THIS DOES NOT FIT HERE
When asked what he thought of the media freshness, one Pfafflar resident replied: "It doesn't fit here."
If something doesn't fit, then something seems to be disruptive, contradictory, skewed, off, not right. Something contradictory, inconsistent does not fit in a certain place, in a certain position. It falls out of the frame, dances out of line, gets out of tune, goes off track. Perhaps it is precisely the perfectly functioning programmes, the smooth procedures, the seamless processes that bring us closer to disaster. If something doesn't seem to fit in a certain place, this disparity, this disruption can also be seen and used as an opportunity to change one's own perception, the situation on the ground and as a socio-political productive force.
We are therefore looking for errors in the system, holes in the net, unheard-of sounds, space-blasting movements, wrong numbers, disproportionate sizes, contradictory images. We ask you for projects, ideas, suggestions that don't seem to fit into the Pfafflar community, but are supposed to appear, emerge and emerge there in order to question the usual course of things in a productive, creative and playful way.
