Mapping Komiza Narratives

workshop in Komiža...

 

Our concept of researching the city Komiza trough new media begun with the title Women who rule Komiža. It sounds as a very promising topic and an utterly attractive one as well. And it was indeed. This topic led us to discover insides of Komiza and Komizan people aka: komizians. It is known that important jobs in this city are run by female directors. The mayor of the city is female as are the director of nautic center, director of school, director of elderly home, director of kindergarten, director of “komunala” system and a few more.

KoMiške Muhe

evo me.. končno na kavi z internetom :) mal smo se lovili, ampak zdej smo že v polnem pogonu. Komiža je kar luštno malo mestece, ampak ima tud svoje "muhe". v razsutem hotelu je hrana bl švoh, posrežba pa še bolj. zgleda, kot da še vedno živijo v jugo duhu, kjer so natakarji, kuharji, in sobarice, bolj pomembni od gostov - ne ve se, kdo je kje zaradi koga- kar je še kar smešno, ko se enkrat navadiš. včeraj sem bila v Titovi špilji, kjer se je kao skrival naš tovariš med II. svet vojno. cel otok je prepreden z rovi in vojaškimi bazami, ki se vijejo po težko prehodnem terenu polnem bodičevja in divjega rožmarina. vsake tolko zadiši po rožičih in smokvah, ki so sladke kot med, ko se enkrat dokoplješ do

Venice in me...

DINOSAURS IN VENICE? //22.11.2012// 

Yes, I finally woke up in Venice, city of extremeness. It is fascinating, but to live here you have to get used to it. Everything is so intense and I still feel a little lost. Water everywhere, no hills just here and there you see a tree. Tourists all over. Museum city, which of course hides local people, and students, that you can easily miss if your sight doesn’t reach further than the infrastructure for massive tourism.

But when you turn in another direction and walk into a street that you don’t want to, then you see the beauty of fallen-apart fasades in the medieval labyrinth of this magical city. On the next corner you end up in a stinky restaurant with cheep bad food and you can’t believe that’s possible in Italy. On the wall you see a picture of a dinosaur in Venice, and the laughter makes the bed food more digestible. And then you realize, that Venice is like a big dinosaur being kept alive, for the fun of todays mankind.
