ruth is, we’ve been waiting for you! Now that you are a proud organism in the 34th European Architecture Students Assembly – EASA 2014 Symбиоза – let’s kick off and experience two unforgettable weeks together. This here booklet should stick around your pocket at all times, as it contains plenty useful information. Here we go…

e are proud with Grigor Dimitrov lately and Hristo Stoichkov back in the days, though we didn’t make it to the Football World Cup this time. Bulgarians are known for their hospitality, and we sincerely hope that you feel it too. Traditional food is amazing – tarator, gyuvech, shopska salad, skara – taste these and many others in local restaurants. The National flag is nothing special by design, although it is the only flag in the world that has never been taken in battles by opponent armies. Bulgaria has a paradise-like climate with five strongly expressed seasons – summer, autumn, winter, spring and EASA. It is possible that in September you can ski in Rila Mountain and swim in the Black See at the same time. Bulgaria is actually the highest country on the Balkans – Musala peak has an eye on it all from 2925 meters above sea level, therefore 2765 above see level at the moment. A sweet home to an amazing diversity of flora & fauna, Bulgaria shelters one of Europe’s greatest amounts of species. Catch some crazy animals roaring in the back country, though the roads are so bad you could hardly get there. Maybe that’s why… Last, but at last – Bulgaria is a proud host of EASA for the first time. And for this reason is even more beautiful for you this summer. Massive respect to all the ancestors and future organizers:

he former Bulgarian Capital – Veliko Tarnovo – is where the first National Constitution after the Liberation from the Ottoman Empire in 1878 was written and signed. A city with two universities, two beer factories, two capital letters in the name and only one main street. We skip the history lesson here, as we are sure you will go through all the museums and galleries to find out about the amazing past of the city. What’s on the news this month is that on September 4th Veliko Tarnovo will hopefully win the battle for European Capital of Culture for 2019 against the cities of Sofia, Plovdiv and Varna. So put your heart into it – EASA can do it. This would be a lovely opportunity for you to come back again in 5 years. You should know EASA marriages are a fact already.

o thing is whole unto itself, for it is merely a part of a larger whole. Everything in this universe is connected. Every action is the result of a prior one, and is in itself the reason for all subsequent actions. A spider web, where every vibration causes the whole structure to swing, in harmony, forever.

Aim

Symбиоза seeks to advocate among students of architecture the feeling of oneness of all natural and social phenomena and the non-superiority of THE architect in building the world of tomorrow. The theme aims to investigate architecture as part of a complex network, where every element is substantially affected by the behavior of all others. A butterfly flutters in Veliko Tarnovo, a surf-storm hits Hawaii.

Let’s now articulate a few main Symбиоза relations that EASA 2014 will focus on:

Architecture & nature

It is always a pleasure for the eye to see an architectural project that harmoniously fits its natural surroundings: a morphology that communicates with the relief and the use of intrinsic materials that correlate to the textures of the place. In other words – architecture and nature that are “bodily” connected.

Historical layers

EASA 2014 will focus on the Symбиoза between buildings and monuments from different historical periods – how they can coexist, respect and complement one another. Veliko Tarnovo is the perfect playground for that investigation. The city shelters architecture from periods since 12th century BC to the present days. What is most peculiar is that all these layers exist simultaneously - they spread horizontally, creating a unique time-line of visible historical layers.

For both local people and tourists, the city has gained a preserved-type image which the municipality is eager to break. This gives us a massive potential to experiment with the architectural heritage and the most contemporary tendencies in architecture. With the maximum of respect, that is.

Cultural Symбиоза

A vast number of different cultures inhabit our planet – from the Eskimos on the North Pole, through the many European, Eastern, African, South American and many other cultures. They have all developed strong identities, religions and traditions in the course of history, according to the climate, geological characteristics, ancestors and other factors at their homeland. Today, in the globalizing world with mass-communications and fast transportation methods available, these cultures interweave more and more, often causing cultural clashes. On the one hand, it is normal to perceive “invaders” as a threat to your identity and hearth. Many cultures have tried to completely overwhelm others, exploiting them for selfish benefits. On the other hand, we find out that both sides can benefit from one another, even by adopting a simple hand-work tool.

We’re all here together to investigate the means of cultural Symбиоза: how different cultures can coexist, interweave and enrich one another, but at the same time each one preserving its strong identity.

Arts Symбиоза

Different arts have always influenced one another. It is a known saying that architecture is frozen music. This years’ workshops will try to investigate how architecture can communicate with different arts and crafts – painting, sculpture, music, theatre, etc.

Social Symбиоза

Some workshops will focus on the mixture of different social groups:

a) How can people from different ethnic backgrounds live in harmony and freely express their cultural customs and religious views? The predominant minorities in Bulgaria are gypsies and Turkish people.

b) How can architecture help people from different generations come together and feel connected? Elder people face fundamental difficulties in actively participating in society and the activities of the city. Young people too often discriminate or just forget about older people’s needs, causing a double-sided problem – the isolation of the elderly, and the lack of social experience for the young.

c) How can architecture concern the needs of homeless people and people with disabilities? How can we help the homeless children from the region feel equivalent in the city scene and actively participate in social life? How do we design public city spaces in a way that people with physical or mental difficulties can enjoy them just as the rest of the citizens?

