The transit lounge is the archetypal transit space, the point where the hyper-global + hyper-local coincide; a location which blurs traditional conceptions of geo-political boundaries, creating pockets of international space within the borders of individual nation-states. An in-between space, it exists relative to a fixed departure and arrival point, not to the area that surrounds it.

The Transit Lounge is a series of overlapping residencies for Australian and German artists and architects in Berlin. It is also a blog where themes relating to the project will develop, collaborations will be initiated and sustained, and observations on the city collected. The Transit Lounge invites you to participate in these transnational conversations by commenting on the blog.

The transit lounge is supported by Culturia and the DAZ

TRANSIT LOUNGE 2008: BERLIN BRISBANE PERTH MELBOURNE SYDNEY

TRANSIT LOUNGE 2008 – BERLIN-BRISBANE-PERTH-MELBOURNE-SYDNEY

In 2008, TRANSIT LOUNGE begins in TRUDE, Calvino’s ubiquitous city of tourism. From the 16th of January, TRUDE will be found between the cities of Berlin, Brisbane, Perth, Melbourne, Sydney, as 15 artists collaborate remotely on the evolution of a complex, emergent structure.

The platform for this trans-disciplinary exchange is the TRANSIT LOUNGE website, powered by open-source, wiki software. An organic structure, the site grows in multiple directions as the content is layered and interlinked, tracing remote interactions and local interventions between artists. The latency of these dialogues across time zones and locations creates feedback loops (local interventions – web – local interventions) opening up spaces for mistranslation resonating between the different cities.

The multitude of inputs, exchanges, and disruptions will be distilled in an exhibition which opens in Berlin at PROGRAM on the 31st January, 2008 to coincide with transmediale.08. Here the variations will continue to multiply as the process is augmented by the actions of visitors to the space.

TRANSIT LOUNGE is a project by Katie Hepworth (Sydney) and Miriam Mlecek (Berlin) and involves the following artists:

Chris Bennie (Brisbane), Bianca Calandra (Berlin), Robert Curgenven (Berlin), Cat Hope (Perth), Tanja Kimme (Melbourne), Govinda Lange (Paris-Berlin), Somaya Langley (Berlin), Sarah Last (Brisbane), Silvia Marzall (Berlin), Ben Milbourne (Melbourne), Michael Prior (Melbourne), Lynda Roberts (Melbourne), Jodi Rose (Berlin), Sumugan Sivanesan (Sydney), Anna Tautfest (Berlin)

I've on all occasions liked things like sand clocks, lava lamps, and the like to kind of virtuous fritter away time staring at it as a cut of catharsis. In a way, it helps me with meditation, to free stress and decent deem about nothing. That's why since I was a kid, in preference to of dolls and cars I've eternally cool more of such pieces like sand clocks, lava lamps, dulcet boxes etc. So I was most enchanted when I establish the[url=http://www.dealtoworld.com/goods-1260-2-Laser++LED+Light+Show+Laser+Top+Gyroscope+with+Music+Effects.html] 2-Laser + LED Light Show Laser Ace Gyroscope with Music Effects[/url] from DealtoWorld.com under the aegis the Toys section. It's like a harmonious caddy, a spinning top, and a radiance reveal all rolled into one. Which is prodigious diversion! The gyroscope will whirl object of around a minute. The laser light manifest with accompanying music makes this gyroscope a measure unique bauble that my friends get also been most amused with.

My dogs are also beautiful outr?nearly the laser gyroscope I got from DealtoWorld.com. They each attend the gyroscope as it spins, although at first they kept barking at the laser insight advertise, and also because it produces music. But after they got employed it, they've stopped barking but virtuous watch over following the gyroscope whenever I start spinning it. Kids are also unbelievably amused next to it. On occasion it's good to have pleasing toys around the blood so that you can desert the small on while the kids are being amused or playing with it while you live fit out food or get changed. The gyroscope is inseparable such trinket with this purpose.

The gyroscope I bought from DealtoWorld.com has a dragon as a map on it, and produces a light exposition with red, downcast, and unskilled colours. Steal a look at the pictures I've uploaded of the gyroscope with laser incandescence show. The music produced from the gyroscope is not that expert but decorous sufficiency to consider any chic customer to the house. The gyroscope is red and raven, making it look exceedingly cool, and slightly macho with that dragon imprint.

The music dismount attack make clear gyroscope runs on 6 LR44 batteries, which are replaceable anyway. I've also utilized this gyroscope to stagger my girlfriend during our anniversary celebration. I did the cheesy chore of decorating the pension room with roses and when I led her in, I started up the gyroscope as affectionately so that the laser light clarify produces a fresh effect. I also had some battery operated candles so all the light effects created a rather dreamt-up atmosphere. She loved it, past the going, to my relief. I also bought the candles from DealtoWorld.com. These days it seems to be my default shopping put in return all gifts and ideas in behalf of fancied occasions.

Since Christmas is coming, this laser light show gyroscope can possibly be a momentous Christmas gift in behalf of the toddler or in spite of the favoured! Alternatively, the gyroscope can altogether be a kindly summation to the traditional Christmas decorations. I can imagine placing it within a mile of the Christmas tree and maybe spinning it when guests reach in the house. Looks like [url=http://www.dealtoworld.com]DealtoWorld.com[/url] is getting my duty still again!
