This project brings together the fields of Performance and New Musical Forms and Temporary Spaces to activate the ship Dauerwelle as a temporary artistic and institutional space within the context of the Breminale. Starting from the drifting boat, the project approaches the ship as a performative space shaped by infrastructures, regulations, urban dynamics, and cultural expectations, including historical maritime imaginaries, gendered mythologies, and notions of belonging. Based on Situationist analyses of spectacle and dérive, the project critically examines how artistic practices operate within temporary festival conditions and how institutions situate themselves in public space. We will develop individual or collective works at the intersection of spatial practices, performance, sound, installation, and time-based media, based on site-specific and situated research shaped by specific geographies, embodied experiences, and temporary encounters. The works are developed in direct relation to the ship and its temporary festival context.    The project includes conceptual input, discussions, collective planning, and on-site production phases, concluding with the presentation of works during the Breminale (01.07. – 05.07.).   Introduction: 09.04.2026, 10:00, Atelier 3.04.050 (Segment 4) --- This project brings together the fields of Performance and New Musical Forms and Temporary Spaces to activate the ship Dauerwelle as a temporary artistic and institutional space within the context of the Breminale.

As part of the Integrierendes Projekt, students may choose to participate in the Temporary Spaces Class program. Following a practice-based and research-oriented framework, the program includes workshops, lectures, excursions, reading groups, plenums, and a class exhibition. With the aim to critically reflect space as a time-based and location-based category, Temporary Spaces Class addresses historical, political, social, technological, and aesthetic aspects of our built environments and their material structures.  Beyond disciplinary conventions and boundaries, the class explores practices that include various media and experimentation with space, at different scales, from urban interventions to video, installation, performance, sound, and text. The works are research-based and engage with topics and methods ranging from site-specific approaches to historical finds, from feminist manifestos to queer theories, from critiques of modernism and standardization to socialist architectural utopias and urgent urban questions, such as the housing crisis. Temporary Spaces Class organizes participatory feedback sessions that include collective readings and discussions. In regular gatherings, related to their particular ideas and practices, participants come together to discuss processes and approaches, work with other class members and guests and develop their own (or collective) projects and reflexive aesthetic experiences.  Collective gatherings are in English.   This semester, Temporary Spaces Class engages in activating the ship Dauerwelle as a temporary artistic and institutional space within the context of the Breminale. For more information, please see the module description Dauerwelle ~ Drift as a Method.   Previously, the class has collaborated with and exhibited at institutions such as GAK Bremen, Pera Museum Istanbul, Großer Wasserspeicher Berlin, Kunsthalle Baden-Baden, documenta fifteen, Sinop Biennial, Weserburg Museum Bremen, Top e.V. Berlin, theater.prekariat Stuttgart, Schwankhalle Bremen, Theater Bremen, Württembergischer Kunstverein, etc.   ****Those who would like to take part in the Temporary Spaces program and plenum are invited to send an email by April 04, including their portfolio and a short statement about their interest in the class.**** Plenum: Thursdays starting from 10:00, Temporary Spaces Atelier 3.04.050 (Segment 4) --- As part of the Integrierendes Projekt, students may choose to participate in the Temporary Spaces Class program.
