The invited guests - scientists, architects, artists, curators - will present their theories and projects, all dealing in different ways with particular divergences from regular and dominant systems, i.e. the exploration of various possibilities of establishing alternative systems.

- Jože BarŔi
Architect and artist, Professor of Sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts in Ljubljana. He will present several of his artistic projects (House, Toilet) through which he explores the relation between art, its function and everyday life.

- Francesco Bernardelli
Curator and critic; lives and works in Torino. He will present radical architectural collectives, who were active in 60s and 70s in Italy (UFO, Archizoom, Superstudio idr.) and were intertwining design, architecture and everyday life with the goal of a positive social change.

- Andrej Detela
Physicist and inventor. Andrej Detela will present the research he conducts in the field of physics, mainly the research on developing various types of motors for electric vehicles of the next generation and the possibilities of alternative energy resources. He will focus on his ten year long development of a prototype motor for DD (direct drive) electric vehicles, and finally he will establish the basic principles of an electric airplane.

- Marko PogaÄ?nik
Academic sculptor who started dealing with energetic-ecological healing of the environment as early as in the 80s. He is also known as the member of the Slovene conceptualist art group OHO. His presentation will focus on the closing chapter of the group's work (1970), when they stepped out of the world/institution of art, moved to the countryside and establish a commune i.e. Å empas Community where they interweaved art and life.

- Marjetica PotrÄ?
Artist, architect and urban anthropologist. She will present the research that derives out of her work on the Caracas Case Project in Caracas, Venezuela, in 2003.

- Igor Zabel
Critic and curator, employed as curator in the Museum of Modern Art in Ljubljana. Igor Zabel will present the collective exhibition Individual Systems, which he curated within the frame of last year?s Venice Biennale. The exhibition questioned the relation between art as an autonomous system and the social context and dealt with positive-utopian and negative-antagonistic aspects of the idea of ordered system as an essential part of Modernism.
