Description:

Held in public venues, audience members sign up for a 30 minute one-on-one sessions with an expert (sociologist, sanitation worker, neighbor, scientist,
artist) for one Euro. Attendees can book several different sessions with “knowledge service personnel” during the night, or choose to listen to others’ conversations via headphones. Each conversation is made available in an online archive.

Goals:

“A hallucinated community college will be produced in which learning and unlearning, knowledge and non-knowledge, and strategies of living and surviving
will change ownership in a non-institutional way. The transfer of knowledge as a communicative and performative act will become a collectively, whispered
story of knowledge on this night.” (Mobile Academy)

Beneficial Outcomes:

Transfer of knowledge between participants and experts. Talks are made available online and in an Encyclopedia.