_lapse tutors Aleksandra Bogdanović (srb) Stella-Maris Latinović (srb) “A drawing should be an investigative device, a voyage of discovery, a series of glances into the future.” – Peter Cook. Drawing is a tool. Repetition of process of drawing to infinity allows individual dislocation from space and time and ourselves. By drawing we record the flow of thoughts-cognition of the unconscious by preoccupation of the conscious self-knowledge. It’s about confrontation of the man with the place, but also a symbiotic interaction... relation between a host and a parasite. The result is a story on A4 with hundreds of drawings, found relations, written thoughts about yourself as a participant, a man, catching the change of own perception during time, observing and learning through drawing one chosen cadre for 10 days in continuity.

The purpose of this workshop is to incorporate traditional Balkan building materials (as wood, hazel or corneal branches, stones, lime, soil, straw) into contemporary urban design. With this creating a link between nature and the modern urban fabric. First we’ll get familiar with the properties of the traditional materials such as: Wood, Stone, Wattle fence, Mud plasters and Mortars. Afterwards we’ll explore the site of the intervention, city of Veliko Tarnovo itself, and its architecture. Feel the vibe of the place and form an idea for our intervention. In week two we’ll get the chance to learn and try some of the traditional building techniques of the Balkans. While turning our design into reality.

Our project aims to bring back the appreciation of the Yantra River. The river is no longer needed as a source of trade or industrial use, but should be appreciated for what it is a natural beauty. We propose to construct a boathouse on the riverbank that will provide a shelter for those who wish to use the Yantra as a form of leisure activity. The boathouse will also provide a relaxation space and a place for the storage of watersports equipment. It aims to use the potential of the Yantra River and provide the residents with a base from which to explore and discover its natural beauty, reviving the symbiosis between people and river.

We’ll think in the forest, work in the forest and sleep in the forest. The goal is to create a space which stretches out into the nature and surrounds the trees like a canvas. It is an illustration of a neuron, representation of the basic existence of our psychological and intellectual inner mechanisms. The antiroom creates a space where ideas can be exchanged, where people can dance, play roles, sing, or simply express their unity with the primordial world. The structure is made by repetitive simple wood element: pallets – the transcription of our European community. Simple to build and ephemeral as ever long and lasting. After finishing the pavilion we foresee to have one performance day.

Using vintage mechanical techniques the workshop will recreate a camera obscura photographic device. Incorporating it in a small tall structure, made from timber and polywood, which main purpose is to observe the city. The building will aim to create an exciting touristic point for the historic city. The top part will contain a camera obscura that will cast an image of the surrounding landscape on to a circle screen. The workshop aims to reach the emotions of the city, its citizens and guests. It plays with inner reflections and often the upside-down understandings we have of what we see. With smaller devices the participants will capture special places from different points of view.

Weaving, swaying, tangling, springing…. C.L.Tangle is about creating timber structures you have never seen before! C.L.Tangle is an experimental workshop into the capabilities of Cross-Laminated Timber, connected with rubber junctions to create fluid forms, interweaving with the urban and natural fabric of Veliko Tarnovo. This junction of steel and rubber liberates C.L.T from its rigid form to create structures which interact with its surroundings and users. Participants will first learn how to fabricate these junctions through mold making and pouring. Participants will then design a simple but adaptable structure which reacts, interacts and connects with its setting through a flowing timber form.

Humans are unpredictable, spatial interaction is complex, our experiment is simple. Let’s hit the streets to see what happens when two strangers meet on the street?! Talk about life’s big questions, dreams, wishes? Try to find out the particular location, the forgotten legend, the darkest street in the city. Try to research the city, find out some secret places, discover interesting stories, famous locals. We will test some street games, we’ll make some urban experiments, to see, how total strangers can find out their commons. We will design secret, unknown, unpredictable »checkpoints«. The final product will be a race during the night through Veliko Tarnovo’s streets, inspired by the urban game »Journey to the end of the night«.

Our workshop will use Chaos as a concept to show the uniqueness of Veliko Tarnovo. As a living organism, city and its inhabitants are always in motion, they interact with each other and every interaction makes it different. Since the Chaos is something unique and unrepeatable, we will use sociological research to reveal symbiotic relationship between people and the city at this very point. All participants will decide which symbiotic quality will be the backbone of our structure. After all info is gained, we will use a holographic projection method to make an actual town scale model that will be defined by dots. The more diverse point, the more dense cluster of dots. And yeah – we are going to use a lot more analogue materials to do that.

