Thinktank

Presentation of Thinktank by Inga Zimprich in cooperation with Elske Rosenfeld. Thinktank is a research and development project on the potential for strengthening community work through virtual structures.  During February 2006 five discussion days were organized in cooperation with ‘Public Space With A Roof’ and the Jan van Eyck Academie (art academy). In April 5 booklets about the Thinktank meetings were presented.

Some fragments of Think Tank conversations:

Often, what seems participatory at first sight is a different sort of business-structure, just wage-less?

Ok let me answer, I'm very much interested in several ways of working. The projects enlarge my way of thinking, and create possibilities to unstand the way of working or other people. The interaction creates interesting discussions, and a lot of energy in this period.

what is important to keep the structure from petrifying, keeping it dynamic, which is often only possible through breaks. i like escape technologies in that respect right now. drop out.

I think working autonomous has a lot to do with analysing the world around you and you're position in it. When you collaborate it means you'll have to figure out together what you want and how.

not always wageless, but then you are often dealing with external partners, which implies parameters. because where does the money come from that can be circulated or divided within a network? usually not from selling drinks or records

'authorship problems'... have to do with the unclarity and maybe above mentioned difference between the collaboration and cooperation, what is the goal and whose development is first?

For me collaborating with other people is stimulating and the only way to develop myself and my ideas

We all relate to other people, previously made thoughts, works, ideas etc. But what interets me is foremost the way how you relate to the people you work with.
