Digging a pit, jama, in era of perpetual decay, when something is constantly falling into it, is a Sisyphean task. But we are getting used to it; after all, it has almost become folklore lately.<\/p>\n

Nothing, and thus not even this pit, can be thought about without context \u2013 without a connection to the environment in which everything forms an inseparable whole, an overlapping arrangement. Situations, organisms, human behavior, in fact, everything exists in its form precisely when there is an environment in which these phenomena appear and manifest \u2013 as if by themselves.<\/em><\/p>\n

If the environment creates extreme phenomena, its center often collapses under its weight, and its edges, the peripheries, begin to absorb properties from other environments more strongly, thus changing their qualities, nature, and character.<\/p>\n

This phenomenon could be aptly named \u2013 let\u2019s call it peripheral osmosis<\/em>. We often observe it in human-created environments as well. We refer to it as a pressure towards change<\/em>. It is a set of practices that challenge, provoke, criticize, deconstruct, recombine, reformulate, shift, dislocate, threaten, or reject local (central) standards, typically emerging from below.<\/p>\n

Our environment is JAMA.<\/p>\n

It is already mixing nicely within it. It is almost boiling, also from below, from a well-fertilized cultural substrate, on a spectrum ranging from simple effortfulness to local legends to artistic peripheries.<\/p>\n

At JAMA 78, we will explore the substrate where it all ripens and bubbles. D\u017eumelec will take us on a thought expedition to one of the \u0160tiavnica’s many pits, while Robo \u0160varc will guide us through a historical introduction to civil resistance and the “DIY revolution”. We will celebrate ordinary inventiveness, both in art and in the kitchen \u2013 Dominik Hlinka will connect us with rural fantasy, and D\u00e1vid Koronczi with culinary magic. We will explore just intonation from non-European peripheries at the concerts of Catherine Lamb and EnsembleSpectrum.<\/p>\n

From living rooms and secondhand bookstores, (pop)cultural peripheries will arrive at JAMA: fandom and community creation \u2013 in a lecture by J\u00e1n Kralovi\u010d on sci-fi fanzines in Czechoslovakia, which shaped past visions of humanity about the possibilities of future humankinds.<\/p>\n

We will map local and global mythology. Kasha Potrohosh is already preparing spells and superstitions coded for the needs of late capitalism. We will also get to know the mythical seven women who either drowned in a tailings pond, died from a lightning strike, or perished in some other way. All depends on whom you ask.<\/p><\/div>

We will try life in the discomfort of indirect paths and peripheral halls. The route from Bansk\u00e1 \u0160tiavnica to the pub in Bansk\u00e1 Bel\u00e1 has never been so winding. We will visit meadows, forests, mines, and barns. We will dirty our hands with baked potatoes prepared for JAMA by Zuzana Bodn\u00e1rov\u00e1 and Sv\u00e4topluk Mikyta.<\/p>\n

And you will get involved too! Who said that at JAMA you must only be a spectator? Everyone can grab a pickaxe or a shovel \u2013 in the performances of Celest\u00edna Minichov\u00e1 and Petra Fornayov\u00e1, and maybe even beyond. Let’s not fall into the abyss of passivity, people! We are digging a pit of creativity, interconnectedness, and variability, which is healing and beneficial.<\/p>\n

We will roll up our sleeves on October 11 and 12, at the last summer festival of the year. Just in case, pack your boots, jackets, raincoats and swimsuits, as always. Climate change is, after all, just another type of peripheral osmosis that must be counted in.<\/p>\n

Welcome to JAMA 78.<\/p>\n