Meet the contemporary street art scene, with series of lectures, film projections and practice about “tags”, “Stencils”, “Photorealistic Graffiti” and many others. The idea of the workshop is to introduce different types of street art techniques to the participants and then apply that knowledge on the site or on the creations of other workshops. The participants will offer their services to the tutors of other workshops in exchange the freedom to choose the style and the colors of what they will paint! Only a few of the happenings that may appear are: Painting of the structure or installation, painting the participants with bodypaint, painting portraits of anyone on anything, making a mural on a wall, that could play with spectators perspective.

The workshop is an experiment consisting of individually designed pieces made of fabric formed concrete. First we’ll familiarize the participants with the craft of molding, get to know how concrete works and do some guerrilla-like small interventions around the EASA campus. Afterwards each participant will build its own unique piece, which would later become a symbiotical part of an entire connected structure. .The structure itself represents a stairway-like extension of the dead-end “Tunel” street, leading towards the alienated from the town of Veliko Tarnovo river Yantra. After the preparation on site and installation of the supporting structure and formwork we’ll have enough time for presenting it how it’s done, while waiting for the concrete to dry.

This is not just a workshop. With a comprehensive theoretical foundation and the practical experience of the last years we want to provide a multi-stage process beginning with the focus on individual body awareness developing to a collective spatial experience. Participants will have the opportunity to work on a body centered approach to design. By thinking about the body and thinking through the body we surpass the mere material and raw way of understanding space. Body and mind are a complex symbiotic system with manifold abilities – perceiving and processing are just two basic ones.

This workshop is a tendency to improve Veliko Tarnovo’s cityscape by a visual symbiosis – a panoramic coexistence. We’ll be working together to find the perfect frame that has been visually attacked and turn it into a pleasant space to hang out, with an excellent view. While some structures serve as parasites in the symbiosis process of the city panorama, through our intervention we attempt to reverse this process to a mutual symbiosis. To bring the theory to life we will be creating the illusion of an urban harmony by ‘vanishing’ the parasite structures by “filling up the pixels” of the facade that is blocking the view with what’s behind it, therefore making it visually transparent.

Our goal is to make a park – Small, tiny place for everyone, to enjoy and always remember about EASA 2014. We want to do something useful for Veliko Tarnovo, Make another nice place there. If we can do this, our mission will be complete. First stage is searching for place like a forgotten spot in the city, old square, destroyed park or somthing else we can give a new life. We will be building a bench, 2 chairs with a table, garbage box and tiny lovely houses for the birds. We are going to further detail these with our participants.

EASA TV tries to cover as much of the assembly as possible, the material is then edited, screened on site at the assembly and uploaded online. The participants will learn how to plan episodes, write scripts, draw storyboards, record with DSLR cameras and edit and export the final product. But most of all they will get the chance to document the very essence of EASA, the EASA spirit.

The live broadcasting radio at EASA. Be the network between dots. Connect them by invisible space. Follow us on a journey. 2014 we go mobile. We bought a bus. We will move. Record. Discuss. Dance. For you. You are easa.fm

When there are a lot of people, there is a lot of data. The aim of this workshop is to collect interesting facts and data of EASA 2014 in order to produce an overview of the two weeks in form of images and numbers. We want to work in symbiosis with other workshops, collecting helpful information that can be used for their work. The collected information can be published by collaborating with other workshops such as getting them printed in the Umbrella newspaper, talked about at EASA fm, screened at EASA tv or just made out of paper and other materials which pop up around the EASA sites in Veliko Tarnovo.

With this workshop, we would like to open the eyes of Veliko Tarnovo to the forgotten opportunities that lay hidden on the banks of Yantra. Our participants will be invited to establish new connections between the old city center and the river banks. We will delve deep into the urban tissue of Veliko Tarnovo, observe-eye-the city, explore its physical and mental landscapes and find our own points of interest – dots. Each dot will be connected to the other, guiding the bodies and minds towards the Yantra river, where participants will complete the new connection, by working on their chosen intervention with open eyes and free hands, bringing the focus back to Yantra – dotting her eye.

Live the exciting experience of the practical construction of a geodesic dome. A simple, customizable and flexible system, which leaves plenty of space for adaptation and experimentation will be presented. The knowledge of this lowcost and lowtech system will strengthen the propositional attitudes of the participating students providing them with new tools to face the social, cultural and urban projects that they’ll be willing to develop. We’d like that all the students and tutors energy that will be released during the assembly could result in an ongoing value for the city.

The power and success of guerrilla is based on a symbiosis between people and the site itself. Our mission will consist of a search for inspiring places, constructions and problem areas where the potentials of green are not or insufficiently used. After choosing locations a close analysis into local plant species, growing methods, local climate and potential future care takers will be ready to start. Herbs, sprouts, trees, flowers, grasses, vegetables and every other imaginable green type will become part of the city and other workshops. We will plant on multiple locations and in different creative forms. As a whole, all the green compositions will form the guerrilla garden; a subtle but powerful green network with green in forms and places you do not expect.

