Collective Food, Zine Workshop by Lu Lin
This is a co-learning workshop aiming to share possible tactics for using the zine as an artistic medium. Throughout the workshop, participants will delve into the collaborative process of zine-making, learning how to collectively bring together a multitude of ideas into a zine. By using food as a subject, the workshop will showcase examples of creating a food zine and how it becomes an editorial theme with various angles of thinking. Aiming to foster a co-learning environment, you are more than welcome to share your understanding and/or knowledge of possible uses of this medium towards a pool of open resources as a communal legacy. - 17.00 - 18.00 Uhr
“Fake Asian Mama and Supermarket Gum” Nomad papaya wagon feat. Wen Gum Gum, Artist talk
wen gum gum is a Taiwanese artist, graphic t-shirt designer and zine publisher. She is specialized in painting and moving images. Her observation focuses on how the media manipulates public ideology and transmits messages through the use of visual images.She uses the image as a tool for self-introspection and outlets, interweaving inner spirituality, the world, and the internet, with absurdity as an inevitable adornment to the process of making the work. she is concerned with the way in which mass media portrays characters, particularly in relation to the narrowing of gender roles.
The talk will start with a reading of her book “Depressed Cart” and following a dialog narrated by Nomad Papaya Wagon.

“Floating Dumplings and Dishes” Tsuí-kiáu Workshop by Living Room Collective
Tsuí-kiáu, Jiao-zi, Gyoza, Mandu, Bánh Bột Lọc, Ravioli, Tortellini, Pierogi, Varenyky, Pelmeni, Khinkali, Momdak, Samosa, Momo, Empanada…
In different regions and different languages there is always something that refers to a dish like some kind of filling wrapped or covered by dough. In Taiwan, we have Tsuí-kiáu. It is an everyday dish and also a special food for the lunar new year. In German, the word „Teigtaschen“ literally describes the notion —— „Dough Bag“. How to name the "Dough bag"Depends on how you deal with the idea of filling and dough.
As a collective, we spent a lot of time cooking and eating with each other. Making and sharing food that we're part of helps us understand each other as a fuller human being, discovering a friend who can clean the pot thoroughly as well. And to make all the gatherings possible, we need to keep the space clean and comfy, a space designed by and shared with our host, the social design class. Different groups come together by promising each other that the space will be kept clean.
Instead of having a celebration of the lunar new year only among us, on new years' eve, we would like to share our collective practice with you. A practice based on friendship and community. Let’s come and make Tsuí-kiáu, and wish for the Lunar New Year together.

Pride workshop by Ruxin and Shi
When asked, 'When was the last time you felt pride?' all of our friends hesitated. We tend to recognize the feeling of shame more strongly and vividly than pride. Beyond the Pride Parade, where else is this word being used?
At the time of the Lunar New Year, we want to invite you to join us in rethinking our relationship with Pride. Through the workshop, we will initiate a dialogue among the participants, discussing and sharing different layers of the feeling of pride. - 18.00 - 20.00 Uhr

Perfume Making Toolbox by Luca Laurora
I am Luca Laurora, I studied Time-based Media at Hfbk. For the past year I have been experimenting with odours as an artistic medium. My long-term project is to investigate the relationship between smell, the other senses and language in various social contexts. This workshop is the first step on this journey.The workshop aims to provide the basic skills to begin exploring olfactory language on your own. We will see what tools are needed, the types of ingredients, how to mix them and how to do it safely. The workshop will last three hours during which we will make a perfume collectively. Due to a logistical issue, the number of participants is limited to 10 people - ab 17 Uhr
