Slow cup

Motto:

"Koncept Slow Travel, czyli podróżowanie, które nie polega na zaliczaniu jak największej liczby miejsc i zabytków ani na zapaści w skomercjalizowaną symulację tropikalnych osad, ale na opartej na downshiftingu próbie głębszego poznania jednego miejsca i - używając metaforyki ruchu slow - "nawiązania łączności" z jego lokalnym charakterem."
(fragment artykułu Jana Sowy z ogólnopolskiego kwartalnika projektowego 2+3D, # 22 2007; s.72)

fragment kubka który trafil do mnie podrozował zgodnie z ruchem slow...podróz rozpoczął i zakończył dokładnie w tym samym miejscu...na mojej pralce!

"nawiązywał łączność" z moim mieszkaniem, wybrał sobie najlesze po temu miejsce - łazienkę, a dokładniej miejscówkę na pralce. miejsce najbardziej zaufane i intymne. Podrózował w podskokach kiedy wirowała pralka i tak przez parę tygodni nasiąkł atmosferą tego domu.czego się dowiedział i co zobaczył to już jego słodka tajemnica.

Teraz przesiadł się z jednej kosmetyczki do drugiej, zobaczymy gdzie ta go zabierze?

It traveled to Den hage, London, utrecht, and around asmterdam a lot

> Can you describe those trips?

When I just gt it I went to england with the cup and took it to see the
tate modern,
than we have a coffee at trafalgar square, and went to the national
gallery, during the evening we went to a nice club and saw a concert, it
was playing soul wax. It asked for a beer, but I hd no money at all, so
I gave it a bit of my MDMA we got some water and danced a lot, than we
went to a travesty club, was very nice to see those old "ladies" siting
and having tea. We saw a very weird scene of gay sex, than we went home.
The fallowing morning we went to the airport to say bye to my girlfriend
than I came back to netherlands, it was supose to go to brazil with her,
but she forgot it, so I had to take it back, now I'm gonna give it to
her again this week.

> Have you been doing any documentation of those trips?

unfortunaly I could not make any documentation than writing about it.
I have no camera to photography it.

> Can you make a map of those journeys?

I can make sort of a map.

> Do you know any unusual travel documentation?

I like taking notes and pictures, and lately I've been taking moving
pictures with a DV Cam, but its not unusual

Is it enought? what else should I do? draw a map?
make a journal about the trips?

hey szu,

here is my report from the cup. i'm going to try to do it quick because at this time i'm moving to a different home and it's hard for me to find time.
my name is ea maria polman. originally i'm from Hoorn, The Netherlands. my cup is in the bag i baught in berlin this summer. i take this bag everywhere. to school, to dinner partys. i am moving for the second time with it. first we lived together at the east of amsterdam in the appartment of my big sister. my cup was there when i had problems with the break up with my boyfriend. then we moved to the haarlemmerplein which is in the west centre of amsterdam. meanwhile we moved to hoorn severall times to my parrents. we travelled by train. the train stopped at zaandam, zaandam kogerveld, purmerent, purmerent overwhereeveryday i biked to school. it took us half an hour to get there. we went trough the vondelpark everyday and saw how the trees lost there leefs. this cup was with me atthe weardess mments. when i went to the toilet, to a bar, while people presented
the wordk, the cup was there, in a corner, silently lisentning in. now i'm moving to the nieuwe achtergracht but it is here, in my final home that the cup and i are going to say goodbey. i'm going to hand it over to Re'em who is going to israel in a few days. it's weard but the cup has become a part of my traveling logage. it is something i miss when it's not there. i could make a map of the places we wnt to but i think it would be more beatifull to let this road be. it went with me on my paths. i will never be able to report all the places it's been.
i hope you'll have enough information for now. if not call me so i can tell you personally. i don't have internet so im not really reachable by mail.
good luck with the beoordeling.

kiss Ea

START...

2007-09-26T10:13:00.000-07:00

From this form we started our journey.

I bought this cup during dance festival in Bytom.Small industrial town in south of Poland.Old,red faced,alcoholic woman was selling some of more valuable items from her house to collect money for her addiction.The cup started to travel with me from Bytom via Krakow,Warsaw, to Amsterdam.And here it started to leek...
During Mix Media classes I had an assignment to bring it into life one more time by giving it different function to the original one.I was thinking about some social interaction and also I wanted to develop "traveling object" issue...

So it has changed....