Considering the everlasting relationship between man and nature as the archetype of the idea of Symbiosis, handPAWER workshop intents to zoom-in a part of it: the coexistence of people and animals .In cooperation with local animal friendly organizations, this workshop will attempt to design and construct physical models that satisfy their needs – either for hosting animals, or for training and recreational purposes. The participants will visit the local dog/cat hotel in order to understand the conditions animals usually live in, but also think of the difference of the design for an abandoned / stray animal from the one for a domestic pet. Making small 1:1 models such as dog cradles, bird houses and diverse type of objects needed by animals.

Glass and carbon fiber material recently became extremely popular in industries where it is important to achieve strength and lightweight, such as aircraft, vehicles and architecture. It gives opportunity to build thin lightweight translucent structures that can withstand loads and forces. Chemical reaction between fibers and applied resin (with hardener) is giving high performance spectacular results. This material would be used for the FIRST time on EASA. In this workshop every participant will try out being an architect, engineer, chemist and weaver, winding fibers around frames built by them, watching how the glass is born, creating big, attractive translucent lightweight structure that will give a nice shadow in hot summer days.

Let’s start from hay in its various forms, packaged and in bulk, and interpret this change in status as inspired by traditional types of hay storage and by accumulating hay into sheaves. Let’s design using a hay bale as a basic module. Rectangular, cylindrical, big, small: doesn’t matter. Let’s change our point of view. Let’s be influenced by the strong aroma of hay, and dream about rurality. Let’s play! In the first part of the workshop the participants will approach hay design and develop a project, individually or in team. The second part will mainly consist of building the resulting sculptures/ installations. The aim is to produce a series of prototypes of landscape furniture, to be used by everyone in the contest of the EASA. With unpredictable results!

Veliko Tarnovo, with its unique urban situations and amphitheatric spatial organisation, allows the self-emergence of various kinds of public or private, tiny, hidden and unexplored spots, that are full of potential of becoming prominent architectural marks. These spaces, formed completely unintentionally by the surrounding buildings, walls, fences, etc. could become interesting, better-known and activated by the young people with their architectural vision, coming to explore, build and improve this wonderful historical town. Efficiency and strategy-oriented design process with the help of parametric development and automatisation of the design tools. With good planning strategies, right tools and simple ideas, great objects would be designed.

Symбиоза, one element is affected by the behavior of others. Is this how spaces become abandoned? Humans are unpredictable, spatial interaction is complex, our experiment is simple. By suspending a lighting grid over an abandoned space, we seek involvement from passers-by. Lighting transforms a place; inviting, comfortable and safe. In Veliko Tarnovo, a city with rich cultural aspect this project encourages use of outdoor spaces previously unintended for entertainment. The simple technology and construction methods are used. Sensor detect a movement below and activate the corresponding light, how the space is used will determine how it is lit, encouraging movement and interaction with the space, previously abandoned.

«LighType» proposes to the participants to create a common «transcultural typography» between the different alphabets: Latin and Cyrillic. Outside the idea of symbiotic languages, the form of «LighType» will put in perspective Veliko Tarnovo’s cultural, architectural or topographic identity. Through the production of different typographies, we will investigate the city and tend to characterize it. The final result could be developed as an ephemeral projection installation, or materialized as a real painted or sculptural artwork in specific spots. These distinguishing figures will become landmarks for the inhabitants the city. This workshop represents a symbiosis of typography & light, day & night, two of the European alphabets, 2D & 3D.

Any form of reaction / interaction or the sum of those causing any kind of human interrelation of various levels starts from the simplest form of coexistence – sharing a mutual space. If we tried to imagine the very primitive form of coexistence of human beings, there would be no cultural or historical backgrounds, no language, no symbolic values and no other means of communication but the pure presence, or the sum of ‘presences’ being dropped together. The idea of realising the concept is to create enclosed spaces defining the form of human interaction in them. At its best, this would not only be a field of research for the participants, but also an opportunity for the locals to experience a seemingly unexpected relation to spaces and subjects they [think they] know.

The paper pavilion will aim to bridge the communication gap between the EASAians and the locals and to inform and invite the people of Veliko Tarnovo to Symбиоза with the EASA workshops.The workshop will construct a pavilion from industrial paper tubing that will contain :a projection room where the people of Veliko Tarnovo can go and visually see what EASA is all about, a city map of the workshops and other information for EASA. The paper pavilion itself will also exhibit the latent potential of industrial paper tubing construction that is relatively unknown. It’s unwavering accessibility and remarkable durability distinguishes these recyclable structures which are often used for housing shortages in times of natural disasters.

The act of playing, whether considered as an art or a sport, similarly to architecture is a socio-cultural manifestation of an epoch. This workshop seeks to animate public spaces, both metaphorically and literally, through the creation of interactive installations and architectural performances which embody the spirit of play. If games connect people, encourage dialogue and stimulate cooperation, then why shouldn’t architecture? This workshop introduces the world of interactive design from a practical perspective. In order to build interactive systems we will learn physical programming using the Arduino open-source platform. After a brief introduction to world of physical computing, we will develop and fabricate a number of installations which respond to particular sites, within the scope of EASA 2014.

