Open Circuit #1: Yogyakarta is a gathering of artists, curators, writers and other cultural producers from different parts of the world, aiming to analyze ways of approaching various local social and cultural contexts. Open Circuit is a central project of Electric Palm Tree’s first year of existence, sharing its interests in comparatively looking at different (regional) discourses on the socio-political transformations in the world of the last decades and at new intellectual and artistic vocabularies describing encounters of difference. The work in Yogyakarta is set to be the basis for an exhibition next March at SMBA Amsterdam.

Open Circuit adalah proyek utama Electric Palm Tree, di tahun pertamanya, yang menawarkan kemenarikan pandangan komparatif perbedaan diskursus (regional) terhadap transformasi sosial-politik di dunia pada abad terakhir dan pada kosakata intelektual dan artistik baru dalam mendeskripsikan perbedaan yang tak terduga ini. Program yang dilaksanakan di Yogyakarta ini akan mendasari ekshibisi Maret mendatang di SMBA Amsterdam.
