BITW startup information meeting

Topics

• What is Being in the world project?
  BITW builds on a interdisciplinary, modular structure. It's emphasasing the group research on the concept of "landscape" in a wider meaning (being in the world). It has its peaks during the exhibition which is a kind of report of the gained result.
• How can one be a part of the project?
  There are several levels of engagement in BITW:
  - as a core BITW project leader
  - as project leader for a subtopic and exhibition
  - as a guest participant.
• What should one think of when being a project manager for a sub theme.
  You are free to choose a subtopic within the notion of landscape. You are free to gather fitting research members. You are free to pick a suitable presentation (usually an exhibition). The ideas, practicalities are shared within the group.
• Places to have a show in Helsinki and funding.
  Several options was discussed as well as fundings.
• The BITW compendium was distributed and discussed.
  The compendium can be seen as a living document that keeps the overall project framwork. It's important for all particioants to read and relate to it.