Make a step backward from the visual and the rational. Take the rest: that is what turns space into a place… Architecture is the creation of an atmosphere – a symбиоза of what is perceived by all the different senses. It is the light, the smell, the sound, the touch, the movement, the people and their interactions – these would be the building materials of our labyrinth performance. We propose to you a game that will lead us to the planning, creation and performing of a sacred spatial path of sensorial experiences – a Sensory Labyrinth Theatre (Iwan Brioc). We will gather the creativity of the participants around the site, the architectural topics of today, and the context of EASA, in order to create a quite unusual performance

Skywalk has the ambition to explore the fantasy of height and emptiness. We tend to create an spectacular intervention to respond to the magnificent and unique landscape and relief of Veliko Tarnovo: a strong horizontal line, a big cantilever in the steep of the city.Then we want to reinterpret the traditional bulgarian arbour which is a crucial meeting point for the inhabitants. We’ll take advantage of the spot n°7, the urban window, using materials such as wood and metal, By programming a spot full of potential we will lead the citizen to re-experience their daily space and enter in symbiosis with it, admiring this incredible panorama under the shadow of the grapevine.

Small Interventions history goes back to the very fundamentals of EASA with the name “Fix It” and is organized ever since 2006. Giving back to the community. It is structured on the idea of analyzing the site, detecting problems and places, designing solutions and interventions, and constructing them. The participants will analyze the site in the first place, than address the issues that come up with their own way by intervening in a very functional way in the environment and the assembly surroundings. Theoretical work, models, and detail plans of their intervention will conclude their design work allowing them to work in 1:1 scale by constructing their interventions and putting them in place.

Social practices unfold in a spatial context and thus contribute to its production. Street food is particularly interesting because it has an highly visible, quotidian accessibility, and is a clear sign of cultural character. We can understand the city through street food, the intersection of the preparation of meals and the production of space. We want to leaf through the experience of food consumption in Veliko Tarnovo. We’ll try to set up a new food experience, based on the analysis of the already existing gastronomic scene of the town and enhancing it with our personal contributions.

We will try to accent people’s attention on things, usually unnoticeable. They will see that the city, they live in is unexplored, and everyone can live in symbioza with it. We want to explore a part of urban space and to make it interactive. Through the means of computational design, architecture, programming and music we will gather input data and translate it into acoustic, visual and spatial transformations in realtime mode. We will research, program, built and play in the urban environment.

Veliko Tarnovo spectacular guide book. Spaceguide is a collection of impressions and characters. At the same time it’s a continuous story of discovering cityscape of Veliko Tarnovo. We want to create an image of the city – not as smooth and perfect as it usually appears in guide books. It will be a way more specific, as we focus on questions of urbanism and at the same time very personal – created through perception of newcomers and locals. We propose to explore Veliko Tarnovo through different prisms, levels of perception - to catch the parallel worlds occupying one city scape.

Want to materialize your dream? What is the surreal? What is the feeling of an irrational space? We will create and transform spaces to play with your mind, where atmospheres bring you closer to the imaginary, surreal and strangely pleasant. We will study the art of atmosphere and natural phenomena like fog, shadow, reflection and movement. We will explore how we can build with non- or barely- solid building materials like fabric, light and air, obscuring and altering the world around us. The city is our studio and we are not afraid to experiment.

Objects are determined by their use, which serves as a certain value practical, sentimental, both or even more complex, but sometimes their value change over time. With our workshop we want to reuse or abuse things despite their originally designed purposes to create unexpected situations and objects which raise the original value. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Think Tank_differentlyâ&#x20AC;? is a platform that works on the potential of abandoned war materials by using them differently... like the abandoned rusting tanks along the Bulgarian-Turkish border as relicts of the cold war era. We want to empty the inside and refurbish it for a different use - a kitchen, a chill out space, a mobile dj-wagon, a love box... endless design possibilities.

Umbrella is the longest existing workshop in EASA being there every summer producing newspapers with inspiration, experiences and insight to the micro cosmos that is EASA. You will get to write stories and news, learn how to get to the point and get peoples attention in writing. You also learn how to work together with others and you get to see and report on what all the other workshops are doing. Most importantly, we are there creating and maintaining the EASA-spirit.

Walden is an experiment on modular living in a natural context. An essential construction that highlights the surroundings providing a multiplicity of situations within a basic distribution. Located on the shores of the Yantra river, the workshop will explore new relations between the city and the water working on the interstice and providing new landmarks to the Veliko Tarnovo riverfront. Walden is a construction but also a starting point to new situations and multiple connections, inviting locals to come and explore. Spaces to gather and spaces to isolate, spaces to see and spaces to be seen reactivating an area with a great future potential.

