GUIDEBOOK
Freedom is a word, which has been
declinated by every case in the last months.
It is desired by everyone and for many it is
something priceless. But what does the word
mean for us, personally? What value does
it have for us, immersed in consumptivecorporative world? Do we feel that we have
it or not at all? Its multi-dimensionality
doesn’t help in giving easy answers to these
and many other questions. Bu freedom is
what allows us to ask them. Moreover,
it forces us to make choices. It depends
on us how we think and how we realize our
thoughts. Freedom is a source of infinite
possibilities…
You have 5 unique days ahead of you and
your free will as well. How you use that time
is entirely up to you. What will you “develop
a taste” for? What will you experience? Will
you learn something more about yourself?
What will you bring in the lives of other?
What will you share with them? What will
they learn from you? The quality of the next
days will be determined by your choices.
Your heart is free, have the courage to
follow it.

PATHES
4
We are all unique, have different tastes and different moods. That’s why when creating the programme for SAF we try to include something for everyone here. The
consequence is a huge amount of items on the programme. To help you find the most
interesting propositions, we have create 4 programme paths. The paths refer to specified palette of our preferences, characters and moods. Each one of the paths is of
course a subjective selection done by its curators. To categorize them some way we
have given them names of the four elements:
WATER
Path charted for those of us, who like
more niche kind of things, demanding
focus, reflection and commitment.
Recommended by Andrzej Horyza.
WIND
Path for people who like strong flavours. What does that mean? Rocking,
expansive self-expression, desire to
personally contribute, not only to take
from the others. Recommended by
Tomasz Bogowski.
FIRE
SWAG is just a key word. If you know
it there is a great Chance you will
deem this path the best for yourself.
You are looking for good fun, do not
feel like serious meditation, enjoy,
YOLO. Recommended by Marcin
Młynek.
EARTH
Path created with travellers, worldcurious people, concerned with its
future in mind. Recommended by
Kasia i Łukasz Kaleta.

gathered in one hut and bandsmen would
play Silesian songs for them, in which there
were all of the elements of the culture of
Upper Silesia. There is nothing like that
today. Krzikopa confronts this situation by
putting cultural authenticity of „Silesian
ditties” into the contemporary meaning of
words „let’s go party”.

musicians, not rarely supporting their
work on albums. On their debut disc Mikromusic many valued artists appeared

arrangements they create an unique
microclimate, constructing a particular
bond with the audience.

HOPE AGAINST HOPE
- spirit filled hc – They come from hardcore / punk backgrounds but their biggest inspiration is the person of Jesus.
In their music they combine energy and
melody with reality of God in their hearts.
Concrete music with concrete message.
Antiperspirant won’t help, one song and
you will melt.
Thursday, 10.07
NIESTETY
– punk – Fortunately there are still bands
that blast punk rock like in the good old
days. And they are not some old hands,
but quite a young crew. Without needless
musical acrobatics. “simply played,
simple rhythm, simple beat, simple
play” quoting the classics of the genre :)
We are not in the opera after all, it’s all
about being loud, fast and to scream out
a couple important things.
FIVE SECONDS TO LEAVE
- post rock Czech skupina, which transfers us into the land of post rock, but we
will find a good deal of sludge, ambient,
drone elements. Psychedelic, compositions dragging in like quick-sand. Penetrating virtually epic atmosphere, comfot.: Mateusz Bilski

positions lazily unfolding transform into
a storm of sounds. Monumentality. Dark,
mysterious music. .
Friday, 11.07
FATE
- punky reggae – It’s a band that gained
quite a popularity in the ‘90s on independent scene. Then they rocked exceptionally and now – after a long break – they
come back to performing. In their music
they mix melodic punk rock with elements of reggae. Their lyrics bear strong
message, that doesn’t leave people indifferent, that moves the hearts, and after
all that’s the most important thing!

red by Polish folklore on one hand and
modern achievements on the other.
GARS
- post hc - Hard, dark and trans-y, piercing
vocals and a pinch of melancholy. Sounds
erupting like a volcano but at moments
it’s calm and delicate. Very mature music,
perfected sound and the poetics of lyrics
hit like a 200-hundred-pound hammer.
This music machine rolls slowly, crushing
everything in its way.
REGRES
- hardcore-punk – Sincerity, message, involvement, noise, that brings about a lot
of positive emotions. For many years on
stage, but still with the same passion
and consequence in creating sound, that
move and inspire. Their trademark are
very spontaneous and energetic concerts, during which there is no place for
divisions, exclusion, exclusivity. It’s their
second visit at SLOT and they are very
happy about it.

experience playing in folk (Bumtralala, Iglika, Południca!), punk (Ziemniaki),
metal (Crowmoth), indie-rock (SuperXiu,

decided to create a band that is a musical
fiction, a kind of time machine taking the
listeners into the interwar Poland. Armed
with an instrumentarium of a street band
they play energetic, simple punk inspifot.: Tomasz Kiliszek

Down/Look Closer. Dancefloor characteristics of his productions obliged him to try
his strength as DJ. He has played alongside such stars as Black Sun Empire or

of them, which do not let you keep your
seated spots. He will be equally eager to
show you around the reality called TRAP/
FOOTWORK/DEEP HOUSE/FUNKY BREAKS.

“But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being
not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.”

