First presentation of OuUnPo<\/strong><\/p>\n

Saturday, 23 January 2010<\/em>
\nMACRO, via Reggio Emilia 54, Rome, Italy<\/p>\n

Press release<\/strong><\/p>\n

Please join us for the first meeting of the newly founded OuUnPo, taking place in Rome. You\u2019re more than welcome to enroll in one of the following sections, or just drop in while the meeting is in progress.<\/p>\n

Share ideas with OuUnPo members Meris Angioletti, Daniele Balit, Yane Calovski, Cecilia Canziani, Jacob Dahl J\u00fcrgensen, Adrienne Drake, Mark Geffriaud, Per H\u00fcttner, Raimundas Malasauskas, Darius Miksys, Jacopo Miliani, Daniela Paes Leao, Samon Takahashi and Stephen Whitmarsh.<\/p>\n

Creation
\nis the first and most important section. New methods of experimentation are discussed, with descriptions and examples, and OuUnPo members will talk about new ideas for projects. A constraint can be presented by one or more OuUnPo members. Many constraints can also generate complements, variations, renovations.<\/p>\n

Rumination
\nis the section in which possible, \u2018not yet worked out\u2019 projects are examined. Here, ideas of new constraints are discussed, though they are still not developed enough to produce a work and, consequently, to be part of the previous section. A part of the ruminations are also reflections on fundamental oulipian notions: constraint, potential, etc.<\/p>\n

Erudition
\nis a conversation about works by non OuUnPo members. In this section works that were created before the existence of OuUnPo are presented. The authors of these works are called \u201cplagiarizers by anticipation\u201d.
\nIt is not unusual that an erudition, after discussion and adaptation, leads the workshop towards one or more creations.<\/p>\n

Action, past and Future
\nfeatures OuUnPo activities around the globe. All actions that have been staged outside of the workshop (public lectures, commissions, etc) are recalled and discussed in order to be evaluated and to list the next scheduled or interventions.<\/p>\n

Small Talk or Gossip
\nWell, that\u2019s straightforward enough!<\/p>\n

Notes:
\nThe event marks the final step of If you don\u2019t want god you\u2019d better have a multiverse<\/em>, an itinerant project which explores the concepts of time, space and the role of subjectivity. The project intends to address art as place where these concepts can be translated into form and become the location for interplay between artists, curators, academics and the public.<\/p>\n

OuUnPo is a play upon Oulipo: Ouvroir de litt\u00e9rature potentielle (\u201cworkshop of potential literature”), a loose gathering of (mainly) French-speaking writers and mathematicians which seeks to create works using constrained writing techniques. It was founded in 1960 by Raymond Queneau and Fran\u00e7ois Le Lionnais, while other notable members include novelists Georges Perec, Italo Calvino and Herv\u00e9 Le Tellier, poet Oskar Pastior and poet\/mathematician Jacques Roubaud. The group defines the term ‘litt\u00e9rature potentielle’ as: “the seeking of new structures and patterns which may be used by writers in any way they enjoy.”
\nConstraints are used as a means of triggering ideas and inspiration. As well as established techniques, such as lipograms and palindromes, the group devises new techniques, often based on mathematical problems such as the Knight’s Tour of the chess-board and permutations. Oounpo works in the same way, though its primary concern is visual art.<\/p>\n
