Room for the
quiet, odd &
poetic web
The National Film School of Denmark
Friday, August 11th, 2023
8:30 am to 3:30 pm
Dear visitorYou are invited to join Naive Yearly: the room for the quiet, odd and poetic web. The inaugural edition takes place in Copenhagen at the National Film School of Denmark. We meet on a Friday when the sunflowers bloom: it is Aphrodite’s day, the Greek goddess of love, lust and beauty, and the day that bridges the days of work with rest.We’ll gather people who expand what the web is and can be. Artists, designers, educators, developers, writers and organizers who avoid nostalgia and technological utopias but use the internet and the open protocols to invite us to see the world anew in the present tense. As such, it is a day of the art of living.My wish is to foster an atmosphere that steers us like a gentle river, away from abstraction and into the wild sea with our pockets full of sunflower seeds, the Ukrainian national flower, cursed to follow the sun with their heads because the nymph Clytie fell in love with Apollo.With care
Kristoffer
