The Institute for the Art and Practice of Dissent at Home invites you to Pack-It-Up 08.
The Institute for the Art and Practice of Dissent at Home is run by twoaddthree (Gary Anderson, Lena Simic, Neal, Gabriel and Sid) from a council flat bedroom in Liverpool.
The Institute for the Art and Practice of Dissent at Home has been set up to coincide with the Liverpool 08 European Capital of Culture as a space for dissenting the Capitalism of Culture.
The Institute for the Art and Practice of Dissent at Home will host a number of events, residencies and conversations throughout 2008.
twoaddthree are moving. We’re leaving L17 Aigburth for L6 Everton. In the spirit of Liverpool 08 we have decided to REGENERATE our living space! We need your help with the move. As a cultural event with capital we will pay you for your participation. You will be paid to help us with packing our stuff: clothes, books, toys the lot! Maybe even do the runs between Aigburth and Everton.
Working days are in January 08: Saturday 19th, Sunday 20th, Saturday 26th and Sunday 27th. Mornings, Afternoons or Evenings. We’re always open. Choose your shift.
All packers and runners will be paid according to their labour.
Minimum booking: 1 hour.
Minimum wage paid for cultural workers and audience members.
Special Capital of Culture rate £5.52 per hour.
Cash in hand.
Possibility of further earnings, food, drink and lodgings for travelers from afar (sofa bed/floor in the living room).
As we pack we’ll chat about Liverpool08 and regeneration, social housing, homemade aesthetics and money matters.
The Institute for the Art and Practice of Dissent at Home is funded by 10% of twoaddthree’s combined annual net income (i.e. two 0.5 lectureship salaries, some freelance work, tax credits and child benefit) which makes it £2, 857.10. Our January income has already been put aside for Pack-It-Up 08.
Get involved, get packing and get paid!
