Zagreb Artists' Lab - evaluation notes 10.12.2008

Just a few notes taken during our evaluation talks about the artists' lab format:

• the labs should be an opportunity for new input for the participating artists;
• labs should be a hybrid format - not deciding in advance where it is on the spectre between open lab and workshop as two extremes, but deciding based on people's initial input;
• accessible working space is a must;
• time-management (and a person designated for the task), not content moderation;
• preparation by all participants in advance;
• need to break-up repetitiveness and routine (introducing daily stimulating physical activity, sonic experience or cognitive challenge, working odd hours);
• continuous evaluation of the process;
• "show & tell" - getting to know each others' work.
