concludes. First up is Cannes Festival participant Siegfried A. Fruhauf, who’ll be appearing at Saturn in Passage Linz on Tuesday, April 7 at 6-6:30 PM to ask: How much data does a film need to actually be a film? Is a single pixel enough? On April 14, the Thalia Bookshop on Linz’s Landstraße will host “The Cheerful Living Room” with poet duo Ilse Kilic and Fritz Widhalm. The final presentation in Linz is set for April 21, when French experimental duo “Silent Block” takes the stage aboard MS Traisen in Linz Harbor.
The finale of “What you really need” will be on April 24 in MKH in Wels.