We propose a workshop that reconnects the Yantra River to the Rest of Verliko Tarnovo. This workshop is for those interested in pushing the boundaries of traditional architecture, because we want to examine activities as opposed to physical structures. Our approach emerges from the Sanskrit meaning of Yantra: that of instrument, a tool of control and liberation, that focuses on the processes, structure and organization, depending on the context. We are interested in experimenting with new forms of representing architecture. Ephemeral perfomance that will create long lasting change: the change of perception of the Yantra, and hopefully increase its relevance in the contemporary urban routines of the citizens of VT.

The town of Veliko Tarnovo is a symbiotic product between a unique landscape and history layers that fit organically to the natural canvas. The steep terrain around Yantra River determines the picturesque “stepwise” townscape and its visual perception. The target of the workshop is to provoke the participants’ sensitivity and analysis about Tarnovo’s stepwise urban structure. The workshop will focus on STAIRS in all their meanings, applications, features and symbolic sense, encouraging an attempt for going beyond their well-known everyday role, exploring their potential in new functional, archetypical and metaphoric sense - a link between the simple essence of stairs and their symbolic notions.

Accommodation SYM

“Cyril & Methodius, Saints” Humanitarian High School will accommodate all the participants and NC’s. The building is protected as cultural heritage and was built more than a century ago. It was half demolished by an earthquake in 1917, but then thoroughly rebuild to look like it does today. Dear participants, please…

Infopoint

Situated at the main entrance of accommodation SYM, the central EASA Infopoint will give you all the information about the assembly, the program, locations, duties, events, etc. Alongside this central infopoint, there are infoboards at all major EASA locations. Make sure you check out all the news sprouting there at all times.

Bar & Lounge

Once built for a school, now a complete Symбиоза – workshops, lounge area, bar. Catch some proper fun there, not to mention at night.

Accommodation БИОЗА

A love-at-first-sight building, giving shelter to all the tutors, helpers and organizers is the boarding school for children of laborers in the Bulgarian National Railroads (BDZ). Let the tired ones catch a little proper sleep.

Food yard

Breakfast, lunch distribution and dinner will be enjoyed at the yard in front of Accommodation БИОЗА (BDZ). Make sure you clean up after yourself – you also have a duty for cleaning this spot. DO NOT wash your plate and cutlery in the sinks – there is a special sink provided for that. Behave like civilized people in the queue – it might get long. And after you’re finished go get a beer from the bar to make space for the next hungries.

IT Lab

A bunch of technological workshop will be held here. The building is property of the Bulgarian Union of Architects and was until recently an Architecture Museum. Now it’s even better – EASA 2014’s IT Lab.

“Malka Sarafkina” House

Another Union of Architects in Bulgaria property is the small “Malka Sarafkina” house, situated right next to one of our favorite bars in Tarnovo – Da-Da bar. This lovely Bulgarian Revival period or Vazrojdenska house will shelter various workshops, discussion and other activities.

Art Gallery “Taralej”

One workshop will take place in “Taralej” Gallery, as the artists there are super nice people and provide the space. “Taralej” (meaning hedgehog) also helped a lot in organizing EASA 2014 in Veliko Tarnovo.

“Vazrajdane” Museum

A memorable building in our history, “Konakut” is the place where the Bulgarian State was reclaimed after the Liberation from the Ottoman Empire in 1878. Now another memorable event will take place here – the first lecture of EASA 2014, on a very coherent topic.

“Chitalishte Nadejda”

“Nadejda” (the Bulgarian for Esperanza) will welcome us all for a few lectures during EASA2014. The place is very close to our accommodations. “Chitalishte” – a word without translations, literally means “a reading place”. The “Chitalishte” appeared in the Bulgarian lands during the Ottoman rule, when people in small villages did not have access to proper education provided by the Empire, and were therefore forced to educate each other. The “Chitalishte” was built with the money and hands of local people. The nearly sacred place gathered all the children from nearby villages and well educated people, who travelled along the Bulgarian lands to share their knowledge.

National Art Gallery “Boris Denev”

This emblematic for Veliko Tarnovo building was actually first built as a school and experimental laboratory for veterinarians. At some point it became obvious that the place was really dark because of the lack of windows, and was darkishly transformed into a prison. But then – hey – really a prison on that spot in the city??? And then it became what it is today – The National Art Gallery “Boris Denev”.

“Tsarevets” Fortress

“Tsarevets” is the medieval stronghold located on the hill right next to our accommodations. It served as the Second Bulgarian Empire’s primary fortress and strongest bulwark from 1185 to 1393, housing the royal and the patriarchal palaces, and is a popular tourist attraction. Of course, what is seen today is a reconstruction. We’ll have some fun there.

Born in Burgas. Director of the National Institute for Cultural Heritage. Honorable member of the ICOMOS. President of ICOMOS Bulgaria,President of the Association for Cultural Tourism, Professor in “Conservation of Architectural Cultural Heritage” in Sofia UACEG, and in NBU. Expert in UNESCO on World Heritage with more than 30 international missions on World Heritage (Avignon, Lion, Berlin, Budapest, Sankt Petersburg, Kiev, Baku, Berat, Kotor and others). Director of various projects for Preservation of Cultural Heritage and Cultural tourism, including: Preservation of the Ancient Stadium in Plovdiv; Systems for Cultural Heritage in the urban planning in Sofia, Plovdiv, Veliko Tarnovo; Opening for the public of the Thracian Tomb in Sveshtari, World Heritag; Cultural Route „Rodopska Sveta Gora”; Plan for conservation and management of Old Nessebar, World Heritage and many more.

