On one hand, the public space is not anymore the streets and squares in where our parents expressed themselves in demonstrations and festivals or where they met with friends and lovers. The public space now is a virtual space in social networks where everything can happen, an undefined space, a magma of individuality that could be living thousands kilometers away one from each other as is the case of this workshop.

But the other space, now a meaningless public space, the physical public space, is still full of Histories and Stories of the past. Most of them stories of anonymous people who lived, loved, and died in those places. That physical public space is made of multiple layers of lives, is a place haunted by our own ghosts and the memory.

How we can deal with these two ideas and use the performance art to connect both public spaces? We will work theoretically and practically with these ideas as a background territory of speculation.

We invite each workshop participant to prepare in advance a short intervention of about 3 - 4 minutes describing a story related to a physical place nearby using words or/and images.
