 +"In october 2013 we had a great experience with our colleagues during one week of (nearly) doing nothing. we were creating a design for the week with some simple structures and tools to provide a frame for the group. after a time together in the morning with breakfeast and coffee, we started each day with a walk. walks in a special area - the east of linz; harbor, industrial zone,… 
 +after the walks we were guests at our host's places. also these hosts, sometimes a group, somethimes a single person didn't know what we were exactly up to. the only information given before was, that a group of doing-nothing-people will come. and this situation was one of the "great surprises" for us. it brought all the pacticipants into a very open, concentrated, lidless position. it opened a field of beeing in contact with people - some of whom you know, others you don't - in another way.
 +
 +All the people from our group and also our hosts were invited as the entire person they are. we were together not for work, nor to discuss something in particular; not to find anything out, not with a concrete theme or issue and nobody had to be a specialist for whatever … 
 +all the people were asked to be only themselves. they were not asked for their profession (artist, performer,…) or because they were particularely successful in anything. all these things weren't important for this coming and being together.
 +and still, in the evenings of those days it felt as if the group had become larger and larger and our experience was that the time together with these people was so inspiring, a respectful learning from each other by doing-nothing together."