Imbued with a message from the past, the historic monuments of generations of people remain to the present day as living witnesses of their age-old traditions. People are becoming more and more conscious of the unity of human values and regard ancient monuments as a common heritage. The common responsibility to safeguard them for the future generations is recognized. It is our duty to hand them on in the full richness of their authenticity (Venice Charter 1964, ICOMOS). The contemporary architecture has main role for the transfer of these values among times. Nowadays the civilized architectural attitudes’ main characteristics are sensitivity and attention to the context. More people realize that the contemporary architecture must preserve and enrich the inherited valuable relationships on different levels. In other words the contemporary architecture is in the condition to complete the SYMBIOSIS between past, present and future: the traces from the past would have chance to be preserved for the future and become a resource of the development. The contemporary architecture would receive identity, depth and meaning for the future.

Nature vs Hi Tech, or Symбиоза for future-proof architecture? wednesday, july 23th accommodation биоза 56

Born 1982 in Varna, at the sea coast of Bulgaria, graduated architecture in the UASG, in Sofia at 2006. At that time he is part of couple NGOs connected with ecology and sustainable development. Since then he puts in practice his ideas for energy efficiency, solar and sustainable architecture. In 2010 he is Co-Founder of the Association for Building with Natural Materials. For him, the research of traditional practices as heritage knowledge is of great importance and has to be preserved. The love of natural materials is bringing him with the team ASEM to the laboratories and institutions making the path for the national building codes of natural materials. The result of his work is combination between modern technologies and natural materials as sustainable earth-friendly house witch people usually call “home sweet home”.

In this lecture we will make a free tour trough the most used and common building techniques using natural materials worldwide, that time has approved. Every different place has its own specific climate, and according to that the techniques and architecture have their specific variations. This is knowledge, not old school. What natural materials give us more than the conventional ones and on what cost? The point is not to go backwards or against progress and modern world, even better. To make sustainable future prove architecture using the knowledge from the past combined with our hi-tech reality. We are using more than the half of the raw natural recourses, which are not renewable and most of them as products still not recyclable. By thinking global and acting local, using properly and wisely the natural materials, modern architecture can provide sustainable, affordable and healthier homes for everyone.

Magnanimous Architecture | Sculpture friday, july 25th 路boris denev路 national gallery 58

Jan Doms studied constructive sculpture (practice), Russian avant-garde and urban history (theory) and Material Cultural Studies at Tilburg University, with a specialization in architecture and urban development. In 1978 he started with large scaled multi-disciplinary projects on the edge of sculpture and architecture. In 2001 Doms founded the office for spatial design and research LEF stadsdynamica, which is closely involved with architectural design and urban development related studies in different countries. In 2009 the faculty of Architecture, Building and Planning at Eindhoven Technical University (TU/e) organized a retrospective exhibition.

Magnanimous stands for generous and nobleminded. The lecture gives an insight in the dynamic way of interaction between architecture and sculpture which is characterized by imagination, craftsmanship, humanity and faith. From examples which are part of our ancient Thracian and Roman building history to the manifest presence of the values of Mies van der Rohe in our modern cities, from Nine Eleven to more benevolent performances on the edge of architecture and sculpture. As counterbalance the lecture takes also into account examples of architectural and interior design based on integrity and craftsmanship and related to the daily life of ordinary people. Somehow the lecture will inspire antiestablishment spirits to find new expressive and valuable directions in the fields of architecture (and sculpture), city development, public space and landscape.

one day workshop – Experiment Balkans

live saturday, july 26th ·boris denev · gallery 66

Experiment Balkans wonders upon the perception of the balkan identity through the succesion of three easa stops; Slovenia – Romania – Bulgaria. An archive of mnemonic narratives of easians, through the medium of questionnaires has been collected in INCM 2013, Romania. Experiment Balkans strikes again in Bulgaria in 2014, experimenting over the relations of narrative, space and collective memory of easians throughout their visit to Balkan territories. Following the very structure of the archive, collection – storage – classification, the goal of the workshop is to propose a different type of arhive’s classification in urban space, using the medium of narrative. Having access to the Archive of Experiment Balkans you will be asked to create narratives of Veliko Tarnovo and afterwards place them in the surroundings of the city. What is to be created is a doc-tale, in other words a tale made up of documents and data collected from EASA, under the very special narration of each self. The final target of the participants will be to find relations in between their narrative and the spatial characteristics of the selected spots of Veliko Tarnovo. According to various types of classifications of doc-tales in space, fragmented series

of the samtale will be spread in the town creating their very own special and spatial city ramble. Imagine a city that can be readen, hidden voices of easian’s multicultural tales will be heard, revealing the complexity of macro – narrative of the Balkan symbioza!

