TTT_Touring
The first session of the new 'touring' version of Transforma Think Tank (TTT) will take place from March 14th-15th 2008 in Porto, Portugal.
The theme of this TTT Porto 2008 session is "How can we connect creative spaces to creative cities and their creative inhabitants?" Each participant in the group is cordially invited to make a concise ten minute presentation on the above topic. The group will then discuss the theme in more detail over the course of one and a half days.
TTT is a platform for informal discussion on a micro level about the past, present and future role of creativity as a catalyst for socio-economic trends. On a macro level the EU has noted the need for more investment in innovation and knowledge transfer. This was stressed at the Lisbon summit in 2000.
TTT is co-produced by Transforma, a leading Portuguese cultural association, and Michael DaCosta. Transforma operates in the creative 'space' between the city, its citizens (local community) and a city's cultural spaces. It is especially interested in hybrid creativity...The TTT events are about thinking and acting in this 'creative space', with its other stakeholders but from the perspective of the creative community, and the potential for Transforma to prompt said hybrid creativity.
TTT was first launched in 2006. It is a reflection on creativity by YOU the stakeholders of the creative sector: academics, media owners, brand owners, policy makers, local community members, policy makers and of course creative practitioners across all disciplines.
