Skype Meetings. Work to do! Teil 3

Communication takes centre stage in the third part of the series Work to do! To enable a direct and simultaneously transnational exchange of experience in the field of self-organised work in precarious working conditions, we would like to try skyping as a discussion format. The point of departure for the Skype Meetings project was a series of meetings with self-organised initiatives in Zurich (part 1 of Work to do!) and the “dialogical discussion series” devoted to working conditions with protagonists from feminist theory and practice (part 2 of Work to do!). Taking place at various locations in Zurich, these discussion formats were part of a “public research”. Actors from this local context and broader research contexts concerned with self-organised work were invited to propose dialogue partners for discussion rounds and experience exchange they could not meet directly. For this purpose the “Skype” software program, available free of charge, was used to hold telephone conversations and video conferences via the Internet. These talks were recorded and will be presented in audio and visual formats in the exhibition.
