An idea I've been having for some four months: Let's get in touch with a bostadsbolag of some sort, and find out if it's possible for us to rent some premises! I'm thinking run-down factories or warehouses, maybe in Malmö. Through my ventilation work, I've visited huge rooms inhabited by photographs and other artists, all in Helsingborg. The idea of a monstrous space in the outskirts of a town, with a disapearingly small rent, isn't that the perfect playground for people of our guild? Imagine a forum where the SweTechs can practice what they're best at: making art! We could be making movies, paint, rehearse, record, throw parties, host performances, have concerts... Of course, for me, this wouldn't be possible until I'm back in Skåne, but my intention is to plant a seed into your minds. Fuck the financial crisis, this is a thing that actually CAN be done. OK, maybe I'm hyping our abilities a bit to much now, seeing that we will soon be scattered all over Europe. Maybe this plan of mine can't be actualized during 2009... But if we all finally end up in the same city, (either in Sweden or not) this is what I want to do with YOU. And I'm fucking serious!

HELL YES! You wouldn't have any idea as to what the price range would be?

That would be grand! A really great idea.
It probably is true though, that it will take some time before it's actually doable.
It's a really exhillirating idea, to have that kind of workshop where all types of activities could take place!