eing part of EASA is great. Therefore it carries great responsibilities. Here are some basic things you should know:

Duties

Maintaining the whole campus running and comfortable is a responsibility for each one of us. Therefore the so-called Duties rise about. During the two weeks every country has two Duties: Morning cleanup (cleaning all the venues): accommodation SYM building and yard, toilets, Food yard, Bar & lounge, workshop areas at the yards; Serving breakfast; Lunch preparation; Dinner preparation; Serving dinner; All the information about your duty is at the Infopoint. Be there with your team at the time of the particular duty to get the tools and instruction needed. You can see a detailed schedule of the duties in the first pages of this pack.

Workshops

Your workshop is your most important endeavor. Be devoted, put your heart into it. Never hesitate to ask you tutor about anything unclear you have regarding the work. And donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the output of your workshop is a precious pearl for your portfolio. And be safe. a..!

Your NC

If you have anything unclear regarding the assembly, organizational questions, or if you see some problems around dur-

ing EASA – contact your NC. It is his/her responsibility to help you, or to pass on any of these issues to the organizers. And really, whenever you see something wrong around – don’t just wait for things to fix themselves – you are an active part of the whole family.

Meetings

For the smooth and fruitful development of EASA there are daily meetings between the organizers, NCs, tutors and helpers. These are not scheduled in advance, but when there is a need for a meeting it will be announced earlier at the infopoins.

Tokens EASA even has its own currency: the almighty Token. All the goods available at the bar and the infopoint are exchanged for tokens which you get from the infopoint (and bar). One Token costs 20 Leva and contains 20 Token points. Paying Tokens in Euro is also possible, but one token point will be charged for the exchange (one Euro equals 1.95 Leva).

Security Access to all the EASA locations is only possible with the Symбиоза wristband provided on you registration. DO NOT give your wristband to anybody – you will not be given a new one. Be responsible for our campus – if you see anyone without a wristband in the EASA locations immediately tell the security guy or any of the organizers/helpers. Wristband legend: Blue – Participants & NCs; Green – Helpers; Black – Tutors; Red – Organizers. There is a security guy at Accommodation SYM (yard), Accommodation БИОЗА (workshops yard) and Bar & lounge. Nevertheless, keep an eye on all worths that you leave outside, as the well-known Gypsy Neighborhood is just next block.

Noise in public Have in mind that we are actually all situated in a residential area. Please keep quiet in the late hours, as natives want to sleep, too.

Smoking & fire safety

NO SMOKING is allowed in any of the buildings. We don’t want to burn down the campus. Enjoy your smokes in the many marvelous yards around.

Waste

Keep the campus clean, really. Use the recycling bins properly – blue for paper, yellow for plastic and metal. All the general waste goes to the metal containers.

EASA Spirit

The one thing that makes EASA a unique and special community is the almighty EASA Spirit: the sublime feeling of being a part of a larger whole. Enjoy Symбиоза responsibly.

n November 2012, at the International meeting of EASA coordinators /INCM/ held in Vienna, two teams bid to host the assembly of 2014: Portugal and Bulgaria. Both teams made splendid presentations of their concepts, followed by two days of intense discussions. After extensive debates about the two proposals, the national coordinators reached consensus â&#x20AC;&#x201C; EASA 2014 is going to Bulgaria. We here express our boundless appreciation of the Portuguese presentation and their lovely team, who were beyond inspirational. We are sure EASA is going to Portugal soon. We also want to praise the Austrian team, who not only made a brilliant organization of the INCM, but shared their best of warmth and hospitality, providing a life-changing, unforgettable event. Thank you!

Thanks to: We would like to thank the Municipality of Veliko Tarnovo, who made this event possible. Especially, to the major of Veliko Tarnovo, Daniel Panov. We are grateful for the priceless support from the Chamber of Architects in Bulgaria, The Union of Architects in Bulgaria. Huge thanks to the Austrian Embassy and The Italian Cultural Institute in Sofia. Special thanks to One Architecture Week, who not only included EASA in their events, but shared their best of experience with us, to DUPINI Art Group, “Art Summer” Foundation, “TAM”, ‘Taralej’ Gallery, ‘Projektirane’ Studio and ‘Transformatori’ Association. A huge THANK YOU to all the tutors and their lovely workshop projects, to all the helpers that make this event run smooth and to all NCs who were loyal in the communication for organizing this EASA. A massive shout out goes to all the people of EASA – all easians, which are lovely and kept us vigorously inspired in organizing EASA 2014. Much love to the Wastelands (EASA 2012 – Helsinki, Finland), as well as the teams of Slovenia and Spain, who we kept buzzing with questions. And thank you Sasha! Thanks to all the media in Bulgaria and abroad who give our efforts a strong voice. Huge thanks to our families and friends for their understanding, warm support and belief.