Presenting their work:
Grzegorz ”Forin” Piwnicki
graphic designer, Graduate of the Department of Graphics of Academy of Fine
Arts in Warsaw (diploma with merit in
the studio of prof. Lech Majewski 2011).
He experiments with various media. Creates installations, social projects. He has
already published many works in Poland
and abroad as well as numerous individual
projects.
“Project freedom is a grassroots social
action. When I started this project, I thought that I knew what freedom is. I knew
what stood behind it, what is not freedom.
I was wrong. First description went to garbage, it wouldn’t do, because it limited the
freedom of others and I wanted to touch
the essence somehow. This seemingly
easy question became a prison for some
and a sad journey to the unreachable.”
Toruń, Plymouth. She has already gained
prizes and commendations in all-Poland
art and photography contests.
„Subjective space picture series refers
to my own experiences and subjectivity
of events remembered from my past. In
created fragments of painting composition
I find similarities with shapes known to
me or places where I have already been.
I go back to my memories from the past,
spaces where I spent my childhood or
where I have been “for a moment”. The
goal of my works is striving towards such
viewings of space, that in its object relations touched the searches in the field of
generalisation. While painting I try to annex
territories subjectively relevant, enlivening
imagination, which allow me to write in my
own self in the frames of picture representations.”
Willem Zijlstra
YELLO [yellonus creativus]
lives in Bussum , a village near Amsterdam.
He gained his education in a college of Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam. Willem Zijlstra started his artistic career as an illustrator and painter, later he started working in

Utrecht, Pons Institute in Madrid.
Katarzyna Gauer

Kinga Pudełek
The graduate of the Social High School of
Arts. Photography accompanies her for
years, she majored in that field this year.
Her passion is painting, which is also her
route to escape from reality. Multimedia
techniques are hey way to earn a living
„In the movie everyone can dream I attempted to present my view on dreams. Using
one character and keeping one steady
frame I wanted to keep the form simple for
the benefit of broader content. In my work
I focus on dreams, to which many people
doesn’t pay too much attention.
Katarzyna Wyrembelska,
The graduate of painting on the Art University in Poznań. The artists’ works are characterized by expression and great sensitivity to colour and matter. Her contrary, often
grotesque way of seeing the world, which
we can find both in the field of painting and
animation, is supposed to make the viewer
reflect – in this case – on the question of
the freedom of man in 21st century.
Rafał Nowak
Graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in
Poznań. He graduated with merit in the
studio of sculpture of prof. Józef Kopczyński. He presented his works on many exhibitions, incl. Gdańsk, Wrocław, Berlin, Ottawa.

Freedom.
Tomek Soin
Graphic designer, illustrator, musician.
Studied at the Architecture Department of
the University of Science in Warsaw. He is
active in Steiger International. “The exhibition, being the part of the WAYOUT project,
is a contemporary reference to the Way
of the Cross, but showing the way to the
cross from the point of view of ordinary
man. This way leads through experiences,
that everybody is touched by in his life and
that were not unfamiliar also to Jesus:
fear, burden, resentment, treason, etc.
His ultimate goal was however something
much more positive, that’s why the road
left open is the road to the exit”
Ewa Boguszewska
Graduated from Art University in Poznań
from the Department of Painting. Monochromatic paintings, created with traditional ink technique are the attempt to find
the record of the processes taking place
inside, thoughts not yet formed by the
verbal language by throwing out the excess
of signs, gestures, set-ups. Specific language of spots opens up a new dimension of
connotations by reaching to the memory,
imagination, spirituality, expresses the
fight between familiarizing and resenting,
integration and separation, calmness and
chaos, silence and the jabber of words.

WHAT SLOT IS?
SLOT
is a platform uniting people for whom Christianity is an inspiration to get
involved in cultural, educational and social activity. SLOT is more of a movement than
an organization – it’s hard to set the boundaries for ideas, especially when their carriers
are people.
SLOT is a Public Benefit Organization (OPP) – which means that you can donate 1%
of your income tax to support its activities. KRS (National Court Register) number is
0000163877. SLOT – Local Creative Centers Association – does not engage in commercial activity and is not profit-oriented. All of the income is allocated to statutory
activities.

SLOT DNA
This text is an attempt to express what is important for those who create SLOT.
It’s a combination of many different perspectives that partially describe reality and
partially portray dreams and aspirations.
# CREATIVITY AND DEVELOPMENT
We’re interested in creativity. Change, movement and development are
all parts of the art of life that we want to master.
If we decide that we’ve attained those attributes it will be a sign
that we’re lost. We don’t only want to react. The passion, energy, lightness and
beauty we find when we create is missing in reaction.
We need and seek inspiration and we want to be that for others.
# FREEDOM
We offer a standing invitation to be authentic, to be exactly who you are. There is
richness in our diversity.
A second word must be used along with freedom- responsibility.
Responsibility for people and other creatures which live with us
and alongside us as well as for the space we inhabit.
# MEETING
It’s possible to pass by, but it’s also possible to meet.
We choose the latter. We can desire to understand and to be understood.
Out of these options we prefer the first.
SLOT is like a mountain shelter where travelers meet.
Their meeting is important regardless of the path
they’ve chosen or the goal they’ve set.
# LOVE
We base our activities on relationships, friendships and community.
This conscious attempt to look beyond “my wants” or “my needs”
whether as individuals or in groups is most important.
This is what gives meaning to our work.
Love is very practical. It’s the awareness and desire to stop for someone when
everything is pushing us forward. If there is ever a final evaluation
of our lives, without a doubt we will be questioned about this
# GOD
We believe in Jesus. It’s simple but not always the same.
This is our foundation and the deeper we go in it, the more our
inspiration flows for creativity, for justice, for freedom
and to be ourselves with others and for others.
Much also flows from this foundation for those
of us who think and believe differently.
Things get muddled when we forget that “only the important things
are important’, that it’s a journey and not a religion
It’s good to remind ourselves of this then.
