ISLANDS OF EXCHANGE

meet alumni and present students

Art & Science

In presence and open air at Vienna Prater Zirkuswiese


The Zirkuswiese in the Prater* is a place where many different worlds gather and is usually buzzing in the summer. Islands of exchange wants to connect these diverse worlds with a speed dating event. It offers also the occasion to connect within the Art & Science generations and exchange experience.
Small islands will be marked on the meadow and people are invited to exchange with the 'islanders' [YOU?] for 5 minute sessions. A fortune teller [Saša] will assign people to the 'islands' for a five minutes conversation. You can choose to be an islander or a visitor. In case you would be an islander think about a subject or object you would like to start the conversation with. If you like, prepare a small flag that represents your topic (it can also be a word that you write on it). You can also decide spontaneously on location whether you want to be an islander or a visitor. There will be material on site to create some kind of flag.

After the speed dating (the formal thing) we can just hang out, have a drink and continue the conversations. So come and join, be an islander or a visitor. If it is raining we are singing in the rain or just stay at home (depending on the severity of the rain). Please register at angewandtefestival.at/anmeldung or just come and see if there are places left.
