Fundur til að ræða stofnun félagsins Ísland – Kúrdistan.
//
A meeting to discuss the founding of Iceland- kurdistan.

Eugene Imotu was deported to Nigeria and separated from his children last June, his family received the residence permit in Iceland two months later. He is now however asked to pay about 1.14 million Icelandic krona to the State (cost of his custody and detention by 4 police officers) before his case can be presented back to the immigration Office. A first event (a concert) was organized in January to start raising the money, the 24th of March we will organize a second fundraising event, family friendly, to help Eugene come back to his children. Come to have a good time at Andrými, there will be food and activities for the children.
The detailed program will be presented later.
This event will be vegan friendly.

Við erum hópur fjölskyldna sem komum saman í Andrými þar sem við skipuleggjum vikulega viðburði á sunnudögum. Komið og takið þátt í að skipuleggja þann heim sem við viljum skapa fyrir fjölskyldurnar okkar, og hjálpið okkur við að láta framtíðarsýn verða að veruleika.
Ykkur er velkomið að koma með mat fyrir fjölskyldu ykkar, og einnig til að deila með öðrum ef þið viljið. Vinsamlegast látið vita ef einhver fjölskyldumeðlimur er með fæðuóþol eða þarfnast aðstoðar, t.d. vegna fötlunar eða öryggis, og við reynum að sjá til þess að allir geti verið öruggir og notið sín.
Við viljum skapa umhverfi sem er skemmtilegt, en um leið berjumst við gegn félagslegri kúgun og umberum hvorki mismunun né ofbeldi. Ætlunin er að viðburðirnir séu aðgengilegir öllum, óháð einstaklingsgetu.
Við bjóðum sérstaklega velkomna þá einstaklinga sem finnst þeir vera jaðarsettir, kúgaðir eða ekki eiga heima í öðrum fjölskyldusamkundum. Sem hluti af Andrými félagshreyfingunni, leggjum við áherslu á samstöðu með þeim sem eru kúgaðir, stuðning við náttúruna, baráttu gegn ofbeldi – þar með talið efnahagslegt ofbeldi – og hvetjum til þátttöku í sameiginlegri ákvarðanatöku.

———————————–
We are a group of families who meet in Andrými where we organize weekly events on Sundays.
Please join us to relax, talk, create, plan, build, construct, deconstruct, and form the world we want for ourselves and our families. You are welcome to bring food for your family, and to share, if you would like. If someone in your family has special needs (accessibility, safety, allergies, etc.) we will try to make the space and activities safe and enjoyable for everybody! There is space to relax and some tea and coffee.
We are cultivating an environment for fun and reflection where we fight oppression and do not allow discrimination and violence. The space where we meet, and the activities we organize, are intended to be accessible to people of all different abilities, and we welcome people who may have felt marginalized or excluded from other family groups. As a part of the Andrými social cooperative, we adhere to the policies of solidarity with oppressed people, support of the natural world, fight against violence including economic violence, and encourage collective decision making.
Sundays

Bergþórugata 20

Accessibility:

The building is currently not wheelchair accessible, unfortunately, but it is our top priority to make it so. An architect is already working on drawing a ramp and making an accessible bathroom in the space.

There is a step before the garden gate and then 5 steps leading to the main entrance, each 17 cm high, door widths in the building vary between 50 cm (upstairs washroom door) and 80 cm (entrance door), and the washrooms are so far only on the upper floor and in the basement. The door to the meeting room is 75 cm wide (as most other doors in the building).

Both washrooms in the building are gender neutral.

Projekt Polska is organising an Easter meeting and welcomes everybody that wants to participate.

This workshop is dedicated to all people who want to start using their laptop as a source of creative output.
No prior knowledge about anything regarding music production, or music at all is required.
You’re welcome to bring Your laptop with You. Download and install free version of Ableton before https://www.ableton.com/en/products/live-lite/
On this workshop we’ll try to cover basic concepts of music production using Ableton:
1. Ableton overview – intuitive and easy DAW (Digital Audio Workstation)
2. How to create and export Your first project in session view ?
– midi/audio channels
– importing and launching clips
– recording Your session
3. Virtual instruments what are they, where I can get them and how to use them ?
– Technical introduction (nothing too complicated, frequently spotted problems)
– Piano roll and programming MIDI
– Some of Ableton’s instruments
4. Q&A

Fyrst og fremst hatha jóga en ýmsum stílum hennt inn. // Hatha yoga and also some other styles.
Accessibility:
I don’t have any prior experience in teaching yoga to people with disabilities but I will do my best to help attendees to adjust poses that they otherwise could not do or point out poses/exercises that they can do instead.

…but what do you mean by “the Other”? i’d hear it frequently after gigs and performances; “that surely was something e l s e”. oh, was it? that’s like one ideal casual commentary. it doesn’t even imply neither negativity nor positivity. and yet, when we contact with an object from which we differ, it’s hardly ever neutral. but not in an easy dichotomic way – it’s tricky to decode. which assumptions were quick, which were not rooted in our own preferences? one can easily fall for hatred or fetishization of the Other. capitalist society made us all dive unconsciously into the perils of individualism early at our lives, where we swirl around neglecting and embracing our unclear otherness.
it needs contemplation and critique. self-critique, perhaps? that’s what on our (?) minds.
the music this night will be provided by Kinga Kozłowska (aka Teenage Lightning), Szymon Keler and Miłosz Cirocki (aka Niemy Dotyk). we will be playing collage DJ sets about our understanding of the notion of the Other. the political frame is obvious – we’re all Poles, semi-proud leaders of immigration, with basic Icelandic skills, and we are asking ourselves, how do we perceive our otherness here? but the metaphorical sense remains open to interpretation, and that’s what we invite you to.
