#TransActing Programme: Short intro

Critical Practice
#TransActing: A Market of Values
Saturday 11th July 2015, 12–5pm
Rootstein Hopkins Parade Ground at Chelsea College of Arts

This bustling pop-up market features artists, designers, civil-society groups, academics, ecologists, activists and others exploring existing structures of evaluation and producing desirable alternatives. Organised by Critical Practice, #TransActing is taking place on the historic Rootstein Hopkins Parade Ground and is showcasing -amongst others- a skillshare, a peoples bureau, organ donation, an economy of promises, commoners, a fablab, a bring your own BBQ, virtuous communities, a speakers’ corner—even a kiosk buying tears. Multiple currencies are circulating, not all of them monetary.

#TransActing is taking place in bespoke stalls built by Critical Practice, Public Works and other contributors. These stands are interspersed with spaces of assembly and exchange - a speakers' corner, and a social cinema, it's wealth beyond capital that is traded at this market.
