UPCOMING
FOREST-TRIPIT! -WORKSHOP
Sunday 25.5. at 12-16 in Meri-Rastila forest in Helsinki, close to Rastila metro station
The legendary TRIPIT! -Other Spaces Exercise Festival is heading to the forest in May. Festival is held as a two part workshop and includes both new and old Other Spaces exercises connected to the forest environment.
In the Forest-Tripit! -workshop, The Other Spaces collective will perform corporeal collective exercises together with the participants. Exercises allow you to immerse into various phenomena of the forest ecosystem and more than human worlds. Everyone is welcome to participate, previous experience is not needed.
A voluntary participation fee: 5-10 €. Payment with MobilePay on the location.
More information and specific meeting places will be sent via email for the participants. You may take part in the entire workshop at 12-16 pm or 12-14pm or 14-16 pm.
TRIPIT! -festival takes place outside, so please wear comfortable clothing and dress up according to the weather. A little rain will be ok. Bring a drinking bottle and if you wish, a sandwich or snacks.
The workshop is in Finnish but translation can be arranged if needed! Let us know beforehand.
At the TRIPIT! exercise festival we perform some of our trippiest exercises together with the audience.
Since 2004 Other Spaces has invented a large amount of collective corporeal transformation exercises. These exercises are a means to come into contact with non-human forms, entities and phenomena. They are an enjoyable way to be liberated from the human shape and identity, at least momentarily.
The first TRIPIT! Festival was organised in May 2017. Spurred by the enthusiastic reception, in 2018 and 2019 we organised TRIPIT! twice each year, and the festival has become an important part of our yearly operations. TRIPIT! is a day long event, where you can come and go at any time.
In 2020 TRIPIT! was organized remotely via Facebook and Zoom.
Are you interested in joining the Other Spaces collective? TRIPIT is the place to be! At the exercise festival you can try out the exercises and practices of the group and meet our members.
